I'm glad the package didn't disappear or something, because doing the he-said, she-said with the post office sounds like the worst thing ever.<br /><br />"Well, we have a signature and the delivery confirmation says it was left with an individual by your name."<br /><br />"They left it on my doorstep without knocking. My kids were literally in the living room, and no one knocked or rang."<br /><br />"That's not what the documentation says, sir."<br /><br />A couple of months ago a substitute mail carrier delivered an Amazon package to an entirely wrong house in a different neighborhood. They knew which house it went to, but claimed that all they could do was leave notes asking the residents to return the package. We never got the package or any kind of resolution from the post office, and after going round-and-round with them for a couple of weeks, we just contacted Amazon. After hearing the story, they just shipped us a replacement item.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-70555805183060712482017-02-14T23:14:18.290-07:002017-02-14T23:14:18.290-07:00That kind of stuff really irritates me.

He rolled into the apartment complex's parking lot, jumped out with a handful of attempted delivery notices, and ran around the complex slapping them on doorways. Then he sprinted back to his truck and drove off. I didn't even have time to chase him down. I had to go to the depot to pick up my package later in the week. I'm still mad at UPS over that. Apparently that's frowned on officially by UPS, but they hold their drivers to such strict timelines that lower-level supervisors will turn a blind eye to it.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-18689893201486110252017-02-14T17:50:09.725-07:002017-02-14T17:50:09.725-07:00I've been there before.

What would have happened had your cards been stolen? You have the right to not be amused.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-6268195216123555752017-02-14T15:18:27.687-07:002017-02-14T15:18:27.687-07:00I couple weeks ago I stayed home from work specifi...I couple weeks ago I stayed home from work specifically to sign for something from Japan (and work was slow that week, so why not). The mailman didn't even knock.. just slipped in the orange "sorry we missed you" slip and went on his route. But I was on my game, and chased him down. He was like "Yeah, you're usually not home so I didn't bother." Grr. How much effort does it take to just quickly knock on the door while you're putting the mail in the box. My post office is closed weekends, so it's a pain if I have to pick something up.defgavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15338984361942309651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-58400343104778374372017-02-14T10:14:37.640-07:002017-02-14T10:14:37.640-07:00Usually there is someone home to sign, but I have ...Usually there is someone home to sign, but I have stayed home from work a time or two to make sure a package gets delivered.

It is bittersweet when they leave the package on the porch and "sign" for you, yet they save you all that time from having to go to the post office and get the package.
