Like I said: bad employer = bad service. Caring about and training your employees properly costs money.
Interesing. In the US, I don't think UPS or FedEx will deliver to a Post Office, even if it's a PO Box. Pretty sure, anyway. However, if you had a UPS Store box, they will accept anything shipped by anyone.
That's a very good hint. I have to remember that for the next time. Should have propably asked for the supervisor... on the other hand she said that the driver was already complaining, so he most likely wouldn't even *attempt* delivery at the post office anyway.Also remember the rule - never accept a no from someone without the power to give you a yes.
The Swiss actually have a pretty sweet deal with their PickPost system. You create an online account, the postal service sends you a verification letter to your home adress (in order to verify that you actually live in Switzerland), and from then on you can register multiple mailboxes at post offices, stores, train stations and so on (obviously these stores have to be part of the PickPost system, but you can find all PickPost adresses online). So basically you can have your deliveries brought to a store that's on your way home, or to the train station you have to use anyway for going to work/home. The delivery simply needs to be labeled with "PickPost + Customer Number" and "Postfach Nr" (Mailbox Number), and the adress of the store. The employees there accept the parcel and store it safely until you show up to claim it. Of course you need to show an ID and sometimes also the notification they send to your phone when the delivery has arrived.Interesing.

Later today i have a talk with my bosses about my carreer in our company. (everyone in our dept has or had this talk)
And i have no idea what to say.
Since our debacle with our sysadmins earlier this year i consider that option closed. I no longer want to work with those people, let alone sit in an office with them.
Then there is the development route. I really want to learn programming, but i don't want to do it for a living. And there are basically 2 options: Oracle forms with PL/SQL or Java and ADF. Neither of those i want to learn. Forms is ancient tech, and i have a strong dislike towards java.
And that's where it stops.
Last year i also mentioned i wanted to "manage" our servicedesk team. And even though my manager at that time said that would be an option if the person in charge at that time would continue to suck at it. But that door is closed as well. I tried to talk to my manager about this for many times in the months after my evaluation last year, and he always said i would have my chance. But then around april he said i would stay at the servicedesk and someone else would "manage" our team.
So ... now i'm left without any idea of what to do and all my ambition and motivation has gone down the drain.

but I will admit that Switzerland - or at least the region I live in - has a larger number of crappy drivers
Find a candy that has nuts, gluten AND dairy. Stock up on that.
Actually it would have the world mailbox in it because it would also be a PickPost adress. It would just be a different mailbox number. One that is perfectly fine with accepting parcels, but hey, I'm done trying to explain that to DPD.Could you have the thing delivered to your local coffee shop? :?
(It does not have the word "mailbox" in the address.)
Agreed - my current employer makes us (the employees) its top priority and it feels really good and creates a very positive environment in which (almost) everybody is happy and full of energy.It's not just training. If the employees really feel connected with their jobs and their employer, they'll give better service. They'll simply give a shit, which is a big thing.

Aargau?
Since it says "attention parents", does it mean that for people without children it would be ok to give "bad" candy to children? Because I'm not a parent, so I don't have to care, right?
:lol: Not that abstaining from the Halloween commercivities is a bad idea, but that reason is so far from good it's funny.(pic)
