Default UPS Store won't release my package...First world problems
I have a PO Box at a local UPS store and had a package sent there. Well, tracking shows the package was delivered to Moe, the franchisee.

Usually what happens is a slip shows up in my box, and I take the slip to the counter for package retrieval. Well, went up there and no slip, so I asked for my box anyway...

They won't give it to me because they say their system is down and they can't scan the deliveries. WTF? I pay for a box, my name is on the package, and they are holding it hostage because of their computer SNAFU. That's borderline thievery IMO. WTF.

Took Springfield Armory 2 days to send out my new extra capacity XDS-45 magazines. Was beginning to wonder if they forgot about me

cut off the shipping label, they can scan that when they are back online, you can take the rest of the box home.

Do you think some flunkie behind the counter trying to make a living off of minimum wage has the kind of mental capacity needed for this to work?

Look, you, with your logical, problem solving engineering background. We don't want to solve problems, we want to follow arbitrary rules!
