Food Delivery Employees Share The WEIRDEST Orders (r/AskReddit)

puppy is confused from these stories to the grubhub doordash or any other food delivery employees what is the strangest scenario you have had with an order i worked for a delivery company about six years ago i got an order for a single cigar total cost of goods about three dollars delivery fee thirteen dollars and fifty cents he lived way the hell out in the bonnies he also tipped my like ten dollars turns out he was drunk and delivery fee is less than a dui honestly a boy move and a safe one at that the delivery instructions were to beat on the door like you're the cops and then roll like a t-rex to scare my kids i did this but a small extremely confused lady answered the door apparently the husband had written those instructions for a prior delivery and had not realized delivery instructions copy over to the next delivery if not deleted what was the elderly woman's response i blurted out it said to do that before she could say anything then she laughed my wife and i have done ubereats doordash and insta cut for about two years now we don't have too many stories mostly just high drunk or naked people answering the door my wife is in a few facebook groups though and we just heard about a woman who was delivering some food into a private gated home the gate had to be manually opened by the homeowner and he let her in no problem but then after she delivered the food he wouldn't let her leave it took calling the police them arriving and filing a report for her to be able to leave and learn that this was the third time he's done this uber though won't ban him from their service oh god i just probably gave a delivery driver a story of their own tonight when they called me to clarify directions their number was the same area code as a spam call i got the other day that i answered and actually had a human on it and not a robot so i assumed it was them again and i answered the call and just said meow instead of hi then they asked for me by name like the last spam called it and i just kept saying meow meow every time he asked me something until he was like man this is your postmates driver and then i died from embarrassment my boyfriend and i used to do grocery delivery one time i had a woman order 33 oranges another time he had someone order 24 jars of vanilla frosting the store didn't even have enough vanilla frosting in stock to complete the order then one week later we saw that the same man placed another order for 20 more jars of vanilla frosting vanilla frosting is a terribly delicious snack if you hate life okay but 20 jars in a week this man is suicidal if he's eating it i'm praying he's a lazy cake decorator mayo drop off instruction set text me when you arrive and come to the side of the house i broke my leg and i can't come downstairs but i'll lower a backpack down to you on a rope your tip is in the loop on the back thanks i thought it was a setup but turned out to be legit i thought it was amusing used to deliver pizza i was 18. brought a huge order to a house on a weekday evening where clearly a bunch of middle-aged friends were having a huge party the door opened a 40-something guy answered and yelled over his shoulder the pizza's here everyone was clearly trashed already it's around 7pm he gives me a one-second sign and goes back in the house i hear him telling everyone to give up cash to pitch in for the order another 40-something wasted lady comes busting out past me goes to the passenger side of a truck then just lies the top part of her body down inside the truck on the seat and i think falls asleep for a few minutes i'm on the doorstep holding 10 pizzas door wide open rowdy 40 to 50 year olds party is hopping and the lady who has my money is asleep with her front half in the track i'm about to yell for someone else to help me when she gets up then stumbles over to me conversation goes something like this wasted lady how much is it me 108.25 cents wl staring at the water bills in her hands she then shoves them all at me you count that i count it me you gave me 164 wl is that too much me well i don't think so but your bill is only 108 dollars and 25 cents wl well you count that me mam it's 164 she stares at me a second looks at the pizza looks at the money reaches into her pocket pulls out another ten dollar bill and slaps it on top of the pile of money wl and there's your tip i unloaded the pizzas and took off as fast as i could best tip i've ever made in my life i drive four uber eats and one time someone ordered fresh eye a healthy food slash vegan place and i saw that the order was eight small bags of chips not even anything off their menu just eight bags of chips then while i was on my way to deliver it they messaged me twice in the app the first time they said please and the second message was be careful to this day i have no idea what was going on or why they didn't go buy chips from the convenience store near their house many years ago i was a driver for pizza hut we had someone place an order their home address was saved to our system but in the notes it said to deliver it to a hotel literally down the road from said home address so i go to the hotel knock on the door and do dances in his boxes with a girl in bed peeking around to see who was at the door 99 sure i walked into an affair encounter i used to deliver pizzas and one time i arrived at a house at the same time as a driver from another pizza place we looked at each other confused for a secretary before we went to the door turns out they had some people over and one of the people there really liked one restaurant over the other so much so that they ordered a separate pizza had that happen to me too except it was three different companies the customers made bets on who would make it their first it was pretty funny they tipped all of this well i was the first on scene i picked up 26 chocolate chip cookies from mcdonald's the manager was pissed why that's legitimate business if they don't want people to order them then they shouldn't sell them i think they only prep a few at a time i never see more than like six probably had to go to the freezer and dig them out during the dinner rush i had someone order 14 orders of cheese and crackers at my place and i was so annoyed to go and get the cheese and scoop it into 14 cups and open all the boxes of crackers sometimes during a meal rush shut is way more annoying than it should be this is one of my favorite random interactions from my time as a delivery driver for a japanese restorant i was sent to this house with an order of a stakehi and a couple of sushi rolls that added up to something like 19 and 60 cents i like to call before i got to a place just to give people a bit of a heads up so by the time i got to the door it was already open in the doorway stood a chubby kid about nine or ten years old that reminded me a lot of the kid from bad santa but without the curly hair i tell him the total as i pass off his food he hands me a 20 bill and with a straight face he smugly says keep the change pal immediately after he closes a door and i stood there for a second trying to process what just happened when i got back to my car i noticed the time and realized it was way too early for that kid to be home from school i couldn't help but laugh at the whole situation i wasn't even mad at getting a 40 cent tip because this kid probably faked being sick so he could stay from school and was probably in there watching tv or playing video games while eating sushi and feeling like a big shot i know i rolled at that age i got one that one time i followed a weird middle-aged guy into his basement for a life-affirming surprise delivering pizzas my attitudes that nothing can really go that wrong so long as i drive carefully avoid muggings and never enter a customer's home when i was younger and hadn't yet adopted that last rule i delivered a proper stack of pizzas to a really nice house in a very wealthy neighborhood where i was greeted by a classic mid-50s suburbanite guy i had like 50 pounds of pizzas and he was just vibrating with excitement like a little kid asking me if i wanted to see something amazing in his basement where the pizzas were going anyway yeah it sounds like a lot of red flag but from his vibe the amount of pizza he'd ordered i figured he was having some kind of game night with his buddies and was eager to show off his layout entertainment system bar etc wealthy guys love showing the sweet toys they worked for to broke younger folks and when you're working for tips sometimes a new or not at a car or in home luxury you don't care about is worth an extra 10 so i followed him into his huge house preparing myself to express amazement that is whatever we get down to the basement and it was a puppy party a true and actual puppy party some sort of adoption event he'd set up for his kids b day exactly as i'd expected there was a classic rich guy basement with a full bar and pool table and wall-sized entertainment center and huge sectional couch and recliners what i didn't expect was a gaggle of eighth grade girls playing with dozens of puppies being supervised by handlers every kind of puppy i could imagine i set the pizzas down on the bar and just sat on the floor and squealed and giggled while puppies tried to eat the smell of pizza off of me succeeding only in devouring my heart through my face after a few minutes i stood up all teary-eyed flushed with happiness and the guy just grinned his understanding at me gave me an envelope of cash and sent me on my way the hit of arc citizen and seratonin from those puppies still warms me years later duck and puppy party man my life is full of knowing that can even happen
