Just something that annoyed me a bit today.
Postie insisted I come downstairs so she could hand my package to me - wouldn't leave on the doorstep like I asked. No mask on. Second part is the thing that irritates me (maybe they can't just leave things - that's fair enough if so) - and she wasn't keeping her distance either.
I don't like getting people into trouble, especially in tough times like this, so I doubt I'll complain. But then I think 'what if I was an old person who's supposed to be avoiding contact with people?'...

It is not mandatory to wear masks outside but the parcel should have been placed on the doorstep and the postie should have moved away.

We dont need to wear masks outdoors, but we do need to be 2m from you when you pick your parcel up

Yeah, this one wasn't 2m away for sure. Also rang one of the other doorbells in my flats and asked them to sign for my package (by mistake?), so I bumped into someone else in the corridor on the way out too.
