FedEx guy just delivered my TV!
 
The FedEx guy just delivered my TV and was nice enough to not bother me by ringing the door bell.

How much should I tip him?



Nikki_Licks 12-21-2011 09:35 AM

yea, saw that on the news this morning. I am sure this guy will be losing his job ;)

Rochard 12-21-2011 09:48 AM

Is that real? You've got to be kidding me.

BIGTYMER 12-21-2011 09:48 AM

That is why I stopped mailing via FedEx. Tons of customers complaining about broken items.. They straight manhandle shit.

BlackCrayon 12-21-2011 09:49 AM

thats pretty funny. he was probably pissed delivering shit to some rich dudes house and now he loses his job and becomes even poorer because of it. instant karma.

Not really mine but the delivery was real and FedEx says they are investigating and appropriate actions will be taken.

What was the old slogan?

"When it absolutely positively has to be there on time"

Just not in one piece...

Operator 12-21-2011 09:52 AM

Time out for Karma

So true...:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

potter 12-21-2011 10:35 AM

Meh, those things are package to handle that kind of drop. Otherwise the companies would lose half their inventory when shipped.

Spunky 12-21-2011 11:07 AM

The same happens here,The same with UPS..they leave my shit on the front yard and don't bother ringing the bell

Scott McD 12-21-2011 11:10 AM

What an idiot!

Hopefully he's now out of a job...

CYF 12-21-2011 01:26 PM

That's how UPS packs their trucks. Loaders throw shit wherever it'll fit.

Jarmusch 12-21-2011 01:29 PM

Looks like he threw it on the grass, so it should be ok.

crockett 12-21-2011 02:08 PM

The TV is probably fine. It's a long flat box he tossed it into the grass so it would land flat. TVs & Monitors are pretty damn snug inside those boxes.

They get thrown around quite a bit going from the factories that make them, to the various distributors that ship them to stores or where ever.

D Ghost 12-21-2011 02:25 PM

Out of control

xNetworx 12-21-2011 02:55 PM

Looks fake to me. Box seemed too light

Is it ever really a good idea to throw electronics around?

Its not about getting scratched or dented as much as its the sudden jarring of impact.

You ever notice how all the TVs in boxes that are in stores like best Buy and Walmart are stacked vertically. When I bought my Plasma a few years ago it had a warning on the box not to lay it flat and to keep the TV upright at all times.

I'll bet the TVs are handled correctly from manufacturer all the way to the retailer ( shrink wrapped on pallets ) until the douchebag sales guy gets to throw it around in the back of the showroom :winkwink:

I think the internet gives people too much irrelevant shit to complain about. Look at all the asshats in this thread wishing the guy loses his job and this and that and yadda yadda yadda.

Seriously - who gives a fuck. A guy threw a box. Whoopidy fucking dooo!

bronco67 12-22-2011 02:47 PM

That's taking pride in your work, right there.

Doesn't make it cool for that idiot to toss it around like that. He should definitely be fired for lack of respect, but also just beaten to a pulp by a biker gang for mistreating electronics in that way.

brassmonkey 12-22-2011 03:07 PM

looks fake

Verbal 12-22-2011 03:14 PM

It's not fake, The guy has not been fired yet. The TV was broken and the guy who ordered it was home at the time.

What kind of stupid attitude is that? Don't you ever order products via mailorder for yourself or others? How would you like the UPS driver, Fedex driver or USPS mail carrier to throw your valuable packages around?

tabasco 12-22-2011 05:00 PM

Imagine what happens in the delivery depots.

there is probably a guy inside the truck, catching the boxes the way he's throwing them :2 cents:

iwiiiiiiiiii 12-22-2011 05:34 PM

Can't believe it's true, looks fake to me, box looks too light ! ---> ok it's be told !

But the box does not seem to have a packing slip, this could be a viral video

cosis 12-22-2011 09:26 PM

There is a new vid of a UPS driver doing something similar.

I used to load trucks for UPS in highschool; it was way worse than that. During orientation they make you watch about an hour worth of videos on how to properly stack the boxes to form a wall; how to use the hand-to-surface method of handling the boxes which basically means that a package should never be dropped or thrown, not even an inch. About 20 minutes after you start you realize that this is practically impossible to do unless you're Superman. You work a four hour shift, no breaks, and during that time you're loading an endless flow of packages; about 2,000 packages a night I loaded. You can move as fast as you can and still not keep up with the flow. Two guys to a truck and we would load two trailers, jam packed, a night.

The way the hub is set up they have the unload section on one end where the incoming trailers get unloaded. The packages make their way through a maze of elevated conveyor belts about 30 feet high that snakes its way throughout the hub to the load section where people sort the packages according to where they're going and toss them down chutes into the corresponding trucks. The trailers themselves have a roller line built into them that runs down the middle of the trailer front to back that's supposed to carry the packages right to you. Nothing ever runs smoothly though. The chutes get jammed up and packages overflow onto the loading dock. The packages bust open and spill their contents all over the truck. People don't stack boxes right and whole walls of packages collapse. It was a fucking madhouse. You figure you got a couple million packages a day moving through one hub.
