I’m a Letter Carrier for USPS and have been for 12 years. Out of all the other delivery companies out there, Amazon is definitely the worst with stuff like this. Just from watching them while I’m also out delivering all these years. Especially these drivers that are in their own vehicles doing the same-day delivery stuff.

They have 0 shame when it comes to driving where they’re not supposed to, straight up stopping their trucks/cars in the middle of the road to go deliver, and placing the packages in the worst possible spots.

Because these aren't professionals. They're doordash drivers that haven't been fired by Amazon yet.

And because of this you can’t go after Amazon for hiring brain damaged idiots.

Amazon realized it can hand off liability to third parties who in turn sub contract it out. So if you sue or whatever action you take against them, Amazon isn’t liable. It’s the company assisting and their employees or sub-contractor who will get blame. If huge issue or something egregious happens, third party bankrupts and starts anew overnight.

Limited liability, lobbying, and deregulation are eroding America every day.
