Umm... OK Amazon. Weird place to leave a package.

My driveway is two acres long. At the entrance is a farm gate that stays open. The amazon delivery person used to leave packages behind the gate, nearly buried in leaf litter. My neighbor found a package when he was mowing the grass. It had been there a month and was totally ruined. The amazon people were hesitant to replace the stuff until I sent them pictures. Come on guys.... it’s not rocket science. Don’t put a brown box down in dead leaves behind a gate that obviously hasn’t been moved in years. Geez...

Or.....you might want to clean up your property or at least that space. And even go so far to put one of those patio storage boxes behind gate/fence so driver has somewhere to put it and you know where to look. But that would make too much sense.
 

Driver is an idiot and careless in many ways.

Also parked on the wrong side of the street facing oncoming traffic. As well as blocking your driveway. And of course too lazy to put package some out of sight and weather.
Have a lot of these clowns that work for the company I am with. They are the ones that complain about getting too much work. If they did your job right and did not cut every corner they would lighten your load as it takes more time to do the job properly in all aspects.
 
I loved my FedEx driver. He knew my dogs would hit the door like a freight train if you knocked. He was training a new driver and had her take my package up to the door and knock. Needless to say she must have been VERY afraid of dogs because my box went flying and so did she across my front yard. All the while he was laughing hysterically back in the truck. I got to watch the whole thing unfold from my front window.
 
that your focus st? if so.. nice.

Yep sure is.

Couple of pics from when I used to baby it and keep it clean. I would wash it every weekend. Then we had a baby and I can't remember the last time I washed it or Identify all the crumbs in the car haha.

I want to get a pickup truck now though. I'm 6'2" and probably around 250 pounds (mostly fat! Haha). Not sure what I was thinking getting a small car haha.

Man, you need to stop messing with your tank and go work on the yard!

I just put about 1000 pounds of top soil down like 1.5 weeks ago to fill in the trench that was in our front yard lol.

Also seeded with Bermuda seed.

They are pretty good here.... I would take the sign down (not because I dont like the sign - but because in one home that could mean a 'joke' in another it could mean that you have invisible fence in the front yard and the dog can come running out at any time.......:). Amazon has instructions as to how / where to deliver - if you have an issue - contact amazon...

Yeah everytime a mail delivery person comes to the door and I open it my dog flys out, rushes them, and barks like crazy until he gets close then he just sniffs thier pant leg. I always make sure to say he doesn't bite so they won't be scared. The usual response is "I've heard that one before"!

I'm just waiting for someone to kick my dog. I would totally kick their butt (man, woman, or child). But I'd understand why while I was kicking it!
 
Ps as the owner of 3 large dogs - I have seen the Amazon (etc) guys walk to the door only to literally run and throw the package once the dogs start jumping at the door ...

My dog only weighs like 5 pounds. He's basically a big cat. Haha.

No, that's a small cat ha ha, my two cats combined are 30 lbs. My dog is just over 12 lbs.

Our old Fed Ex ground driver used to drop off dog treats on top of the packages. Our new driver is also a dog person.

I live on 42 wooded acres in the middle of absolutely nowhere. We haven’t walked on most of our land because it takes a machete to get through it. So cleaning up our property is not an option. Also, when you consider that most of my packages require a signature, it stands to reason that the delivery drivers should come to the house. Not behind a fence in the brush, two acres from the house. If they want to put it where I know where to look, they need to bring it to my house and not toss it in the brush. But, hey, that would make too much sense.

Wait.... I see you’re a UPS guy..... FWIW, my UPS guy is the greatest. But because you’re a UPS guy, it explains you’re response to my post. You may be good at your job, but I’m sure there are exceptions. I’m not sure why you would defend someone that is obviously not doing their job correctly. Deliveries are supposed to be made to the house.... not the woods. I shouldn’t have to build or buy a storage box so someone can continue to do a sub par job.
