Are discreet parcels actually discreet?

My question is mostly directed at posties and couriers. Do you get curious about incognito parcels? Do you get to recognise certain addresses and companies after a while? I just got a parcel from Lovehoney, they always send discreet parcels. Out of curiosity I checked the parcel and obviously the return address is the company address. So anyone looking closely or having delivered many parcels from the same address would get inquisitive. The postie looked at me in as any would really, I assume, but I did wonder!
