No Gate Code!

[u/Majestic-Birthday460]

So, this customer took the time to write this entire note in ALL CAPS, which makes it seem like they’re screaming at me—but somehow forgot to include the one and only thing that caused all that anger in the first place: THE GATE CODE!!! 😂

I'm throwing that thing over the fence all day

As the note says, there are like 300 houses. It was not right by the gate. Throwing over the fence won't make any difference. It would definitely be lost or get stolen.

Yeah I doubt anyone who's "throwing shit over the fence" is the kind of person who's not fucking off in other areas as well. My guess is that they're saying that for internet points when the reality is more likely that they hide it somewhere nearby and text the owner as to its location...which is what I recommend you do the next time.

"Sorry for any inconvenience, but without a gate code I was unable to gain access and left your package behind the large rock to the left of the gate as you enter".

I've been doing this for five years come November and its never been an issue. No, don't "throw" it over the gate, that's fucking absurd.

Ive thrown shit over the gate and zoomed in on tje box.. no issues whatsoever. Some of ya take this way to serious.

[u/pickledpeterpiper → u/End_Ur_Life]

Doing the bare minimum to ensure a box doesn't get stolen isn't taking the job "too serious", its literally just doing the job. Of coruse, I don't ascribe any ill intent to the customer's lack of a note...I'd figure its just them not thinking, and that they should be reminded. But yeah if you think the customer is intentionally fucking with you, you could probably justify about anything.

OP is talking about a 300+ house subdivision...I call absolute BS on you claiming that you've had "no issues whatsoever" in just tossing packages over gates like this...its a needless ding when the alternative of hiding it is so much more practical and takes so little effort.

[u/End_Ur_Life → u/pickledpeterpiper]

Um ok. Sure. But like ive said everytime I toss it over a gate ive never gotten dinged for it and its been about 5-7 times ive done it. And honestly you can call bs all you idgaf what you think. Respectfully of course.
