Default Australia Post - Getting Slack?

I'm just wondering if anybody else is as annoyed at Australia Post as I am at the moment.

Scenario 1 - last week - I was home all day on the particular day, and later in the afternoon I go check my mailbox. There was a little slip in there for my parents telling them to go pick up a registered letter (concert tickets they'd bought). Now previously with stuff like this, the postie gets off the bike, and rings the doorbell and gets someone to sign it. Not this time, I would have heard the doorbell and signed for it, instead my parents had to go to the effort of going to the post office to sign for it and pick it up. I really thought it was a bit slack considering I could have signed for it for them while I was home, postie didn't even try.

Scenario 2 - today - I've been out most of the day and I get home to find a slip to say they tried to deliver a parcel (I know what it is, something I bought off eBay). This wouldn't normally bother me, but the slip was jammed at head level for all walking past to see, in the front screen door. If it was in the letterbox it wouldn't have bothered me, but to put it right there irritated me - I live on a fairly busy street with a fairly busy bus stop across the road, anyone could have come and nicked the slip and I wouldn't have known my parcel was there!!!

Just needed to vent a bit, I mean come on AusPost, lift your game!
