In Ireland it either goes to a neighbour or sent to a depot for collection.
MasterPinky
Amazon guy: im doing a good deed. Tossed package in to the shrubs.
McGreed
I live 300 meter from the main post office, but when they can't deliver my package, they put return it to a post office 2 km away. :P
TheRealEdwardRooney
Amazon has delivery drivers?
xendazzle
That's my kind of courier! Gets shit done
einsteinsbeard
Look dawn
secretoaster
Yes because thieves can't read. Yes.
SirsMadeline
Most people would recognize that as an i missed you and not even bother to go read it.
lilbitosunshine
We put a deck box on our front porch. Hides the packages and keeps them dry when it is raining.
FFFFFFFANNNY
hahah nice
dogjola
I would have written "Look Up" and then dropped the package from the roof
SrirachaAddiction
ArtajintheArtisan
At first i thought it said "Love Dawn" with the arrow pointing to the QR Code
jo3v
I dont know why but when she turned the camera to her face it scared the absolute shit outta me.
Arenta
give that man a raise!
findingjewels
Look, Dawn!
mookian
I have the save thing with Amazon. They put it in a recycling bin
TotallySaneScientist
The more you share this happening the more likely people are going to look more closely.
Ragonkforceayahjondow
That's a nice looking Japanese Maple.
Treefur
Look, dawn.
dontjudgemejudgingyou
Guess thieves can't follow an arrow to the bush?
HalifaxSamuels
The thought is they wouldn't come up to be able to see the writing since there's no package visible to steal.
rza33boo
I must be tired cuz I jumped when she panned the camera on her face!
UrKungFuNoGood
duck face
mrthegrouch
Read it as Love Dawn first
PeterMerkin
Wash your door, and trim that poor Japanese Maple.
IvorTheEngineer
In the UK, our Amazon delivery drivers put the note through the letterbox (can't be seen by thieves) saying it was handed to a neighbour.
VulgarBear
If you don't have a door slot they can't legally leave anything in the mailbox here. So most places stick it to the door.
GrumpySealy
Give it to the neighbour to hold onto. This is so British, I love it.
AbsolutelyNotTheNSA
As a nation, we generally don't tend to steal from people who live next door to us. So it works.
and then you also get a notification
remix96
leaving stuff on the door is a bad idea it shows you are not home
Huhwhatcrazy
Is her name 'Dawn' or the delivery msn can't spell 'down'?
TerraformTrent
Bad penmanship and a bad pen make bod dlroclIam5.
Swype fucked my man to msn
Psychoclock
If that were the case, must've been a starbucks employee
Corvette1969
How do you know her name is Dawn?
Nightcaste
It's actually kind of a pain in the ass to write on a door with a ballpoint pen
He couldn't spell.
He capitalized the D though
BenScottDrWhoFan
Sounds like an amazon employee...i know this cause i work at Amazon
MonsterRooster
I can see that.
lordofthedice
Yo, hook me up with one of those cool Amazon jobs I keep hearing about. I've worked full time for almost 5 years for a company that gives >
no fucks about its employees. And as added bonus, I can actually spell.
usersubbordercontrol
Amazon doesn't either. If you do, you'll quit within a month, or they'll fire you
garbagegirlcindy21
Amazon's drones have not yet been perfected. Spelling capabilities need some QA.
BozoThePie
It's like poetic military directions. Instead of hours on a clock it's "look noon", "look dawn", "look sunset"
Canteu
Delivery MSN Messenger?
ballerinawannabe
Our delivery man isn't nice enough to leave a note. If it doesn't fit behind the storm door, it gets chucked in the shrubbery.
FunkyPenguin
Canada post just comes up, doesn't knock or ring the doorbell and just leaves the note saying to come pick it up.
Ohhhlookaunicorneatingasamurai
Found the knights that say Ni!
GreyKihano
My delivery msn left 800 dollar desktop outdoor. I was in home all day, but he didn't even knock before deciding to drop it there.
alsoAzrael
Ours get put on the front porch in view of the street, without even a knock to let us know.
VictimOfTheUsersub
We want.. A SHRUBBERY!
MyNameIsJesusAndIStealHubcapsFromCars
NI!
AntiEvil007
Ni!
We are no longer the knights who say Ni. We are now the knights who say Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-PTANG. Zoom-Boing. Z'noicantremeberhowtospellthis
WitchyVixen
Awesome
lazysombrero
It belongs to the woods now
wafflestompa
Wow there's like five ways in this sentence alone that tell me you aren't American.
Actually, I'm from Wisconsin.
Close enough to Canada.
V80Q8
At least it gets delivered. USPS here says "can't fit in letter box, try again later", then won't let me go get it, sends it back to sender.
