All the shippers are great for 99.8% of the shipments, and screw up big time the other .2%.
Back at a former job doing aerial photography we flew to another state, spent an entire day flying a project with film and flew home. The roll of film and processing is over 4 grand and three days of flying in our Cessna 206 is pretty expensive. We had it shipped from the processing place via FedEx, first priority, get it to us at 8:00 AM signature required, we what it now!
FedEx delivered our very expensive roll of film to a crack house, and just left it on the front porch and no signature. By 8:30 we were calling them. Bottom line, one of the supervisors went to the crack house and got it, and brought it to us, at just after noon. We told them we wanted a full refund for the shipping cost. Fortunately all the crack heads were still asleep or unconscious.
It was just one totally incompetent driver that figured a crack house looked like our business that was on the other side of town. We got it on the scanner hours late, but we did get it.
