Two guys just drove up to my house and literally through a parcel at my door in the porch! First I knew of their arrival was the massive thud at the front of the house! They could have broken the bloody glass!
when I opened the door one of the guys gave me the finger (he was standing half way up the driveway at this point) started to make for the door but thought better of it when my -rather large- dog appeared next to me barking his head off at the noise. At this point he swore at me again before driving off with his mate.
I'm guessing that this is not normal postal service and this meant that my parcel had been delivered to their house by mistake but:
a) It needed signing for, how the hell did they not manage to spot it was not for them
b) As annoying as it is when you get mail addressed to someone else it is not like I purposely told them to deliver it to someone else! It has my (correct) name and address on it so its hardly my fault! They wouldn't have been able to find me if it hadn't now would they?!
c) They could of dropped it round nicely (have no idea who they are so dunno how far astray this had gone), or put it back in a postbox, or binned it if they really didn't want to deal with it (not that I agree with doing that). Is there any particular need to try to intimidate people?
Mail does get delivered to the wrong houses around here on a fairly regular basis unfortunately but I generally just drop it off at the correct house (If the address is on my street) or put it back in the post box next time I walk past it. Isn't that the common sense thing to do? Even if you were pissed off about it surely you should be pissed off at the postman for delivering to the wrong address rather than the intended recipients?!
Grrrr! Just shook me up a bit I guess because a 19 year old female against 2 massive guys is not the best odds in the world, and I'm alone in the house tonight. Very glad of the dogs presence ATM!
