Default UPS or a Dyson?

Which one sucks more?

The Dyson is great at sucking up stuff from the carpets.

UPS managed to get my truck ECM all the way from Florida to Nevada before losing it in the LV distribution center. That's after taking 6 days to ship it. Called this morning and they opened a lost package claim and now won't give me any more info about it, only to the shipper.

I hate brown.

Actually the Dyson sucks, and also, it sucks.


So I'd have to say the Dyson sucks more.

Dyson:
I find more Dyson vacs in the trash than any other brand. Usually it is an expensive part that caused it to be trashed. Overrated.

UPS:
I told UPS to stay off of my driveway, because not very many drivers can pull into and back out of a 10 foot wide straight driveway without going off the edge and trashing my lawn.

Several years ago the UPS driver asked my wife if she minded if he cut across our lawn to deliver to the neighbor - ~150' long driveways and our houses are about 100' apart so it is faster to park in one driveway and just run to a few houses. She thought he was going to drive his truck through the yard to the neighbors' BTW our yard is heavily wooded

What do you do for a living, drive a garbage collection truck or are you just down on your luck?

Neither. If I happen to drive by something interesting in the trash I'll pick it up and try to fix it.

As an example, many years ago I picked up a front load washer in the trash. There was a quarter jammed in the pump impeller. Removed the quarter and it's been our washer at home for quite a few years now.
