there is no company that inspires my hatred quite like dhl does. both ups and fedex are able to deliver packages to us on a regular basis. fedex has the occasional problem, but then at least leaves a delivery notice. dhl consistently fails to deliver packages, only bothers letting us know after a week or so of their failures, and then lies to us about the banker’s hours that their pick-up office keeps. they screwed up christmas in 2006, and things have not improved since then.

i’ve had to ask the most recent package sender to please re-send using a company who has delivering packages as a core competency. i don’t know what dhl actually does, but it does not appear to have much to do with delivering packages.
