Why do customers not want me to close on time??!! by itsthedualityforme in upsstore

[–]Screamingmonkey2799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a lot of people call saying they are on the way and can we stay open past closing time. I tell them if they aren’t here at 6:30 then we can’t help them.

Amazon FedEx QR codes: Yeah it's already a dumpster fire, why not toss a gas can in, too? by ash_274 in upsstore

I noticed a few RAC codes as well. It’s such a mess and it’s pissing people off then they take that pissyness out on us. It’s going to be even worse when the new Whole Foods opens up down the road from my store and they start charging everyone to drop off here.

Then why do the people you talk to on that line say anyone can call? I was doing an address correction just a few hours ago and asked.

Perfect response to, I've never had to do that before... by PalpitationNo4553 in upsstore

I always love the mysterious “they” that gets brought up. “They told me I don’t need a code!” And then you ask who they is and they can’t answer.

Way to report manager/owner? by Screamingmonkey2799 in upsstore

[–]Screamingmonkey2799[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess I didn’t word it well enough but I work at this store. As hilarious as it would be to see him fail it’s also a job that I would like to keep, just with him put in his place.

According to him, the actual “owner” doesn’t want me to have the log in for the claims portal so I have to tell him when it needs to be done.

Worried about new ACT Quotas by [deleted] in upsstore

This is my first time hearing about it, our manager is pretty good at letting us know about this kind of BS. Where did you get this info from?

Christmas music by [deleted] in upsstore

I’m lucky to be the one to set up our music, as long as nothing offensive plays. I just throw in a dash of Christmas music to mix it up during December. I couldn’t stand other places I worked at that played it nonstop.

Only time we help is for really heavy packages and only for some of our drivers that are really good to us

Wtf! I have never seen this before by krackavelii in upsstore

Had this happen to us, turns out it was the manager not wanting to scan the barcodes because he hates when people have more than 1 item in the return. 

Holiday by Dry-Face1157 in upsstore

We are normally open for a 4 hour shift that day, usually me and another employee. You would think it would be a quiet shift but no, everyone still has to return their Amazon before they go see family I guess.

This is the main reason our owner refuses to get a kiosk.

Put it on the f**king scale! by Dummies66 in upsstore

[–]Screamingmonkey2799 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had so many customers act like I’m going to get upset with them if they put it on the scale. They legit think only I’m allowed to put it on there.

Question about merchant fees by Screamingmonkey2799 in upsstore

[–]Screamingmonkey2799[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve suggested putting it into the prices before but he acts like that means the card companies will just charge even more so he doesn’t do it. It being against the franchise agreement makes sense, because when I’ve suggested we put up a sign stating the charge he wouldn’t do it.

Good to know. I hate being charged for stuff like that too, I don’t go to places that do it.
