I know this has come up a couple times recently. I was waiting for a couple packages. Checked the tracking and they were both out for delivery today. I'm sitting at home and hear the distinct sound of the mail van so I get up and look out the window. The carrier leaves one package and I can see the pink slip for the second package that tells me "Sorry we missed you". "You can pick up your package at the PO". The guy never made an attempt to get out of his van. Just shoved the stuff in the mailbox and off he goes.
Taking a queue from BigFish, I hop in my truck and head him off a couple houses down the street and ask him WTF? I said I was right there waiting for you and you never made an attempt to deliver my package. He quickly changed the subject and had me sign for the package while making small talk. I reported it anyways.
Seems to be getting to common occurrences with this newer breed of mail carriers. Not even bad weather.
