WTF?
It might have been a marred/illegible bar code and tracking number.
He would've kept the label and had the PM clerk manually enter the delivery record at the end of the day.

There are ways recover the tracking number back at the hub, but the DIAD (scanner) lacks the ability and UPS wouldn't want to interrupt delivery routes or pay driver overtime rates to have us do it.

Unless it's a diamond-label hazmat or international shipment, UPS has surprisingly little interest in the contents of your package.
There are reasons to remove a hazmat shipping doc when you pick up/load a package, but not when you deliver one.

IIRC, there are circumstances involving certain COD deliveries with the old labels where you remove a label and keep it.
It's been over a decade since I've seen one of those, but some might still use those labels.

Wouldn't read too much into it.
Was it a hazmat or COD?
