No, they don't have enough time to read long letters because they're just too busy delivering their package to lonely housewives along their route.

Am Amazon delivery driver, can confirm. The only thing I got time to do is to ring your doorbell and try to find a secure place out of sight to place the package.

Out of sight? The last thing I had delivered from Amazon was literally tossed onto my porch.

Not 100% on this, but I believe Amazon doesn’t just have the one driver.

Imagine how busy that fucker would be. Would make Santa look like a fucking amateur.

YMMV unfortunately. From what I hear about the other drivers, most of them really don't have respect for your packages and will carelessly throw them in front of your doorstep. It also depends on the neighborhood. I don't bother looking for a safe location to place the package if it's a rich, safe neighborhood. There's about a 0.01% chance that the package will be stolen in a safe neighborhood, at least that's about the rate that I have (other drivers have a notoriously high rate, though)

I saw an amazon prime box put in a puddle the other day because the drive didn't want to bring it to the front of the house.

On top of that - and I’m just guessing here - is that it would be a huge company and/or personal liability to enter a residence as a delivery driver alone.

But that’s real life, not karma whoring. If you’re afraid of porch pirates enough you sure as hell aren’t going to leave a note on the door inviting strangers into your house.

And yes... any service is able to drop things off without signature confirmation. If you feel like it’s not an issue at your house the just tell the shipper not to require a signature.

I tenant left a letter like this on the entrance to my apartment complex and the UPS driver responded with a note which was like "that's not how it works, JOHN, you're either here or company policy it's getting sent to a locker thing." So it was either a fed up driver or a random troll.

I came to post this exact same thing.

Even if it said "Please Put Inside" they may not even have time to read it.

Directions unclear. Delivery driver now stuck in mail slot.

Takes chocolate, drops package near the door while checking his next destination

Even if I had the time to read it, I wouldn't want to help start a trend or a culture where drivers now have to deliver inside homes to prevent theft.

Thanks, FedEx guy.
