Saw this earlier, absolutely disgusting

Sadly this is the reality at a lot of delivery companies. I used to be a driver at one of them and the way the warehouse staff treated the freight was shocking. Exactly like that - chucking it around, treading/walking on it, breaking **** left right and centre. Complete arseholes! My advice, whoever you use to send anything, especially large items, pack it and wrap it up really well! I think Royal Mail are pretty good to be fair for small stuff, if you package it well :|

Yup, as bad as it is its not surprising at all. Don't think you can avoid this by not using DHL...

Wrap it up knowing it may be treated like this and it will stand half a chance.

Personally I'm not that shocked by this at all.
More shocked at the fact people genuinely think each parcel is carefully placed into the wagon. :?

if your parcel can be dropped out of your highest window or kicked around your garden, its fit for travel.

I see this just when I have a DHL Parcel on route from Germany

But as I say this isnt news to me either. Its an every day occurrence sadly

 

[plantman]

its every parcel company, like what has been said, can you imagine them carrying each one and laying it gently in an organised pile, but throwing them is disgusting. just package yor stuff in preparation for this kind of treatment lol.

DHL is the the most over priced ones here in the states. I love to see the quality of service you get for what they charge.

GLS do the same in denmark. It has been in the news in denmark a few times and they still do it. I used GLS at my work before but we had to many broken items and to many problems with drivers that did not understand danish. The drivers is normally turks or arabs that work cheap :roll: So I cancelled the deal some years ago with them and today we use the danish postal service.

Sometimes GLS did not close the tail lift on the truck so they lost packets out of the truck and down the road when they were driving and they did not see they lost the packets :roll:

****ing Wankers :evil:

There's no need for that. I would like to think that the PO take a bit more pride than that.

People are people Jez...

Some do their jobs well and respect the property they are responsible for during transit, others are wankers and will mistreat that same property just to get the job done quicker when they think nobody is watching.

Playing football with the fragile parcels doesn't get the job done quicker though?

Oh yes it does...

Think about the time it takes to place a parcel on top of the pile compared to throwing it into the van, then multiply that by the number of parcels....

But technically if you have a game of footy with the parcel first it will take an extra 90mins before it gets loaded into the van, so yeah, I will give you that one. :wink:

It definitely helped me though, my secret santa got into the postal system 10 mins quicker, I threw it at the post office staff from the back of the queue and shouted 'deliver that mate' and walked out :mrgreen:
