Wait: she DOES want them to leave the food "outside in the cold" (i.e., "no contact") and also DOESN'T want them leave the food "outside in the cold"? That would be a neat trick.
Yeah, there's a problem here, all right, but it doesn't lie where she's claiming it does.
- random42_ 3y agoWhen I ask for the no contact option, normally the drivers will ring the bell after they left the food at my door. I know the food arrived and I don't have to meet the driver. I have the impression that that's her expectation.
- Turing_Machine 3y agoAll the apps I use (DoorDash, Uber Eats, occasionally GrubHub) notify me when my food has been dropped off. There's no need for anyone to ring the bell (and in fact it's pretty rare in my experience, though it does happen occasionally). Also, she is explicitly claiming that she doesn't want them knocking on her door, right before explicitly claiming that she doesn't want them to leave her food outdoors. There is no way those two criteria can be satisfied at the same time.
- orev 3y agoYour bias is showing in your omission of the main point (which is clearly stated in the post): they’re insisting she opens the door. The desire is for them to leave the food and then go away, so she can open the door to get the food. This is not the same thing as leaving it out in the cold, which implies they did not notify her it was there (so it sat outside for a long time). This is not difficult to reason out, unless your initial inclination is to try to discredit the claim, which is exactly the type of treatment often raised on that sub).
