Oh my.
The Las Vegas Leviathan, about whom we haven't heard for a while.
He probably had his social security disability evaluation, and since he lost so much weight, he was told he should go out and get a job now. And so.....he's probably wolfing down Big Macs by the bushel now.

UPS blows goats. We're shredding the US Post Office for THIS shit???
Pardon my venting tonight, but I'm just livid right now....
Funny, but I never have a problem with the US Post Office like I do with this asshat driver from UPS we always have.
Long story short, my wife, roommate and I live in an apartment complex in a relatively poor, high-crime part of Las Vegas, where anything not nailed down is subject to being walked away with in quite a hurry.
We are frequent customers of Amazon, where we can get a lot of non-perishable food items in bulk for an excellent price. These items are delivered by UPS. Our roommate is a disabled veteran who often receives shipments of medical supplies from the VA, also by UPS.
The UPS driver I'm talking about has delivered over 80% of our packages in the past 3 years. His method of delivery is to give a soft knock upon the door, drop our boxes in front of the door, and run back to his truck without waiting for an answer. I am not exaggerating in the least when I say that we've purposely waited in the front room for this guy to drop something off, and in the 10 seconds it took to get up from the dining table or couch to the front door the ignorant **** was already out of sight. In the past 3 years, we have had a large box of gauze for our roommate's wound care disappear, as well as two other packages containing food items.
Today, we lost a box containing four bags of Bob's Red Mill buckwheat pancake flour because my wife was at work, I was sleeping during the early afternoon and our roommate was either also sleeping or had his TV on. And I tried to stay awake until the driver came. I really did. But due to my disability my energy levels are all over the map and sometimes I can't keep my eyes open no matter what. This was one of those afternoons.
Thus, our 7th or 8th call to UPS with the same angry complaints about this useless driver, yet another call to Amazon to get a replacement package (our second time with them, and they're friendly and understanding -- as opposed to the VA which took forever to replace roommate's case of gauze to bandage his ulcerated leg). Yet another demand that they force this driver to either wait at the door and have us sign for the shit and not him, or to drop the stuff off at the front office where we can get it later.
In all this time I haven't had a single problem with any packages delivered by the Post Office. Not one. And there have been medical supplies and prescriptions sent for our roommate every month, without incident. Used video games from ebay, clothes, all kinds of things. Those things are put in a locked box, a key is waiting for us in our main mailbox, and just like that we have our stuff.
But hey! We're going to dismantle the Post Office and leave matters in the hands of these private dipshit corporations, because they're just so much better at what they do, you know?
New campfire; no primitives at it yet.

Lazy,useless piece of crap.

Here, here.
The Las Vegas Leviathan shouldn't be complaining. The theft of his pancake flour obviously fed some poor person that was lesser off than him. At the same time, they saved him from himself, by not allowing him to ingest an additional 6,000 calories that four bags of that pancake mix would have.
This new UPS diet might actually work for him.

The gigantic primitive used to deal cards in a casino, where one of the fringe benefits of the job was free chow.
He put down so many steaks and potatoes that the casino restaurant went broke, and he ended up being 520 pounds.....and unemployed.
He got a first-class ticket on the social security disability gravy-train for obesity.
He's since dropped down to circa 350 pounds, but still alleges he's too fat to work.
-
Knocking down pancake stacks is the last thing the Las Vegas blimp needs to be doing.

Hate to tell you lard boy, but this is SOP for UPS from what I've seen. Our old driver did the same thing and would make a feeble attempt to cover up the package if something was there to do it with. Never had a package taken. I'm sure they will let you sign for it, but it might cut into the savings of all those nicely carb laden internet goodies you are buying on amazon for the extra charge.
I have an idea, maybe the US postal service would be willing to give those keys up so your ups guy can put your items in those boxes too...ever think of that dipshit? I don't expect they'll give that power up though will they?

I wonder what UPS charges to ship pancake mix. It can't be cheap.
I saw this headline from the geniuses at the Times: 'We’re Eating Less Meat. Why?' (http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/01/10/were-eating-less-meat-why/)
Because it's expensive, you dumbass. That's why.

