Hey Gear, if this is halfway through the midpoint of the week, is it hump hour? Busy day today. Had to present to regional leadership for my boss, which went well. Then donated blood. Now I have to chair a meeting for my boss, attend two more. Then we're over the busiest day before Christmas. Good show last night with a couple more winners coming up to wind up the year.

Nice couple of days to end out the week. Today is a managers' holiday reception which apparently an afternoon of hors d'oeuvres and gifts. Then tomorrow afternoon is our dept holiday party at my boss' house. I hope I make Gear proud.

Go with low expectations and because you have to show up. Fill up on goodies for at least an hour…then leave and blame your children or the cat!

This is the way!
 
Your freestyle is going to be just saying with no numbers just “BAIL! BAIL!”

Me: Hi, I had a delivery attempt for a package yesterday that needs an adult signature. I tried to have it held for pick-up with the app, but there's an err and nobody will be home today either.

UPS: Gotcha, we'll transfer you to our super duper helper line where they can do it for you.

Me: Repeats story to VIP helper guy

VIP UPS: Ahhh nope, the address you used when you created your account isn't where this is being shipped to. That's why you can't do it. The shipper needs to change it.

Me: Well, it's worked before. And the shipper can't ship to UPS stores I've already asked. Can you just put on the hold?

VIP UPS: No sorry. You need to contact the sender and have them change it.

Me: I already told you, their system will only allow residential addresses. What if I change my address in the system?

VIP UPS: No sorry, since the shipment is already linked with your account it won't work.

Me: So, you can't hold it, I can't hold it, the shipper can't hold it. So I just can't buy from this vendor any more?

VIP USP: Sorry, you'll need to contact the shipper.

-- Call ends --

Me: Changes address in the system and it works. :rolleyes:
