We have the best UPS guy (in Michigan) ever! He makes way too many visits to our home and always waits for my 90 year old mother so he can put our packages in the foyer!

A couple of weeks ago I got a package that weighed over 65 pounds and he carried it up our icy drive -- probably about 200 feet and has a slight upward slant. I asked him why he didn't back the truck up the drive. He told me they were only allowed to back up so many times on an icy day! He also told me there was a monitor in the truck that told UPS how many times he backed up the truck. I know my aunt got the same jewelry armoire on that day and it was delivered by the same driver. He must have an aching back at the end of the day!
