[QUOTE="Gru, post: 270954, member: 7032"] I used to load the brown trucks. This time of the year they are handling >400% of normal load. The trucks get filled floor to ceiling, front to back as best as the pre-loader can do, then drivers have to backtrack to handle missed packages (if your driver is usually good, be nice to them-it's not their fault!).. That said, it's rarely the local delivery that screws things up, it's the process of getting the package to the local hub that is at fault. Each year around Thanksgiving I remind my accounts that delivery schedules are now questionable. I send them tracking information so they know I sent it on time, and the rest is a crap shoot.