The UPS guy is probably afraid of getting hit over the head in the bad neighborhood.

1. Over the top.
Hey have you ever heard of scrapitalism? Don't you know there are delivery time limits, understaffed, people doing some bonused freak's bidding, that are being watched? Why would you call this working person who you apparently don't personally know "the ignorant ****." He obviously hasn't given you his time for that.

I guess I forgot to explain that the other 20% of deliveries not done by this driver to whom I'm referring are completed by someone who knocks loudly, waits at the door and allows a resident to sign for the package.
The 20% driver, not an ignorant ****.
The 80% driver I'm complaining about, ignorant **** and I will shout it from the rooftops, thank you kindly.
So don't tell me I'm over the top unless and until it's you who has lost some important medical supplies and have someone with open ulcers who can't properly bandage his wounded limb, or an expensive electronic item because it was carelessly left in a place where anyone could steal it.

31. Glad you're able to sit home for a day or two waiting for a pkg.
I'd guess most people don't have that luxury because they have to make a living outside the home during UPS delivery hours.
I own a retail business. We've shipped more than 20,000 packages in the past 10 years, 99.99% via USPS. We are offered large discounts to ship with UPS and FedEx but I would never switch. Those services are substandard in every meaningful way, most importantly breakage rate. USPS Priority is consistently on time and undamaged.
Conversely, when I'm the buyer, I appreciate the flexibility of having more than one delivery option: 1) a rented PO box, 2) my residence, or 3) hold at the PO for pickup. UPS has very little flexibility unless you have a friend or neighbor willing to stay at home and act as package broker. Our route driver is from the throw and run school and has more than once left expensive electronics in the front yard in the rain. This and similar WTF moments have made me swear off of companies who offer UPS-only shipping options.

Walk your lazy, non-working ass to the store or the bus stop and buy your own pancake mix, gauze, and tape already. It's not like you have anything better to do like delivering a truck full of packages to irate, bitchy shut ins.

I guess he wants the UPS guy to cook it for him too ? He must have fat blocking his hearing because I can clearly hear a package being put on my doorstep. And uh, they tell you when your package will arrive, almost to the hour. All lard butt has to do is stay awake. Damn.

13. Have you thought about leaving the driver a note on your door?
Something on a big sheet of paper written with a sharpie so that the words are easy to read from a distance and the whole thing is hard to miss? Maybe placed right about where he'd be knocking? Something real short and straightforward.
"Hey, could you knock louder and maybe wait a second? If we don't answer could you please leave the package at the front desk? If you leave it here it'll get stolen. I have health problems and sometimes don't hear you knocking so I'd really appreciate the help. Thanks, xxxxxx."
Two bucks says that when you call up UPS, they never even bother to mention what you're upset about with the driver. Corporate is a trainwreck with that company and communications aren't very good at all. If you can find a way to communicate directly with the driver, you might have better luck.
How about something simpler, like:
KNOCK LOUDLY
I live on your tax dollars, so can afford to sleep all day.
Thanks!

Just out of curiosity I checked, and I found that you can buy the same mix cheaper from the Bob's Red Mill's website (2 dollars less), plus, they have a wider variety of shipping options. Took me less than a minute to figure out.

8. There is a solution with UPS.
View profile
I have plenty of issues with UPS, most of which involve the glacial rate at which the shipments arrive. I just got some coffee (San Francisco to Wisconsin) that took over a week to get here.
BUT one cool thing that UPS does is that ... on their tracking page (just plug in the tracking number of your shipment) ... you can sign up to have a text message sent to your phone when the package arrives on your doorstep. As soon as the driver hits the "delivered" button on his computer the text message is sent to your cell phone. Cool. I've done this twice ... today was the second time ... and it worked flawlessly. You can also opt for an email notice instead, but the text message is so convenient. Happens instantly.
But that said, this place I get my coffee from used the Postal Service as their cheapest delivery option in the past, and they were GREAT. Now you can get USPS delivery, but it costs extra. UPS??? ... not that great.
But the text message notice is a very great thing. Check it out next time you get a shipment from Amazon.

