Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

this is something that's bugged me for a while, but it hasn't been an issue til just now

what the actual **** is with food delivery couriers just dropping food out the front of the door without so much of a knock or door bell ring? I guess it's a hangover from covid but far out I have never liked it, found it weird and now it's come home to roost

Just had my order 'delivered' and went out the front - no food - checked the 4 other units - no food - checked half dozen houses either side of our house - no food

How on earth are couriers able to check off that food was 'delivered' when they made no actual contact with any person?? It's a ****ing joke

30 mins later I am ****ing hungry and all i managed to get out of the website was credit for the exact amount I spent, and now I have no ****ing food

I am livid

What shits me is I left a table outside so they don’t leave the food on the ground and yet they still put it on the ground…

Although I think he was cranky with how dark it was as front light is a sensor light.

But my neighbours when I lived in Bendigo were lucky the delivery driver actually spoke to me when he tried to deliver their pizza to my place. Problem with living in a set of units was it was confusing.

WhIch provider did you use? With both Door Dash and Uber Eats, not sure about others, you have an optiion to request the food be handed over in person. Some people don't like the driver knocking as they hava a baby or someone else sleeping and don"t want them to be disturbed. Or they have a dog they don't want barking.The driver is also meant to take a ohoto when they drop it off so you know where they left it.

I've always used Menulog and I've never noticed that option
Maybe something to think about in future
 
I have never had food delivered, except for a couple of pizzas years ago. I enquired to Uber Eats a few years ago and was told they didn’t deliver to my area as it was more than 2km from the supplier. Is there in fact a radius for delivery? I’ve never tried again.
 
Chicago1 following on from your post in the other thread.

Mrs Post is a carer, took her client out last Friday. Claimed 21km on the timesheet, got an abusive call from HR saying the policy is all travel over 15km for that client must be approved in advance and they would only pay 15km.

Client's coordinator has said average 15km a week, client hardly ever goes more than 5-10km if they go out at all. Swings and roundabouts. We've been down this road before with them and got it resolved in the client's favour, now the scumbags in HR are pushing their arbitrary limit.

What's she meant to do? Stop the car in Footscray and tell the client sorry, you've got to take a taxi home because you've used up your kilometres?

****ing idiots.

Right at the point where they and (more importantly) the client are going to lose a carer because they'd rather spend time arguing on Mrs Posts day off and bitch and moan about paying out an extra $5.28 that the client is entitled to.

****ing idiots.
My Mum's with Australia Unity the job turn over is incredible.

Don't be so lazy and you'd not face this issue. Pretty simple fix.

There, changed the track for you. Don't mention it, my pleasure.
I was very chuffed when I got a lift home from the cricket with my mate's niece and when her car started Freddie fired up.
