In a romantic relationship, passive aggression is never the answer. In a relationship with your deliveryman, sometimes you just have no choice.

When Ron Blackman and his housemate Dr. Charles received yet another “sorry we missed you” note from an Amazon courier—left, like the others, while they were actually in their home—they decided they'd had enough. The pair decided to communicate their fed-up message in the best way they knew how: pure, unadulterated passive aggression.

Dr. Charles made a sign for future delivery people, and Blackman shared their petty masterclass on Reddit.

Housemate put this sign on our door after Amazon repeatedly posted "sorry we missed you" cards whilst we were home. from funny

The housemates printed out the Wikipedia description of a doorbell with a note clarifying that the delivery man should actually ring the bell, instead of "fruitlessly" knocking on the door.

Sometimes petty gets the job done. No word on whether deliveries are now arriving intact (or otherwise).
