Stressed Postman

[MsMolza]

I am expecting several parcels/packages to arrive this week and the postman has just knocked on my door
He gave me three letters and after rummaging in his bag asked if I was expecting a package
I said Yes so he had another rummage and was swearing to himself
He then apologised for knocking because he couldnt find anything for me, I think he is a new postman havent seen him before

Why did he knock if he then couldnt find anything, should I be concerned, if he did have one of my packages what will happen to it?

Sadly I have done this sort of thing before and it should be nothing to worry about. One of the reasons i have done this is because when working i have used a blank red card to remind me i have a parcel for that address only to find i had missorted it from say 36 blog street and left it in with your mail at 36 blag lane, another reason is i have put the packet in another bag or even left it in the office

Thank you for the quick response, I will try not to worry and hope something turns up tomorrow, Poor guy was really stressed

maybe he thought it was for you say number 4 blog street and it was for number 4 post street easy done it doesnt mean hes lost anything .

Done this a few times as well, I felt like a right numpty knocking someone's door thinking I had a packet for them especially if they came to the door in bath towel or something
