Ups guy.....here's one for you.why do you guys park in the middle of the road? You block traffic and cause serious safety issues.you guys need to pull off the road or really into the customers drive way. And you say get a life when you endanger lives just to save a couple minutes on your route.nothing worse than coming around a corner and barely seeing a brown truck at night parked in the damn road. Especially when the house has ample room to pull in and turn around.

The real issue is that the gate was LOCKED when the mail person tried to deliver package. Since it was apparently not "deliver in person" what else was he supposed to do. The receiver was expecting a package containing an antique clock...and should have made himself available for delivery or made other arrangements prior to delivery!
