You mean Deep Down?

Ah, Plei. My sister in pedantry. I was going to do it, but I figured I'd lay off him for...I don't know, I made up a reason.

Who? moi??

Ah, USPS. I hate them. I have stairs. Not a lot for San Francisco, but stairs. My postal people will occasionally deliver mail. Not often of Friday tho. I assume it is his day off. When the lady had the route I was lucky if I got a delivery to my mail box twice a week. Once she couldn't be bothered. I saw her throw the mail on the bottom steps.

Yes, I have complained to the Postmaster General. A short time later the carrier told me he didn't appreciate my complaints. Service got worse until he changed routes.

I hate the post office.

Hmmm, everywhere you go package delivery may be screwed up by either UPS or USPS.

So nice.

My plan is still to leave a giant message and hope for the best.

See, you're a more forgiving soul than I. This would be the point at which my new hobby would become making myself more of an inconvenience to the postmaster than replacing the crappy carrier would be.

UPS is reporting that my order has been delivered to doorstep. Let's see if the box is there when I get home...

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

LOVE that movie!

Aaand the trap has reset and awaits its next victim.

I feel your pain. My carrier likes to crumple, yes, literally crumple into a ball, the mail into the box. If it's too big to fit in the box, he doesn't want to climb the three flights and willl leave it downstairs easily in sight with my unsecured front door. For a while, I was consulting and working at home, and I was going to get an outside mailbox.
