So i was having a lie in, no one else is in the house cept me, so i dont hear someone knocking at the door with a parcel, when i go downstairs i find a note saying they left it under the tree in the garden...WTF , apart from anything, anyone could have came in the garden and took it.
Gah can people not do thier jobs right...*grumbles*

Lol i get that too! One day they knocked while I was in the bathroom so I just yelled at him to leave it at the door and he said he couldn't 'cause I had to sign so i yelled that I was on the toilet and to put my initials cause I was gonna be awhile... he left the parcel. Soooooooooooooo funny!!!!! I don't know what I would have done if he'd waited though :P
"I ran out in my dressing gown and told him off for not ringing the bell." In your dressing gown.... *giggles* what did he say?!

Our parcel person is scared of dogs (why have that job then) and she made my sister go all the way out to the letter box in her dressing gown to get a parcel.
Heh, we used to get notes saying "we tried to deliver a parcel whilst you were out. Please come and collect it from the depot 100,000,000 miles away in the next three days. If your parcel is not collected it will be returned to the sender".
That REALLY pisses me off.
On the other hand, they'll leave my Zen Micro out on my brother's doorstep for all to see. But that was Amazon. And we might have told them that it got stolen so we could get another one for free.
our post man always does this. he shoved one of my birthday presents down the side of the wall next to the bin.and he never rang the bell cause i had been waiting days for it lol.x
There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
ha, my postman does that, although he puts it in the shed or outside the back door.
i don't mind it tbh, it's better then having to go to the post office to collect it. and it's only because my postman lives in my street and knows it's pretty safe to leave it where he does. If we have someone else, then i have to go collect it.
Atleast your postman brings you the mail! Mine always loses most of mine. My friend sent me an drawing of Davey Havok for my birthday last year and she sent it and i waited for WEEKS for it (she even sent it first class) but it never arrived :(
Then another time my mum decided to send me something, but that never arrived either *shakes head* i bet a hobos reading my mail :(
DILLIGAF

Royal Mail didn't deliver my last birthday card from my parents because it was underpaid by 5p, they wanted to charge me a quid for the privilege of walking 2 miles to the depot to pick it up, and this was about a week after it had been posted. I've hated them with a passion ever since.
Not the postman's fault, but i hate it when you get 'the note' saying to go to depot and collect something and it's because some stupid company has forgotten to frank it before sending it so you have to pay the postage. Bloody cheak!!
Lol once the postman put my sister's parcel in the wheely bin for 'safe keeping'. My postman here is great hough and leaves my stuff with my neighbour who is always in. I have causght them leaving the notes without ringing before. Some people are just lazy!
I caught him once though because I was in the corridor when the note landed on the mat with the envelopes. I ran out in my dressing gown and told him off for not ringing the bell.
*giggles*
Leaving a parcel in the garden is silly though *hugs Mari* You should've told him off!

my dad buys alot of ebay and our post masn is the oposite. he will come at 6 in the mornin and will not stop ringin the doorbell for about 10 mins till we answer the door. he also put the wrong post through my door. around my area there is two roads with simular name and we alway have the wrong post through our door
YEY!!! It's not just me who has a silly mail man. I was in the house all day and i had a little note saying i wasn't in recently. *grrrrrr*
When one door of happiness closes another one opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
ha ha, where i live for uni they never actully bother delivering the parcels to the place, then you get a note saying go to "blah blah depot" to get it, and its bloody miles away, and get lost trying to find it.
I did have the problem once of the postman stealing/not being arsed to deliver it, which was more annoying as it was my ucas mail, and when i finally did get my mail, i wasnt allowed to keep it, i had to give it back to the royal mail for evidance.

That happens to me way too often, the not ringing in just leaving the notes bit. And it's with stuff that's actually pretty damn heavy. One day they didn't ring when they were bringing the new laptop in. ANother day it was a new monitor. I mean, why would you even do that to yourself? It's very annoying.
