I have always found florist deliveries to be the most annoying of all. Don't worry about it.
Condolences on your loss, but yes, you must handle it your own way.

My sincere condolences Irishgal.
Gas got cheap, yet gas stations are not giving away salt shakers, plates, cups or Ginzu knifes. Yet.

I am so sorry.
I am so sorry for your loss. Take care of yourself.
Seriously can't they do their major job correctly?
I know people mean well, but when you lose a dog that's been your best buddy for many years, I feel anger when people suggest you get a rescue pup right away to "make you feel better about your loss." It is an insensitive suggestion and people should be given time to grieve over their loss. It's their choice if and when they want to adopt a new family member.

Somehow I think USPS losing a package happens less than people think. I'm 65, and in my entire life I know of only one instance of a piece of mail that I sent not arriving and I use (and still use) the mail lot. Considering the volume of mail that they handle I think that's pretty impressive.
As with so many other things in life "10,000 attaboys are canceled out by one awsh*t".
Just read another post about USPS losing someones package. SO:
Why in the heck should I pay USPS, UPS, Fedex, etc. extra for insurance for them to do the ONE thing I'm paying them to do: send a package from one place to another safely?

I also agree . I had a few insensitive people suggest I start dating pretty soon after my husband died .

They just can't be trusted and have no accountability in the event of a lost item, other than fight you if you have insurance.
Wow, what a difference! Maybe it's the work ethic of the population in different areas? Management styles? Interesting topic for someone to do a study on.
We are at the "end of the line" from the P.O. and frequently have different delivery people. Last year, our entire street was not getting mail for an entire week. We had to go (my DW and a neighbor) to visit the Postmaster in person to see what was going on. The P.O. will not answer a phone here.
After the Postmaster looked into it, it was a "sub" postman (actually a woman) working the route who could not open the box cover (we have pigeon hole boxes in a standing unit with a locked cover) and therefore did not deliver anyone's mail. She just let it pile up in her truck. She blamed a non-working key (hers!). Said it would take a week to get new key cut.
Now we have the same people dropping Amazon packages on driveways and not knocking on doors. How nice.
