My saga can be found here:

My initial research indicates that I'm not the first person to have his holiday ruined by UPS. Anyone else have similar tales of woe?

i actually told the dude at the LA UPS station to fuck himself on christmas eve last year when he wouldn't let me come pick up a package because the "office was closed" even though he was gonna be sitting there all evening. Let me explain. The package contained medication for my wife and the skeleton crew driver flat out lied about trying to make a delivery because we waited around the house all day for him and he never came. Oh, and we had also paid for two day shipping because the medication was supposed to be taken on a certain schedule. UPS service in Los Angeles is the absolute worst.

Just read your tale of woe. This is why it's a good idea to live in a tiny town where the UPS driver is a pal of yours. A package sent to me with just my name and that of the town on the label would reach me, whether shipped via UPS or USPS.
Yup, I'm bragging.

Yea, but living in Los Angeles, I get to sit in awful traffic, go to bed to the sound of sirens and helicopters every night, and find all kinds of great "presents" that transient junkies have left on my property.

Sounds a lot like my neighborhood. Except sub the junkie part for asshole mobbed-up downstairs neighbor.

I know both the FedEx guys and the UPS dude. The FedEx guy will actually deliver to my home on the weekend and to my work on the weekdays regardless of the ship to address. He's a good dude.
But we have had two flights canceled in the last week at two tiny airports. One was total bullshit too.
Sorry about the UPS woes scratchbomb.
