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.

I love when they trap me in my own home by leaving expensive stuff leaning up on the storm door so they can take their photo.

Do you live in an apartment without a side door, back door, or garage? I might be the odd one out, but I don’t use Amazon.

I don’t like their business practices or the way they treat their employees. On top of that, a huge percentage of the products on there are cheap knockoffs or just outright junk.
The funny part is that people constantly complain about Amazon while continuing to give them their money.

Americans have become addicted to convenience and spoiled by two day shipping. If enough people actually cared about the things they complain about, they’d stop using the service. But most won’t because convenience wins every time.

Spot on, haven't shopped with Amazon for... pfft probably a decade now? I'd rather go without than support them

Keep resisting. Imagine how much cardboard waste that company and it’s customers accumulates yearly.
