The photo that UPS provided to prove that they delivered my package. I mean, sure, it’s my front porch, but they could have included the package.

      It’s really hit and miss though, at least where I am. Amazon does it probably 75% of the time. UPS and FedEx are both maybe like 30% of the time. I don’t know if the shipper has to flag the package to have a picture taken or the drivers just don’t give a fuck most of the time.

      USPS don’t take photos, but at least in my experience they have the best delivery drivers. My local mailman knows people’s names and there’s been several times where letters or packages had the wrong address (correct street name but a typo in the number) and I still got them. He circles the address and writes “address corrected by your mailman” on the label.

      The worst delivery company, by far, is OnTrac. They say it’s overnight but in reality the package would come any time between tomorrow and 2 weeks from now. I’m glad that Amazon don’t use them any more - in my area, Amazon used OnTrac until they switched to handling deliveries themselves.
