Thanks to UPS’s new program, your boss doesn’t need to see everything you buy online. . .

With online shopping now accounting for more sales than in-person bricks and mortar sales, UPS might have just come up with the win-win situation with the rollout of its Access Point program.  This new programs allows you to select a secure location to have your purchases delivered — not that’s not your office where you boss see’s all your shopping — rather than have the package sitting in front of your door all day. As for UPS, it no longer has to make constant attempts to deliver a package to remote locations. Win-Win!

 

The program lets customers pick up packages at their own convenience while eliminating the need for UPS to make costly second and third home-delivery attempts.
