UPS vs Fedex

[MFLV]

One guy posted in my office crushes thread about a hot UPS guy and it got me thinking about those delivery guys. In my office we use both services and both have some really good looking guys but for some reason UPS trounces Fedex. Must be the uniforms. Does anybody remember the slogan "What can Brown do for you?". I would love to tell a couple of those guys what they could do for me. So the question is which service is hotter in your neck of the woods and anybody ever "land" one?

I think landing one would include a new definition of "quickie" as they, while friendly, hardly take the time to return a "hello". They do get a lot of exercise and, in the summertime, when they are wearing shorts, they all look pretty good.

Home of purple but plenty of brown extant also.

UPS all the way!! And yes, I've had mine. Married, straight and "curious."

Id have too say UPS. Here the fedex drivers are lazy They pull into the leasing office dump all the packages off without making any attempt to deliver to the residents

I've always had a thing for men in BROWN (NO, its not what you think !) . Those little brown shorts in the summer, with their hot, muscled legs and workboots is an instant "semi"...

 

And MY UPS man at the job is a cute, italian Shorty, with an adorable smile that I just wanna eat every day he comes in. He always asks me for "cookies". Is that some code ? (only in my dreams).... I spend at least $20 a week providing him with chocolate chips. Its so much fun to tease....

Ha! Same thing here too! The UPS guys who "service" my building are hot. The FedEx guys are not. Makes me wonder if there's an unspoken hiring standard at UPS. Do their human resources folks take a quick peek at the backside of an interviewee just to make sure they are qualified to fill up those brown shorts??? I confess that given a choice among candidates, if all qualifications are on par, the job offer will likely go to the one with the hottest butt.

 

Joking.......sorta......

To be fair, it might be a requirement of the place where you live - some property managers don't want deliveries to go to individual residences.

Several years ago, UPS pursued legal action against the online retailer of gay products "BeProud.com" for selling a plastic doll resembling a generic UPS delivery man. The Billy Parcel Service doll is part of an "American Heroes" product line that also includes dolls dressed like firemen, policemen, soldiers and baseball players. 'No matter how humorous your company may consider the noxious BPS doll, that product creates an undesirable, unwholesome and unsavoury association with our client's well-known trademarks,' wrote UPS's trademark counsel in a letter to the retailer."

 

I wonder how all their gay drivers and employees felt about being labeled (in a round-about way) "undesirable, unwholesome and unsavoury."

I love the regular UPS man who delivers to my house. Not only is he handsome, mid-30's, with a million-dollar smile and great dimples, he's unfailingly good-natured. He makes me want to order all sorts of things I don't need just to get to see him...and his nice package.

[TopAz]

Take a 5, put him in a UPS uniform, and he's instantly a 7 or maybe even an 8. I'm not sure why, but it's the truth.

 

Only works for UPS though. Guys in FedEx and USPS don't get the same "hotness" bump, in my opinion.

Anyone remember the delivery guy in Madonna's movie "Who's that Girl"? Shirtless scene at the bridal shower was nice!!

This thread reminds me of one of the very few decent Craigslist hook-ups I've had. About two years ago, I hooked up with a guy who told me he was a UPS driver when we were fooling around. He was gorgeous. Tall, latino, lean body, buzz-cut hair, and a big muscle butt. He was superb at sucking cock too.

 

He said he was "on the down-low" and lived with his girlfriend who supposedly was at work. I didn't have any reason not to believe him. We hooked up at his place, and there was a UPS shirt hanging on his closet door. When I used his bathroom there was makeup and other female stuff in there. He was a butch, eager bottom. I could tell it definitely wasn't his first time to take a dick. And he definitely delivered. I just wish we had exchanged phone numbers as I've never seen his listing on CL since.

nope the property management here actually hates for them to dump the packages off at the office. they have told them a number of times not to do it. i live on the 3rd floor and fedex are just to lazy to come up. management has told them a number of times they get paid to attempt to deliver b4 dropping of at the office. they pretend no ones home

To slightly segue this over to the Postal Service. When the office building I am in was being built, the owner wanted a certain street address for the whole complex. The property was certainly large enough for that number to be within it but the PS said no. So, when the PS wanted to leave mail for the second floor which had 6 offices at the front counter, the owner said no and, in fact, built a "delivery box" for all of the tenants who needed postal addresses but did not have offices on the second floor. That caused the post person to lug up mail for about 25 businesses to the second floor which no doubt annoyed the post person but not the Postal Service. This was accomplished by using a staircase as this building did not have an elevator which was via a loophole in the local regs.

