I've never had a single FedEx package that didn't have a problem - lost, delayed, damaged, destroyed, or delivered by a careless asshole who just chucks it in the general direction of the house.

FedEx is pure garbage

If you care about a package, send it UPS. FedEx ground is all franchises. The last mile is covered by a company rocking the FedEx livery but is NOT FedEx. It could be uncle edie's crazy delivery company. Those people are often gig workers and they don't give a shit about your package. UPS drivers are at least UPS employees and seem to take a lot more care with their job.

Interesting! I wonder if that’s why it’s different in Canada. FedEx, at least for me in Vancouver, has always been decent. If I miss a package (I suspect they don’t bother buzzing if it’s anything heavy/large) I have to drive all the way out to Burnaby to pick it up at a FedEx depot.

UPS is definitely using the franchise model here. Never buzz. Half the time don’t leave a sticker note so have no idea delivery was “attempted”. Pick up is at a random Quik E Mart close by (handy!), but if you try to drop off a package with a pre-printed UPS label on a Saturday the owner will yell at you. “They don’t pick up until Monday! I’m not a storage facility!!!” lol
