I have mobility difficulties. As such I can't get down the stairs very quickly at all times. When I move I'll be moving to a ground floor flat instead.
However the delivery people seem to believe I have a teleport device and that I can appear behind the door Lurch style before the doorbell barely rings.
Like today: I'd spotted the van, got to the top of the stairs and the doorbell rang. Before I could even shout "on my way" the guy had thumped the door 3 times and then gone for the doorbell *again*.
The advice part: Is putting up a sign saying "resident has mobility issues, please allow time to get to the door" or something wise or just 'lowlife bait"?
Luckily today I didn't actually do anything bar stress my leg a little but still ended up riled and upset because I felt I had to rush.