 

I didn't mind, I need the exercise but UPS, FEDEX and the USPS folks have to go up and down at least once a day and, usually, more often.

I thought that parodies were protected under copyright law. Maybe an attorney could clarify this for me. I got pissed off once when the UPS once delivered, several days late, a package that they had run over (clearly visible tire tracks on the package), without so much as an apology or note asking me to confirm whether the contents were damaged (as it turns out, there were documents inside, so just a few torn papers). Anyways, I got mad and went to the nearest UPS office to complain. When they blew me off, I went to the stand where they had all their forms, and I mixed them all up. At least that made me feel a bit better. The only time FedEx pissed me off was when I ordered my Chinese visa from a visa service in San Francisco. Since SF is just a couple dozen miles from me, I ordered 2nd-day service, thinking that it couldn't take more than overnight in any case. I guess FedEx "showed me" that I should have ordered overnight by sending my package from the East Bay distribution center to Sacramento and back just so that it would take two days. It seemed incredibly petty of them to actually spend extra money to slow down service intentionally.

UPS, FEDEX and the USPS all do silly things but usually it isn't the driver's fault (not that you said it was) but they have to deal with silly rules that are enforced. Many times over the years I have had an 0830 package delivered and the driver could not deliver the 1030 package even though he had it on the truck and had an "empty hand" with which to do so. Back he came two hours later. They also do an amazing job of knowing where your package is, so long as it is on the truck or in one of their "centers". If it gets "misplaced" elsewhere it could take days to find it.

 

The one day and two day deliveries can also be a "trap". I know some folks who have ordered "delicate" radios and the like to be delivered by air, knowing the air shipments are generally better cared for, but because they did not need it the next day, ordered it two day "air". These are susceptible to being trucked if they can do it in the delivery time frame. That can happen also on next day deliveries if the sending point is close enough. This has been a gotcha more than once for many folks I know.

FED EX sucks in my area, and UPS rules! The UPS guys are better looking, much more polite, and do a FAR better job. FED EX is my last choice, and they ruined Kinkos (IMHO).

[wnybear]

We had a very cute, short Italian guy who was our regular UPS delivery man. I never got to see personally, but a reliable source told me he packed quite an impressive package.

 

When I had a temporary consultant position, working remotely from my home, I would get 3 or 4 UPS deliveries a week. He was a very friendly, good looking guy. When they temp job ended he say me on the street one days and said he'd been concerned since he hadn't made any deliveries to me in a couple weeks. My current job I don't even see our delivery guys :-(

I was never too happy with Kinkos to begin with. On more than one occasion they would run my projects wrong. And it was always because they insisted on doing it their way. I'd go in with a special request, usually needing something printed at an enlargement. I'd specifically tell them "print this out at this enlargement", they would attempt to figure out the percentage on their own, and get it wrong. I would love when a couple of years later they would be out of school and come looking for a job at my company. One recognized me immediately and you could tell by the look on her face, she knew she wasn't getting the job. Ability to follow instructions will get you every time.

One of my first fetish uniforms (and it IS a fetish!) was a UPS uniform I got off of eBay. I went for the whole shebang... shorts, shirt, baseball cap, earflap cap, and outerwear vest. Then I put a print ad in the Bay Area Reporter with the headline "What Can Brown Do for You?" and advertising a delivery man fantasy. Needless to say, at least one prospective client thought this was code for that other fetish (yes, that one) with discussions about rim seats... for starters. In retrospect I'm surprised I did not foresee the headline being interpreted that way.

 

The upside was that I got a call from a retired postman, who apparently had always fantasized about the postman getting it on with the UPS man. He had retained one of his old uniforms (including the shorts), and we were able to make that fantasy happen :-)

[bigvalboy]

Well in my area, UPS used to have the best drivers, but I have noticed of late, not that one should keep track of this, but FED EX has come along ways. I find that their employees overall are a little hotter. Service wise it has been my experience that FED EX has always been a bit more efficient shipping products long distances and getting them to the destination on time. I am always surprised when you go to a FED EX office at say 5 pm(the latest time allowable for 'next day') and they tell you that the item will be there by 11 am the next day. God I love those guys...
