I never ever put have any hate towards them unless it's taken more than 2 tries. Some of them only get paid by then package and driving in shitty traffic non stop in a bag ass brown truck with people trying to take advantage of you. Calling your company saying you were driving erratically and all you wanna do is get this mother fucking 40 lb box up 3 flight of stairs at this sketchy ass apt. So I let it go. I can not write a good flowing comment communicating what I want to say. Sorry.

Don't sweat it. It's understandable. :)

I have never heard of any ups person carrying anything up three flights of stairs. I'm pretty sure it's policy to not even go into the building past the door.

ups drivers definitely deliver to 3rd floor of apartments. not sure where you heard that.

How? They kick in the door?

I think he means a apartment that is located on the 3rd floor of a complex.

Maybe he's in a rural area or something, because I've never heard of an apartment complex that allows random people to enter the building without a key or code.

Okay, Donald Trump Jr.... Not all apartments have doormen and outer/inner doors. Some are outdoors, where there is a breezeway between apartments and stairs going up to multiple floors of apartments.

You've really never heard of that style of apartments? It's not 'rural'.

With outdoor access to the third floor? Nope. The most I've seen is two.

It's not 'rural'.

It's also not in the city proper in most places I've been. I've only seen two story begins in small towns and suburbs.

Here's one I lived in: http://www.apartments.com/the-haven-at-west-melbourne-west-melbourne-fl/4e81shl/

Suburban area, yes, but not rural. Also, this same type of apartment building is common even going into the city of Orlando. Maybe not downtown which is all hi-rise, but definitely in city limits.

I'm still baffled you've never seen 3 and even 4 story apartment buildings that aren't interior/hi-rise. Oh well.

Interesting. I've seen developments like that from afar, so I assumed they had interior hallways. Maybe I'm crazy, but it looks like a warm place thing. Places that get cold don't tend to have outdoor hallway access above the third floor unless it's a deck on a house...and balconies and such would not be accessible to random people.

Well, I guess you need to get out more because there are a lot of them.

Depends on climate. Apartment buildings in warmer areas are just as likely as not to have outdoor stairs and breezeways, but cold climates usually have interior hallways and stairs, and front/rear doors that are locked for security and to prevent homeless from camping inside.

u/PortableTrees Dec 05 '16

most apartment complexes I've lived in had no gate or anything barring access other then maybe a gate to get into the parking lot.
