I had this happening to me as well.

It defeats the whole purpose of tracking.

If employees are doing this, this means something else should change, either extend delivery times, hire more people, optimize how things are done etc

Agreed. And not to single out USPS here either, I've absolutely had FedEx drivers sneak up to the door to hang a "We attempted delivery" tag without ringing the bell. I assume they're running out of time and don't want to wait to see if someone answers the door or not.
