I moved into my first apartment back in August. The mail situation has been kind of meh. All the units have mailboxes in the vestibule of the building. Anyone can access this. I had an issue with a package not arriving / going missing early on, and the only annoyances I’ve had up until now are that whoever delivers the mail often does not put it in our boxes. They just leave it piled up on top of where all the mailboxes are. So, I have to stand around feeling like a creep, riffling through other people’s mail on the off chance I have something coming in.

I had to be out of the apartment today. I got a notification that two packages where delivered. One of them was delivered by FedEx (they have proof of delivery showing it in the building), and the other is USPS. Neither of them is here. I’m going to lose my fucking mind. I shouldn’t potentially be out almost $100 because someone helped themselves to my cat food. I shouldn’t have to look through other people’s mail to maybe find mine. I’m already getting informed delivery from USPS. There is nothing more I can do, someone else needs to step up.

I want to complain to both apartment management and USPS about these issues. Is there a legitimate reason why my apartment management could not install a security camera, or why USPS couldn’t take the time to put our mail in the correct box?
