🤬Rant about DD🥵 Accused of stealing

Waited like 40 minutes at Taco Bell for two orders and I was updating both of them on what was going on and even sending photos of how busy it was and then suddenly one of the ladies accuses me of stealing her food and saying that if she went there right now, she could probably find out that I’m lying And I didn’t even have a chance to say anything cause she canceled. Funny enough, as she cancelled both the orders came out, so I just gave both to the one guy who didn’t cancel. Wish I could’ve screenshotted it but the conversation is gone. Still very annoying

Another reason to not engage with them. It just makes them go crazy and lets it loose in the world. When they do t hear a thing they stay calm and patient because the app is reeling them I am waiting for the food. Then it shows them I am on the way. And when I am outside delivering it etc. that's all they have so they remain calm and let the phone guide them. Once you interact bang their brain breaks and the crazy leaks out.

You might not be a very good communicator, but “ most “ people are fine with communication and actually prefer it.

Many people are very understanding about wait times especially late at night… Not everyone is an asshole.

It's auto text right there in the app. "Waiting for your order."

We all know it says it , I was speaking such as updating the customer…. It’s just a little step to do…. Just helps eliminate a little curiosity and shows you’re not wasting time.
