Last week, the delivery guy buzzed me. I went down (three stairs down) to the main door and asked for whom was the delivery. He said, "apartment 6". I told him I'm from apartment 3. He said, "I know, I needed you to open the main door so I could leave this box inside".

I asked him why he didn't ring apartment 3. He said he could not get through.

Today, the guy rang again. He said, "I have a delivery for apartment 6". I told him "this is apartment 3". He said "yes, I just need you to open the main door." I said I was busy and he should ring apartment 6. He rang again several times which I ignored.

Was IBU?

Thieves have been known to watch for routines.

Yep. That's what they did with my Mum. They'd watch what time she went and came back etc. You could set your watch by her.

I always said I find that just as scary as actually being broken into!

"Please just leave the veg box in the foyer thanks."

Think the purchasers if said box knew there was a risk neither they nor anyone else might be in when they arrived.

I cannot believe people think the OP has seriously done anything wrong.
