Default Parcel Delivery
Why is it that you wait for hours on a parcel being delivered then you pop out for a minute and that's when the delivery driver decides to appear

Even worse, you don't even leave the house and they put a note through the door saying 'sorry we missed you'

Sorry you missed me? you didn't even chap the door or press the doorbell you lying bastard

That's why I always put my delivery address as my work address, someone is always here

Fit a outside Camera (in a covert position)
easy to fit under 40 pounds
then Nab the Feckers.

Only Turn on when you are waiting for a Delivery
Wireless or even wired (even cheaper)

maybe God hates you?

I actually have the opposite experience most time. I think i might be a little bit psychic. I will wake up from sleep, and be annoyed, thinking WHY DID I JUST WAKE UP??? and i get annoyed that i have to go back to sleep, and then like 10 seconds later my phone rings and it is the UPS guy! and i'm like "wow, i'm grateful i was already awake" because i would have missed my package if i wasn't already awake.

My phone is never loud enough to wake me up when i'm asleep even if it's right by my head.

What about getting a signature though, if the parcel went missing their company would be liable for it. Not very smart delivery men in the country

What if the delivery guy steals your logs though? do you count them?

Same day delivery? Doesn´t that cost considerably much?

Most places email you a delivery time or let you track how long it'll be.

^ Yes they do, you´re correct.

It´s unbelievable though, how long it still takes sometimes.

I usually put the nearest post, since the postman can´t necessarily get in our apartment building, because it´s locked with a security lock and a pass key.

The ground floor, i mean.

After phoning the parcel company to moan that the guy never even pressed the doorbell and them being unable to locate the driver I get an email saying 'Your parcel has been delivered' 'Please fill in our customer satisfaction survey' which just pisses me off even more.

So I went out to put rubbish out there and lo and behold my parcels lying in the bin, the parcel that was supposed to be bloody signed for!

So yeah, thaks yodel, top notch service as ****ing usual.