15. Thanks for the tip, but sadly we can't afford cell phones.

We're hoping that with my wife's income that may change, but for now she has a very basic cell phone with only a handful of minutes per month which was provided while we were on the SNAP program before she started working again. The other two of us just have a basic landline through our cable service which doesn't even have free long distance.
They had a few carrier pigeons but the Las Vegas Leviathan ate them.
As to UPS suckage, they do suck. I hate em. Their union encourages them to be inept.
They dropped a handgun on my front porch, without a signature, while I was at work. It was there all day.
I was pissed.
Guns have to be shipped overnight because of employee theft. It cost 60.00 with UPS and 20.00 at the post office. People without an FFL are prohibited from shipping handguns at the post office.

Checking the Amazon site, it seems they have several shipping companies with which they work.

Sounds like the foundation of your complaint is that you're ordering and not specifying you want your order shipped by a certain carrier. Tell them to send it via USPS. May cost more, but hey...
Unless this was just some stupid rant in order to complain about "leav(ing) matters in the hands of these private dipshit corporations," then shut-up, fatso.

Hopping mad at the USPS and at my bank
I hope that this post will help me to blow off some steam. I found out today that a personal check that I mailed via the USPS ten days ago never arrived. I sent the letter via priority mail and got a delivery confirmation receipt. Well, by entering the receipt's tracking number at the USPS website I was able to determine that the letter arrived at the Postal Service sorting center in the town where the person I sent the check to lives. But that was the last time the letter was seen. It was never delivered.
This incompetence upsets me. And since the check was for a fairly large amount of money I decided to call my bank to stop payment on the check in case the check falls into the wrong hands and someone tries to cash it. Then that's when my second dose of bad news arrived. My bank informed me that I would be charged a $30 fee to stop payment on the check. I asked them to waive the fee and they refused. This really upsets me. I did nothing wrong. The Postal service did something wrong and now I am the one suffering due to no fault of my own. And I doubt very seriously if the USPS will reimburse me that $30 or the $5 it cost to mail the letter.
People wonder why the Postal Service is in trouble. Well, debacles like this might be part of the reason.
And now since I had this bad experience with the USPS I think I will wire the money this time and that will cost me even more money.
And I just can't get over my greedy bank charging me that ridiculous fee even though I have done absolutely nothing wrong.
I have steam coming put of my ears.
But I thought the USPS was perfect.
Didn't the Voluminous Vegas Vagrant just tell us so?

I checked. The Leviathan is spending roughly four times as much, on a per ounce basis, as the pancake mix we buy at Publix. Four times!
It's easy to be extravagant when you're spending someone else's money.
Whether it's Jeanette's meager $10/hour earnings or dollars expropriated from the taxpayers, if the LVL has it, it was earned by someone else.

You hit the nail right on the head, Chris. They only and I mean ONLY reason they get so much chit online is because nobody, except maybe Jeanette who probably is out of the house 10-11 hours a day between work and her commute on public transport, will leave that(likely) stinking apartment and go to the local store and purchase those items directly. It's shameful what our taxpayer support is going towards; encouraging slovenliness and lazy behavior on people who really need to get out more in order to get them off of the bill of other folks. This irritates the sh*t out of me.

Can I ask? why does it have to be Buckwheat Pancake Mix? do people use that if they have allergies? I just use the Aldi's brand, a little over a dollar for a box.

I actually like Buckwheat pancakes. And yes, it can be used in place of wheat, but I like it just because it tastes good :-)
http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=11
I have a feeling though, this is just a feel good food that the leviathan stumbled upon while handing with the vegan nutbags on the McDougal forum. I found Buckwheat about 15 years ago when we had that variety pancake at IHOP on a whim. I love them and make them on occasion at home.

If the gigantic primitive had put less than one-half the effort into looking for a job for himself, that he put into looking for a job for her, he'd be on the employed rolls a long time now.

