They value that contract so much that they will bend over backwards for both you and Apple to get it resolved, like same day 1 hour the driver will unfuck whatever mistake he did. One year I worked UPS during peak season for extra cash, and the number of times I went searching for a missing Apple product during preload shift was astonishing.</text><parent_chain><item><author>hinkley</author><text>My ex incorporated for reasons I no longer recall, but is important at the climax of this story.&lt;p&gt;I helped her pick out a monitor, which was to be delivered by UPS. UPS receives it, moves it, and then nothing for days. For a week. She calls. They can’t find it. Thee weeks go by and we have escalated through recriminations.

Several of my friends have thought I was joking about the UPS curse, and then they knew me longer and found out I am cursed (I joke that I must have dissed some manager and didn’t know it).

They ship with a small onboarding kit (instructions and a small network “puck” that VPNs the devices to a specific network). With this particular model, which is new to us, that kit pushed the weight of the box to 76 lbs, 9 oz. The limit is 75lbs.&lt;p&gt;So we got an exception notice that it’s overweight and cannot be delivered as a result, so we can pay for return shipping or pick it up. Fine. Our bad, we’ll just rent a truck and pick them up. Turns out… when something is  big to ship, they are shipped to be held in Texas, &lt;i&gt;3,000 miles away&lt;/i&gt;.</text><parent_chain><item><author>hinkley</author><text>My ex incorporated for reasons I no longer recall, but is important at the climax of this story.&lt;p&gt;I helped her pick out a monitor, which was to be delivered by UPS.
