UPS

[AirShot]

Depends on where you live, in my area, UPS is the best, then the USPS, and fedex is terrible !! On rare ocassions where fedex is a must, the truck pulls in the drive, opens the truck door and throws the pkg into the driveway !! Rain or shine or snow makes no difference. What ever service works in your area....be thankfull !!

Boycot UPS is my new mantra.


I tried to ship a rifle scope yesterday through UPS.


This was the conversation

The clerk said.:
what’s in package?

I replied:
A rifle scope.

Clerk said:
We don’t ship gun parts.

I said:
But it’s just a telescopic sight.

Clerk:
If it goes on a gun we won’t ship it.


I swore under my breath and left with my package and shipped with FedEx across the street.

FedEx only wanted to know if anything dangerous was in package .



UPS will never ship anything I need or send ever again.

Boycot "woke" companies and their ridiculous policies.

It's my understanding that the policy is not a social statement, but is lawyer driven.

The lawyers fear that anything gun elated shipped that is then proven to have been used in a crime may bring the heat down on the company,
IMO Lawsuits & money are the motivators

Ok. Yeah, nah.
Woke or not it is a BS policy spurred on by milquetoast legal eagles and corporate boobs and that deserves to be called out too.
I’ll add…bet they still ship knives and swords and other potentially deadly weapons without care.
I’m ranting on I realize but in these times policy dictates and influences the actions of both companies and consumers.

I was told by a gun store owner when I shipped ammo and gun parts with UPS, say sporting goods. It worked for me but I guess they could quiz you further on it. Don't know what the liabilty is if you lie. If damages, probably a UPS civil suit on you. But if they just catch you, thinking you would only get banned.

usually this is a store statement and misinterpreted by the clerk . I went into ups on the south side of town and got refused , went across town and no questions asked and i said it was a bb gun.
And it could have been just that clerk not the store .

Why not use the USPS? They'll ship pb except handguns and ammo. That was right from the post master his self. Airguns are no problem.

My Local PostMaster knows exactly what I'm shipping and never blinks an eye!
Of course She also Deer Hunts so is one Cool Lady!

Somebody on this forum posted that USPS did not honor their liability insurance on a damage good. Not sure if others had any problems. My only problem is twice they did not have enough cash at a big post office to pay a $85 USPS money order.

 

[Privateer]

My Bank cashs them

 

[beerthief]

from past conversations i am strongly thinking it is the individual clerk @ UPS

Here we go again. Because ups won't ship your scope they are labeled "woke". Sad

 

[Mr303]

Ok woke might be an incorrect usage.….they still won’t get my money.

 

[Privateer]

I just do what any Politician does if UPS askes me questions.
I LIE my arse off just to get the package shipped!

 

[JKaplanwit]

It’s official. UPS is on strike.

Well, I was at work last night. I plan on working tonight. And the rest of this week. And next week. I will be at work though the end of the month.
So I'm thinking you either misread an article about a POTENTIAL strike or you saw a hub doing a run through of how a strike would look at the hub.

Since woke (in this context) is not a real word the definition is rather fluid much like the ideologies. Dictionary dot com states "Disparaging. of or relating to a liberal progressive orthodoxy, especially promoting inclusive policies or ideologies that welcome or embrace ethnic, racial, or sexual minorities."

Anti 2a/gun is a liberal progressive orthodoxy, so it works.

and that is my non political, political post for the day...