Gaelwyn
This happened to me so many times! And I work from home so I'm almost always home. USPS doesn't even bring the box on the delivery truck, 1
Just leaves a card in the mailbox to come pick it up. So I no longer order anything that will be delivered USPS. The rest of the delivery 2
Services now know to leave the box at the door or on the patio, they don't usually bother ringing the bell though. 3
veranish
Ours is awesome. Intelligently places it visible from front door but not from street. I tipped him big for christmas... i think.
Better than having it stolen I guess
ItchyItchyshake
problem is thieves know this too
Googlhupf
Question: If your package gets stolen, who's picking up the tab?
idkalan
It's the company who you bought it from, if it's reported that same day of getting the delivery notification.
The only time the carrier foots the bill, is if they lost it in transit and the package has insurance.
WelcomeToTheShatterdome
Delivery guy was nice enough to hide it.
rockatron5000
Do you actually have any proof?
Shoujo
You can call his mom for reference, but she might be biased.
Delta2Almanac
Plot twist, this is the guy who stole it videoing it
I'm not sure why they put their expression in the video at all, Pouty Frowny Duckface didn't add much to the story
Darkova
That is a really feminine looking guy
Don't impose your gender stereotypes on the rest of us.
Syrupdrizzler
*TRIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGERRRRRRRRRED
wwny
You need a good disguise if you're going to steal stuff.
TheBestRussian
Got husband an expensive telescope for his birthday. Delivery people just left the box right on the front steps. No note. Bastards.
Ventrix
Good in my book
megatron95
Being an Amazon delivery driver I always do stuff like this to prevent it from being stolen since we're held responsible
iliketogiggle
wtf! you...wait...excuse me. you are held responsible for the crimes of meth heads. whaa? how is that a thing??
Yeah I'm considered an independent contractor and I'm easily replaceable so whenever it's a sketch area I make sure it's well hidden
TheWorstYet
cheer mate. I would write the instructions in the back instead.
I do that. I write on the front please read back and write the location on the back since people might read the front of the slip
heghmoh
Are you? I've had multiple packages where I've been home and tracking the delivery. Gets "delivered" and nobody ever even drove past...
Yeah I am. That's weird did the packages ever show up later?
ImNotAnOrange
you couldnt get away with this shit in florida most of the year, rains too fucking randomly
SalamiMitKetchup
So... you don't have to sign when you receive a package? And deliverers just leave it there instead of giving it to a neighbor?
It depends on the company but typically Amazon doesn't make people sign unless it's a receptionist taking in the package
animatronicvelcrorat
they charge extra for that in a lot of places. I generally pay for it because my neighborhood is full of package thieving cockweasles
[deleted]
Yeah we can email them back but nothing ever really comes from it. People get deactivated and never work again for amazon even though 1/2
we didn't do anything wrong. Where I work I'm allowed 5 missing packages out of 500 2/2
IATTM
I'm sure it does happen, but keeping happy customers that legit get it stolen is far more beneficial than making sure no one abuses it.
DrunkIncursion
Amazon delivery driver here. A lot of drivers complain about that so Amazon now force us to take a picture of where we left the package.
PolarHailStorm
I'd have done that anyway, just to cover my own ass.
If you prove you left it on their property, does that absolve Amazon of any responsibility if it gets stolen after that?
If you show a pic depending on which reps you email it to can resolve it but sometimes it doesn't
Yeah but even with that it doesn't always protect us since they can still claim it's missing even with the pic and they'll still send 1/2
thatmissing package email. It's technically for customers to find the package easier 2/2
Ninjaviolinist
My fellow driver! I give you the highest of fives!
I give you the highest of fives back and wish for you minimal of apartments in your future deliveries!
Damn straight. Stupid apartments with their illogical numbering and stairs.
There's also a huge lack of numbers or letters on the apartments. I had one today that was a community of at least 200 apartments 1/2
With 6 packages to deliver and I ran into a woman who directed me to every single apartment. Took me 20 minutes instead of an hour 2/2
greenking13
Then you're one of the awesome ones. I had a package a few days ago show up at one of my friends house. A. She lives on the other 1/3?
derekn
Side of town in a van down by the river!
Thankfully no. Although I do know a few of my friends who do actually live in a van down by the Colorado River.
side of my apartment complex. B. I was home. C. I HADN'T SPOKEN WITH HER IN NEARLY THREE YEARS! How the fuck do you make that mistake 2/3
?I will admit, it was awesome to speak with her again, since I had no clue she still lived nearby. But still. Anyways, keep up the good work
Thanks! Yeah there a lot of different companies and people who deliver for Amazon and flex drivers like me are 100% responsible while 1/2
Others are completely protected and won't have any repercussions at the moment. Including flex I know 5 other companies that deliver 2/2
