I second this. The fact that one of them had the balls to send this photo is killing me. I hope nothing is damaged or broken cause Id be upset too but I just can't stop laughing

That is probably the most gentle it's been handled the entire trip. You don't wanna see the sorting shute in the distribution centers.

I always point this out but a lot of people really donāt want to hear it. They genuinely believe their package is on a decorative pillow carried by a man in a tuxedo with white gloves on.

I work in a warehouse and have packed for UPS before. I get it lol, I mostly thought this was funny, although it was an expensive package.

It is very funny. Didnāt mean to come off like a dick if I did.

Yeah but I think it's more of the fact that they blatantly took evidence of the rough handling and presented it to the recipient without a care. Like yesh it's going to be rough handled but surely you dont need to make sure the customer knows it.

That doesn't mean it shouldn't be gently placed by the door, it's just a lack of respect for other people's belongings to just take 5 more fucking steps and place it nicely.

u/Few_Application_7312 20d ago
It's more related to job expectations of the supervisor. That 5 steps there and back adds up to either staying late or missing stops for that day. You do realize that Amazon drivers are peeing into waterbottles to make those times, so its not like they aren't making sacrifices too. If anyone's to blame its their bosses, but people just want to bitch at the lowest rung on the ladder instead of the people actually responsible.

You can't really complain when you pay for fast shipping and then expect the fast shipping driver to treat your package specially and slowly

Best way to make this stop is to cancel Amazon

I think that's more impressive than infuriating. Your box is not handled gently along it's route to you. If something is broken it wasn't packed properly.

I usually see the same three people doing Amazon deliveries to my complex. One punts the boxes, one handles them like they're preemies holding FabergƩ eggs, and one hides them at other people's doors but never gets the apartment number in the pic so I don't know where to even start on my quest.

u/FAASTARKILLER 21d ago
I would be more pissed if it was mid air. I cant help but to be impressed with the timing of that photo

u/earth_west_420 20d ago
As an Amazon driver, getting this picture like this is a 1 in a million chance. Poor form on the throw though, I always try to toss soit's parallel to the ground and also spinning so the spin energy takes some of the impact energy away... also dont toss shit feet in the air to get it to the door, like a foot of air is the max

u/Dp37405aa 21d ago
Hire that dude, toss the package and take the picture BEFORE it hits the ground, that dude is hustling.

This is art. How did the driver manage to take a picture while the package was still in motion from being thrown?

u/Setthegodofchaos 21d ago
That's what I'm wondering. Must have a very good set of skills. And a very good trigger finger

More like "Oh shit! I'm a full minute behind schedule, I have to catch up or I'm fired" cause thats what its like working at Amazon

u/DiscreteBeeX3 20d ago
Listen lady, it's not the drivers fault your package decided to break dance.

u/Upset_Dragonfruit575 20d ago
As someone who has worked for both UPS and the U.S. Postal Service, I can legitimately tell you that your package was handled way worse than this before it ever got to your delivery driver, š¤·

u/domespider 20d ago
Could be worse; the photo could be showing the box knocking down whoever was coming out of your door.

I wonder how many times it took throwing the box to get that photo. š¤š¤

Report package damaged and send this photo as evidence š¤£ (if you're trying to be petty)

Especially in front of a house that screams "A KAREN LIVES HERE". What a maniac.
(Not necessarily you, OP. But that front door...and the columns...)

I live in Italy and they either ring the doorbell to make sure I get it or set it by the door or outdoor windowsill
