Left a package at the wrong door - in the rain - without cover.

I could ALMOST understand if it weren't for the fact that they put the box behind a barrier that I erected in front of the stairs accessing this door to prevent delivery drivers from dumping stuff there (it INVARIABLY happens due to our dual driveway configuration and the fact that the driveway next to the mailbox leads to the wrong door) complete with a sign featuring big red letters saying "DELIVERIES" and an arrow pointing in the right direction (and blue letters saying CUSTOMERS with an arrow pointing in the other direction, but that's another matter altogether)

In addition, it was signed for by "LD FD -<buncha digits>"

This, I assume means, Left at front doorstep and then the house number. Unfortunately, that's not QUITE the house number - it's rather dyslexic in construction.

Where do they find these guys? Illiterate AND dyslexic?

My only delivery driver that I actually LIKE is my FedEx Express guy (and of course the FedEx Custom Critical guys are welcome, since they're very good with stuff seeing as how they're personally responsible, as are the freight drivers). I've never had any issue whatsoever with anything via FedEx Express. FedEx Ground/RPS, Airborne/DHL, UPS, USPS, they've all given me issues.

I have to agree to a point, DHL service is pretty horrible compared to the larger delivery companies. I can't count how many packages I have had majikly dissapear, and/or show up 2 months later. Their package tracking tools are pretty buggy too. I get stuff that shows to be delivered (when I didn't sign for it), then 2hrs later, it shows to be in transit with an eta 2 days later than it's supposed to be here.
