package delivery -- across the street and in the front yard greens

Subject: Package delivery -- across the street and in the front yard greens

So the USPS mail delivery quality has taken such a nose dive that this happened (see enclosed photo of the abandoned packages): our mail carrier lady just simply dropped three beautiful, and presumably higher-value, packages off on the ledge of a neighbor's front-yard flower bed -- diagonally across the street from the intended recipient (21 vs 26).  The rightful owner/recipient would have never known what happened to her packages, had the neighbors not caught this.

I do not understand what it is, but something is very much off with our 20001 mail-delivery quality these days.  I routinely get mail for other addressees, which is clearly labeled. Conversely, I can only wonder how many of my pieces of mail get put in other people's mailboxes.

This "mail drop" was simply an open invitation for the packages to be stolen, as they were essentially right on the sidewalk, and opposite of where they should've been.

These days ...: If it ain't the package thieves, then it is most likely your own carrier's incompetence …
