Question WTH Do Oil Filters Come Loose..?

Today, i came out of a store and noticed a puddle of anti-freeze....i was like....WTF.....

Anyway, 2 min's later i get home, and get under the car...to see where the anti freeze was dripping from. Thank goodness...NO LEAK at all-must have been there before i parked my car... THIS was a good thing, cause when i was underneath..i noticed my oil filter was LOOSE..2 full turns loose, and i was a quart low. I just got my oil changed a month ago-and i always tell them to make sure the filter is tight.

Why do these filters come loose..? Does it have something to do with pressure..? Maybe they left it loose......

Though they sink through the sea
They shall rise again
Though lovers be lost love shall not
And death shall have no dominion.....
