Complaint against me!

[jessthecat]

Hi, had to laugh at this one today. Knocked on a door today to deliver a parcel, and when the lady answered, she started shouting at me for knocking to loudly! I apparently woke her baby up!
Now, i've got two young kiddies myself, and can remember how annoying it was when you've just got them down and someone knocks or phones. But, to actually complain to me and phone my office is crazy!
I apologized and said I won't knock again, i'll just quietly put a card in so she can collect whatever I was trying to deliver from the office. She was happy with this!
In the past, i've been accused on knocking too quietly........you just can't win!!

How right! I regularly go to one mans door with those packets containing those cheap pills people buy. no matter what time I get there, I always get 'you got me off the toilet. I was making the toast. I was just getting up, I was just going out, I was just getitng shaved------------------------thank god I'm not married to him!

i'd have probably told her to "go boil your head".......some people proper do my head in.

Some people are so self centred! Are you supposed to knock quietly your entire round because someone might have a baby? what about the hard of hearing people do they have to suffer as well?! Had a lady like that on my walk shout at me for the same reason. Just blamed it on being used to delivering to old people and having them not hear me!

just ignore them i wouldnt accept it from the dim if she doesnt want you to knock she shouldnt order items from the web

I've been accused of knocking too loudly, knocking too quietly or not knocking at all. What we need is an industry-standard knock-o-meter, which would be like a gloved metal fist attached to a cantilever assembly, controlled by a knob which would vary the knocking intensity from "wake the deaf" to "curtain twitcher". And they could be sold in knocking shops.

I've been told that my knock is like a policemans knock................you can imagine how that makes you feel overhere

A good reason to switch to the knock-o-meter. I imagine it would take quite a lot of calibration to sort some customers out, which might involve having to spend some time giving them a right good knobbing. Especially the curtain twitchers.

Get it all the time mate, i deliver in a rough scheme, everyone knows my knock because everyone knows me but they recently shipped in some reprobate who shouted at me going out his gate from his door for knocking too loud and waking him up! This was at about 12! Workshy lout got the fright of his life when his door got knocked again seconds later , the wee woman next door even came out i knocked so loud! :D

"Bloody hell Postie, that one sent the house shaking!"

I had a classic today. A grumpy old woman said i'd advised a parcel yesterday (which I did). She asked why I didn't just open the door and put it through. I explained i'm not allowed to and besides it's not my round, I can't just guess that the normal guy opens the door himself and puts it through. Then she asked why I didn't knock. I explained I did. She then started saying I didn't knock, she's quite deaf, why didn't I knock etc etc. I wished her a good day and told her I wasn't going to stand around arguing.

Said parcel is due to be redelivered tomorrow. I will knock so loud the entire street will open their doors.

I've been shouted at for closing the letter box flap too loudly, putting too much mail through so when it hit the floor it woke a 'night shift' worker. I've even been threatened with violence if I "knock like the Police" This person had the previous time threatened me because he missed what I suspect was a signed for Giro because I "didn't fu*king knock".... go figure!

Best of all one lady even accused me of killing her dog after I dropped a catalogue through the letter box on to its head!

[arnold cheshire]

this violence should be reported to the dom and his deliveries stopped that would teach the prat
