*Scoops jaw off floor*. It wasn't as if it was it was in a generic brown box either, he could see what it was that he tossed over there. I wonder if it was real? |

If it's real the delivery guy might be sick of being rushed by FedEx while being slowed down by the security gates of rich people. |

I suspect it was some clothing item in that box. They just don't do that. |

More like the USPS. Those unions get nasty when threatened. |

A friend of mine delivers for FedEx. I'll ask her about policy vs. reality. |

Must have been the lightest computer monitor in the world. Did you notice that when he swung it up, the handle never even shifted position? Fake. |

I've read it. It still doesn't add up. The box doesn't move in anyway that one would expect if holding a 10-15 lb monitor in it, and neither does his exertion. And now we have a nameless customer and a nameless employee. |

Some people will complain about anything. They're getting air delivery at ground service rates. |

Here's a UPS guy who doesn't like the video camera, I guess! http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=17e_1324603410 At least they were only shoes in the box. And there's another funny FedEx video...wait for the end... http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d92_1324595500 |

1) The pop-up ad was for CDL jobs. Appropriate I guess. 2) A meme is born, as you say. I wonder how long it'll be before we start seeing adjectives and verbs to reflect this: "I got my delivery yesterday, but it was all Fed-Ex'ed up and I had to return it." Or, "Hey, just Fed-Ex it, man, we're in a hurry!" |

I've read online holiday ordering is up hugely and caught FedEx and UPS by surprise. The deliverers must be under incredible time pressure. Of course it's no excuse for what we see, just a realistic factor. Again, I love that fact that everyone has a video camera now and it only takes seconds for the world to learn anything interesting without being filtered through commercial media. |
