Neighbours moved in a few months ago. Since then I've taken in at least half a dozen packages for them because they seem to be rarely at home. I don't mind taking in neighbour's packages but these new neighbours are rubbish at collecting them. I've had the current one since Saturday morning. The previous one which was about 2 weeks ago also sat there for several days before it was collected. It's been the same since the start. With the first one that came shortly after they moved in I thought the delivery guy hadn't put a card through their door so when they didn't pick it up I kept going round but there was never anyone in. Eventually I saw him walking down the road while I was in my car and I'd just tried to deliver it again so I had it with me. I flagged him down by honking my horn and waving my arms like an idiot, rolled down window and handed it to him to which he said, "oh yeah, I meant to pick that up". I just feel it's a bit disrespectful to know your neighbour has taken in your deliveries but to not bother to pick them up until you can be arsed to. I know someone was home on Sunday as I drove past him as he was playing outside his house with his kids - he actually waved as i drove by to my house but he still didn't come and collect it! My AIBU is should I stop taking in their packages? Or is that really bitchy un-neighbourly?
