UPS makes a comical attempt at hiding customer's packages

It's the thought that counts.

Well, you tried.

Getting a package delivered in 2017 is still a bit of a pain. Sure, it's quick, but with few or no options for timelines, your packages may be hanging out on your front porch where any passerby can take them.

Delivery services attempt to curb this by leaving packages with neighbors, at your back door, or by attempting to conceal the package, sometimes with comical results.

Without much to work with, this UPS worker tried their very best to conceal two packages in front of Redditor mlbytes' house.

Hey, at least they didn't throw the package from their truck and call it a day.
