I have always hated UPS. This is the crappiest delivery company on the planet. Brown = poop. Never had a good experience with this company. This time I have a delivery that requires a signature. But I'm not home from 8 to 5 on weekdays, and they only deliver from 8 to 5 on weekdays.
I can't choose a time in which the package is delivered, only the date. So they are going to waste a trip to my house because they won't work with me to schedule a time in which I will be able to provide a signature. I wonder how many trips UPS wastes every year because they are inflexible. Of course they won't deliver on weekends. Who in the hell would want to receive a package on a Saturday?
I tried changing the mailing address for delivery and I was told that they have to make an attempt again before I can change the delivery address.
Very inflexible.
Very stupid.
Pea-brains in charge at UPS.

My last UPS delivery was -- ahem -- a case of wine. The same hour restrictions apply up here making it impossible for anyone who works days to accept deliveries. But because alcohol was involved, they needed an adult signature too. I left a letter as a signature proxy. Didn't work. Finally, I gave the five year old boy next door five dollars and power of attorney to watch for the truck, and sign for the delivery. It worked, but the child's father (my friend) took a bottle as compensation for any future delinquency this may cause. My suggestion to you, therefore, is to tie a letter to Ruby's collar insisting that her paw print represent you in every legal sense.
