I live in an apartment in Texas. I constantly get mail for at least 5 previous tenants. I've had issues with our postman returning these in the past, so I made some large, obvious, clear labels that I stick over my address that say:
RETURN TO SENDER
RECIPIENT NOT AT THIS ADDRESS
Our mail carrier actually brought them to my apartment's leasing office and told them to tell me to he didn't know why I was doing it, and I should stop. I even went as far as dropping the "Return to sender" mail off at work (serviced by a different PO), and I found them in my mailbox the next day!!! A lot of items look pretty important too, including mail from banks and even a juvenile detention center.
tl;dr - From your experience, how and why do you think a "RETURN TO SENDER" piece of mail can pass through several hands, and end up right back in my mailbox?

(Here's a photo of a piece of mail with the blatant sticker that still made it back to my mailbox.)
