UPS, FedEx and the like.

OK, I know this is a silly question, but I really would like to know. Any time I've had anything come by a delivery service such as UPS, they're so sneaky. I was wondering if they plot their escape and place their vehicle in such a way as to make a quick getaway? They sneak up so quietly, next thing you know there's a knock at the door and in the 2 seconds it takes to open the door or look out the window, there is the truck speeding off!! Just wondering if this procedure is actually taught in the training for the job, what it's called-do they have a special name for it? I assume it's so that the drivers can get on their way and not get stuck talking to someone who might keep them there for a long time, which is perfectly understandable. I just find it funny and want to know more!!! So any delivery person, please answer!!!! I'm really looking forward to an answer, I need a real good laugh!!

Well, yeah....but I was wondering if the maneuver had a name, or if it was a topic of training. Like is it called stop, drop and roll (stop the truck, drop the box and roll out) or something silly like that.