Yeah, I noticed that too. That woman has ZERO self esteem to put herself in that kind of position with that useless POS. I can only imagine the abuse she has had to put up with when he gets in one of his snit fits. He seems like the type to go off totally irrational and blabber mouth for days with steam coming out of his ears. I know Jeanette wasn't exactly Sophia Loren, but geez louise, there have to be some men out there who actually WORK for a living and would appreciate a nice, hard-working woman like Jeanette by their side. Why someone willing to work, pull her weight, and is pleasant would want to be with that lazy, excuse-making, slovenly, waste of skin is beyond me.
-
Far as I'm concerned people should be able to make their pancakes out of buckwheat, or truffle dust, or powdered eagle eggs, as long as they're paying their own way.
It's just irritating when deadbeats like the LVL waste food money, then complain that they aren't allowed to burrow more deeply into the pockets of productive people.

To me, one of the least attractive things about the Las Vegas Leviathan is that he's one of these people who thinks if the whole world listened to him and did what he said to do, it'd be all okay with the world.
But of course the whole world doesn't listen to him, much less do what he says everybody else should do; only the beleaguered wife Jeanette does. And he uses that power over her to the fullest extent.
The Las Vegas Leviathan, like the yenta, needs to grow to understand he's not the brightest person in the world, and that there are significant flaws in his attitude, and in the way he thinks about things.
I'll never forget some years ago, when he was getting all that free medical care, including a lengthy stay in a hospital, how ungrateful he was, and how he thought he knew better than professional medical personnel did.
He was petted and coddled--and for free, mind you--but all he did was bitch, bitch, bitch, and carry on about how they were doing all the "wrong" things.
The guy barely got out of high school, and damn it, he's qualified to run the world and all in it.

And him, sitting in the apartment all day long playing computer games?--I really think he has agoraphobia, the fear of going out in public, probably evolved from his being a freak for so long.
But if he made it a point to actually walk to the market to buy things in person, he'd get rid of that phobia.
Seriously, I think he's agoraphobic, afraid to be seen in public.

That's exactly what I mean, frank. I can not see the attraction. While Jeanette is of very average countenance, she is a hard working, decent, and pleasant individual. I refrained from psycho analyzing her, although I think I know why a decent woman as she would be with that buffoon. It's sad and too bad she has nobody advocating for what she could be and get so she could move on to a life of decency with a partner willing to meet her with the same effort. The buffoon goes without saying. He found a woman of low esteem, who probably is somewhat easily led to bow to his every whim. I have no doubt at all should the buffoon wake up a slender, fetching man tomorrow he'd look for what he would see as 'better'. He's using that poor woman; of that I have no doubt. I see woman like that all the time and instead of desperation for a mate, it seems to a me a group of these women could have a much better life forming something akin to a convent and creating a household of their own where they could not only take care of themselves but perhaps use their caring natures to benefit people who actually deserve it. The buffoon married his own personal FREE caretaker essentially. Sad.

He'd be fine walking in November & December too. It's gorgeous here November-March. Las Vegas is set up so nicely. There is a Walgreens or CVS on almost every corner. And if there isn't one on the LVL's closest crossroad, there is one another block down the road. We walk to Walmart & Sam's Club all the time. The Walgreens is probably a 15-20 minute walk. I'm of average weight/height. That walk would probably take the LVL 30-40 minutes. However, it would be great exercise for him.

Walking is one of the most beneficial exercises available, and the great thing about it is that it is absolutely free. I will admit that with his level of inactivity, he would likely have to work up to walking all the way to the nearest store, but there is no time like the present. A walk down his street and back a few times a day would help him start to build up his endurance, and being physically active will help him with the mid-day drowsiness as well.

She registered and made a reply. She told us that we had misjudged her lovemuffin. That he was a kind and caring person who would never use and abuse her.

Yeah, he just tried to fem it up, by being cutesy. "Oooo, the kitty's playing with the keyboard as I type. Isn't that cute???"
He makes me so angry whenever we have a thread about him. Leaving aside the outrageous economic inefficiency of having everything mail-ordered in, the very idea of him sleeping through a package delivery is beyond the pale. You have one job today. Be there when UPS arrives. One job. :argh:
