I would suggest you 'grow up' by not relying on petty perceived social differences in order to make a point (with which I, coincidentally, in this instance agree). It just makes you sound like a bit of a 'Captain Mainwaring' style buffoon.
Social differences? And your reply is what exactly?? Go away.
Inherent in your reply to cml24, irrespective of his assertion, is that you perceive yourself to be be more 'imporant' than he is, and that this should somehow augment your argument.

Pray tell, what is it that you do that is so important to our society? What role do you fulfill that makes you so confident that you automatically assume that someone who disagrees with you is somehow less important?

I realise I'm rather labouring this now, but I just cant ignore such wanton idiocy.






Its marketing isn't it.

I have several fantastic hobbies. Sea kayaking is a bit rough this time of year though.

Quick check on your posting history. Numerous inputs to the watch forum.... I'll say no more. Ta ta!

I imagine he chucked it because he couldn't be bothered/in shock at your sunken suburban pleasure garden unexpectedly assaulting his primitive senses. Is that a totem pole?!!

To be fair, at least he has the gumption to advertise his own job.

Almost admirable insouciance. The only way he could have demonstrated more indifference would have been to unzip himself and water your flowerbed.

Are any couriers any good? Had a top brand dishwasher turn up on a site I was working on earlier in the week. Nothing to do with me but seemed plausible - "Sure its for xxxx cafe mate?" "Yup" "leave it there"

10 minutes later upmarket kitchen outfit next door popped in wondering what we were doing with their dishwasher...

Do we know if the contents of the parcel survived?

What the OP needs to do is build up a special relationship with the delivery guy like I have with my postman. He found a safe place in the garden, then he signs for it for me.

First time he "hid" the parcel he left a note saying where it was. Took 4 of us ages to find, walking up the garden in a row like the police do when searching for bodies.

Now we get a note just saying "safe place". Worked Ok so far.......

Even with 3 or 4 cars parked at my house, the door is rarely knocked ... just the “we missed you” form shoved in the letterbox, and the package thrown in the shed.
They must really hate any interaction.
They simply haven't the time. Waiting for doors to be answered, and social interaction, deprives them of valuable seconds or minutes to ge through their (massive) workload.
This is the race to the bottom that we're investing in, to get the cheapest prices and the products delivered 'at no extra cost' ten minutes before you order them.
