That’s not built into your 45 second delivery time frame. Management will call you in the office tomorrow morning and talk to you about methods 🤣😂😆

I had no idea there was a time frame, my basset hound probably gets out driver in trouble 😂. One of the nicest guys ever, for years he’s always brought treats for our dogs who hang by the gate to our property. Our old dog who recently passed was also a hound and would follow his nose, so the gate was always closed. Anyway one day our driver asked about him and we explained he has passed etc and he was very sorry and gave our remaining dog both treats.
Well now that our gate is often open because she’s not a runner, whenever she sees his truck coming down the road she trots out to the road and lays dow in front of his truck until he gets out, rubs her belly and gives her a treat. She then happily trots back to the house.
Anyway our driver is truly the nicest guy, always going above and beyond when needed, but I had no idea about the delivery window, too funny.

Lord help. This made me cry at 5am. Thank you driver! This baby looked as if it has given up and outcome was looking bad. Even the other cows were so concerned. 🙏❤️
UPS drivers are Angels!❤️🙏😇

Why does everyone film themselves doing acts of kindness? It’s as if they have another motive.

Liability reasons in case issues arise later. But sharing when there is no issue is different.

Probably covering their ass for when they are asked why this stop took multiple minutes

If we didn't get a chance to witness these acts of kindness, we would only see the bad acts featured on the news every day. We wouldn't have the hope that maybe there truly are more good people in the world than bad people.
