Food delivery workers are the saviors of our Friday nights at home. They bring us pizza and allow us the joy of indulging in our laziness along with it. Sometimes, however, they also add a little extra.
There's a Twitter account called "Suspicious DMs". It shares funny, weird, and even creepy messages that people receive from others, and (not) surprisingly, delivery workers are quite a popular category among both the senders and receivers.
From using ridiculous memes to announce their arrival, to obnoxiously hitting on a client... it's all there!

Hmm... If you put one lasagna on another lasagna, you still only have one lasagna. The ultimate excuse to eating too much lasagna. Even if you stacked five lasagnas and ate it all,(DO NOT RECOMMENDED) you would only have eaten one!

If you, however, get a strange text from your delivery driver, don't judge them. At least right away. Maybe they're just stressed.
As US sanctions on Russian oil have driven up demand and fuel prices continue to rise, many of them are rethinking how they make a living.
"Oh God, it's horrible," DoorDasher Kam Zuniga told WSMV4. "It makes it harder because you don't want to do it because you're spending gas money and time and energy, and you're not getting paid very much," she explained, adding that sometimes one delivery pays less than the current price of a gallon of gas.
"Sometimes you get $2.75 runs, and there’s a no tip on it, and you can’t feed your family you can’t put gas in your car," Zuniga said.

But according to Middle Tennessee State University Economics Professor Daniel Smith, prices will only climb higher.
The United States gets most of its oil from Canada, Mexico, and Saudi Arabia," he said. "But about 8% of our oil does come from Russia, so certainly banning that source is going to affect gas prices in the United States."
"The extent to which gas prices rise is, of course, going to be kind of determined politically by how much President Biden does open up the oil reserves."

But of course, not all of them are saints. A survey, which was commissioned and conducted by restaurant food supplier and distributor US Foods, asked both consumers and delivery workers about their "habits and pain points" when it comes to ordering and delivering meals.
The responses revealed some unique insight as to how long people will actually wait to get their food, attitudes toward tipping, and more. Unfortunately, they also presented some unsettling information. For example, out of nearly 500 delivery workers surveyed, 28% said they tasted food from an order.
Looks like the temptation of a delicious meal is just too hard to resist. Especially when it's just sitting in your car.

Y'all didn't count the blocks. The 4 min delivery time is assuming he's driving. The walker is at least 11 blocks away, and I don't see a bridge. Depending on the size of the blocks he will be walking for at least a half mile and maybe three or more miles. He's not doing it in 4 minutes.

I give delivery drivers similar instructions, though more politely - please don't ring the bell because it'll wake people up, just call or text when you get here. 90% of drivers still ring the bell, so I'm assuming this guy had a similar experience. I now work around this by waiting at the front when the app indicates the driver is close.

Question: if you cancel do you get your money back? Or is this one of those pay after you receive services?
Jessica Cifelli 3 years ago
Usually you pay before and if anything is missing from the order or of it never shows up, you can get a refund. Most of the time its in credits that can only be used in the app. If you want the cash back it takes like a week to process. Also if you cancel before it depends customer service. Sometimes they get the full payment sometimes it's a portion or none at all.
