That could be said of all the people in any industry or govt dept - there are ignorant, lazy individuals and careful, conscientious individuals in every organization.

But when it's a system itself which is broken, it tends to attract ignorant, lazy employees in greater numbers than careful, conscientious ones. The former know via the jobs-grapevine that they can get away with a ton of stuff, and since their primary objective is to have a "cushy" job where supervision is minimal, they apply and then further spread the rot. The more the former are hired, the more the latter flee when they can see that their efforts mean less than nothing, making the system worse daily.

UPS is entrenched system-wide in lack of accountability, from the bottom to the top.

This group order has now come to a happy ending! After all the stupidity with UPS things were set right. For those that don't want to read the back discussion, basically UPS screwed up supreme and took 5 days to deliver an over night package. Obviously most everything died . However, Bill (at Neptune's Cove), being the stand up guy that he is, got a refund on the shipping from UPS and decided to resend the entire zoa/paly overpolyped and at no cost. The shipment arrived successfully a day later (using UPS) and everything looks great. Thanks to Bill for coming through for us and UPS for doing their job.

So I'd have to say things went well in the end and I suggest anyone considering a group order look into Neptune's Cove for some of those hard to find pieces.

I will post a few when I get time but they are still adjusting for me right now not fully expanded and the color needs a bit of time to fill in.
I have to give a thumbs up for Neptune as well nice to see a vendor back up their product like that.
I will order from them again.
