I’m in your camp. Don’t use it much. But not a heavy take away user in general. I have a preference for fresh food even if it’s McDonald’s (10 minute old McDonald’s is worse to me). I don’t even like drive thru much and they proliferate in Texas.
That said, when I order delivery (usually pizza), I just call. I feel like any amount of web/app UI, doing the ordering and account creation/management is a huge hassle. The telephone is easy and fast. It’s like Alexa except with a real human. Y’all should try it out /s
But seriously, I’m a little older (that weird pre-millennial gen), but I find it crazy/funny how extreme the younger generations avoidance of voice calls has become. I don’t like talking on the phone, but sometimes it’s the best UI.
- mydongle 6y agoI used to work at a pizza place and often times phone orders will actually disrupt the pizza making since pizza makers have to go take the calls if there aren't any or not enough delivery drivers (who are the primary call takers). It takes just one problem customer to hold up a pizza maker for enough time and cause a huge pain. Not saying you're wrong to call though, just a little random anecdote.
