  Contrast that with the local UPS driver who will place a
  package on the front steps, knock softly, and then run to his
  truck to see if he can get away before someone opens the door.
  Sometimes he doesn't knock, and sometimes he will leave the
  package in a secluded place on the side of the steps and not
  post the required "where it is" notice.  FedEx will usually
  ring the bell before they do that.  If it's the regular USPS
  letter carrier she usually will knock loudly before leaving a
  package, but the relief carriers usually don't.  That's why I
  prefer a PO Box for my mail.

  What ever happened to "personal service"?
