My city currently has Amazon drone delivery. The drone going by sounds like a swarm of angry bees. Just today I heard something and was looking all over what was making all the noise, then I saw the drone fly overhead. I see them almost every time I leave my house now.
I got an offer once for a drone delivery. I would have to print something out, put it in my backyard, then go fetch the package from the backyard once delivered. From what I’ve seen, the drones also have a tendency to blow the package around when leaving. So instead of picking an item off my front porch, not really even leaving the house, I would need to go to the backyard and fetch the package (where ever it blew) and fetch the paper target to throw away.
This feels like a worse customer experience, moving from a porch to backyard delivery, and a worse experience for everyone in the flight path due to the noise. This is technology for the sake of technology.
I hope after the novelty wears off no one opts for drone delivery a second time. They are very annoying and create unnecessary noise pollution.
