Reply to Anyone else recently experiencing “attempted” package deliveries from USPS? by thedannymcg

Yes. I’ve dealt with this. Sometimes for a week or more of non-existent “attempts.”

I’ve had very good luck with the online USPS missing package help form:

Usually, same day I complete it, someone calls to follow up, and either that day, or the next, the package arrives.

My wife got laid off and she’s had a very very very frustrating time with PA’s unemployment system.

Generally speaking, Philly has lots of assholes who do very inconsiderate things.

This is one example.

The only practical options are to either accept it as a fact of life, and do small personal things to mitigate it (close windows, drown it out with white noise), or know yourself well-enough that you won’t ever deal well with it, and move to a place with less problems.

Because, at the end of the day, those are the only pragmatic options. People are not going to suddenly stop being inconsiderate, and no one is going to enforce rules and punish anti-social behavior.
