Seems like the distance and velocity in which Promises hit my door yesterday. Usually around my area at least, the big ones (Canada Post, UPS, Fex Ex, Purolator) tend to deliver packages a little more gracefully.

Thankfully my Canada Post guy (biker santa) must be paid by the hours. He walks up the steps, gently places the package on the bench by the door, knocks and waits for either me or my wife to wave at him or until he sees my dog.
Ours is great, packages are either placed in the community mailbox, or if she either a) sees us outside or b) the mailbox is full she'll carefully place the item out of sight on our porch. TForce and most courier companies Amazon deal with are flying on 0 fucks.
Don’t blame them. As always blame the exploitative Bastards running the companies
Unsustainably high targets and outrageously treated as self-employed contractors whilst under all the restrictive terms and conditions that make the relationship much more akin employment. Result, underpaid, overladen and over-stressed.
Free shipping is never truly free, someone is always paying for it.

I have started to bribe our Amazon delivery people on weekends. Stick a cooler bag on the porch with a couple of bottles of water in. They seem to appreciate it, especially on a warm Saturday.

Not sure what they have worked out with Tidal Wave but they're the only Monk RSD variant I've seen, so this might be a similar thing?
