Wow, he got fired for giving the finger to an inanimate security cam. I think it had more to do with the media hooplah created over this giving UPS a bad name, than the actual "offense".

How this got so much media attention is pretty sad with all the crap going on today.

[quote=okaydorothy;22253613]But she got it right? So why would she call and say she didnt get it? So now if she does call and say she never got it, she gets a free TV.

Because she is trash. You know what happens when you hang around trash. ANd look what she is teaching her son.

I'd rather hear about crappy UPS drivers than who the Kardashians are sleeping with, or how the Repubs channel holy spirits to tell them to run for office.

Not gonna lie. I have no idea who the Kardashians are and what their story is. I do know that we're inches from invading Iran, Israel wants to attack them and they have one of our drones.

Here's what the homeowner wrote:
Out of no where he gave the camera a finger. I always tip my ups and FedEx guys for the holidays and never had problem with them. It was a temp worker. I called ups, sent the picture and even told them I'm sure the guy is having a bad day and didn't want him getting fired for this. All I wanted was a apology from the temp worker --- that's hardly something that belongs on the front page of media outlets.

If the media wanted a real story, they should put CCTVs up on the workers at the loading docks and distribution centers. Half of UPS would be fired, going by what I've heard about mishandling of the packages there.

I agree, but you and I both know that many of the US news outlets would rather run a story about a stupid UPS driver than real news.

While I think this is not real news, I do think that shipping charges/delivery charges are expensive. It's a good thing the guy was fired.
