Answer from Delivery driver left me speechless


Recommended Posts

So I got a delivery from Amazon and the driver was unreal. I live on the 16th floore of a block of flats with a controlled entry system. The driver buzzed me to let him into the building and I waited for him to get to me. Now the fun starts.  Instead of ringing the doorbell. he knocked on the door. my first thought was the doorbell  isnt working . so I opened the door and tried the bell. and it worked  so I asked him why he did not use it, This is where it got bombed out. he said. I didnt use the doorbell in case you was taking a nap. I was speechless as I could not believe the reply. He gave me the delivery and went on his merry way. I think I was so stunned I was at the door for some time. Others must have delivery stories, Please share.

The fact that you though this was interesting enough to share and the way you reacted is more interesting than your actual story lol... the guy probably had a brain fart because he has to endlessly drive to hundreds of houses every day... you don't need to write a story about it...

The fact that you chose to respond is more interesting than his choice to share the story. The guy probably found it amusing and decided to share that amusement with others… you don’t need to criticise him for it…

 

(keep it going)

The fact that you wrote "keep it going" is more interesting than my comment. You probably found it amusing and tought others would share that amusement with you… you don’t need to try that hard… 😛

That you are continuing to troll is more  interesting than all the comments.

I find it incredible that someone so out  there has a job and there are some that dont, even thougfh they arent as thick as this guy. I assume you are a fan of FOX nems and Donald Trump is the bestr thing since sliced bread. Joking again, maybe.

Well your reply confirms the low effort, low intellect content of this post. it was a simple question, but refer to the low intellect comment if you didn't understand that.

Guess I will move on to things more interesting.

Wow... this comment tells us everything we need to know about you... Some random hard working delivery guy just made a simple, honest, very unremarkable mistake and you think he doesn't deserve to have a job?  You never made a slight mistake in your entire life I suppose?

was a signature required? From my experience, the doorbell only gets used when they need a signature. Otherwise they knock, and if you answer great, otherwise they just take their picture and go on their way.

Though, I will admit, the 'in case you were taking a nap' is a bit funny/silly considering you had to buzz him in in the first place :rofl:

Everyone knows that Amazon delivery drivers never ring the doorbell. The real shock is that he knocked. They never knock here; just take a picture and leave.

Here, too. They rarely ever knock. And NEVER rang the bell. Not sure what OP is on about..

I wouldn't even call it a mistake. So he knocked on the door instead of ringing the doorbell, big deal.

I'm a delivery driver and I knock doors most of the time. Half the time peoples bells just don't work (or I just don't hear it ring). So it just saves time. I'll try the "RING" bell if no ones in to see if I can leave stuff safe somewhere. His answer was highly baffling as you had just buzzed him in...

The fact I had just buzzed me to let him in was the confuzzing bit.

Pretty sure that delivery driver can write better english than you. Just for fun, what's your job?

We get that you're politically deranged, but anger-typing with your fists isn't making you look intelligent...

 Humour is dead.

Projecting humor is not something everyone has the skill for,  especially when you insult others. 
 

Keep at it, practice makes perfect.

Letting a lapse in gramma slide should be a social media rule. kindness is free...

Too bad the OP didn’t know that when posting this…whatever it is. 
 

Humour I guess.

    • prices are insane its like 140 dollars more expensive, sigh
    • This seems backwards. You should have to explicitly authorize files for outside use. It shouldn't be the default.
    • Wow you are right, I never even noticed this until you said it! (870E Aorus Master) Before testing this card I had a TP-Link tx401 10GbE PCIe card in that slot (now using XikeStor 310 Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter).
    • Lack of 5.1 makes this a no sale. What I really wish creative would make would be a USB version that supports 5.1 analog audio for speakers, can switch to headphone mode, and matches the specs of their top tier cards. The current X870E AMD motherboards dont have a great option for adding a PCIE x1 card without cutting down pcie lanes to the graphics card.
    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot by Usama Jawad I have been actively using Microsoft Word for the past couple of decades in academic, professional, and personal capacities. Although I used it through the perpetual version of Office apps at the start, I have been an active subscriber of Microsoft 365 Family subscription for over five years now. This means that my Word installation is regularly updated with new features, some of which I don't really like, but that's beside the point. As new features get continuously added, old ones that used to be a staple of Word have started to take a backseat. While I was reminiscing over my Windows experiences from my childhood today, I suddenly remember one such capability that I heavily used in my younger years but have not really touched in over a decade, and haven't seen in documents created by others either. That feature is WordArt. Just to clarify, WordArt is not a Microsoft product specific to Word, and is included in other Office apps like PowerPoint and Excel too. However, Microsoft Word is the app that I used Word Art in heavily, while making assignments or other deliverables for school. If you're unaware, WordArt offers a collection of styling techniques for text, introducing 3D effects like shadows and reflections in the text. It used to be one of the coolest things ever when I was at school and me and my classmates would often compete to ensure that our assignment's title in WordArt was truly the best and stood out above the rest. See some examples of WordArt, still present in the latest versions of Word below: Although WordArt is undeniably cool, it has taken a bit of a backseat, and has been relegated from the Home tab to the Insert toolbar, along with a bunch of other utilities, making it very easy to miss. This isn't exactly surprising because WordArt doesn't really have a place in academic and professional documents anymore, and while I have seen some creatives using it while developing promo material, even that sector has gravitated more towards dedicated graphic designing tools in the past years. For the vast majority of us, WordArt doesn't really exist, and that's alright. At least, it's still an option that can allow us to reminisce our childhood or even make some quick text stylization, if we really need it. Perhaps its usage has waned over time or the novelty has worn off, but I haven't even seen children use it in their academic assignments anymore. In fact, many don't even know that it exists. Maybe that's the fate of every beloved feature. What once felt cutting edge eventually becomes a relic, quietly tucked away as tastes, trends, and technology move on. WordArt may no longer dominate school assignments or decorate the covers of classroom projects, but for those of us who grew up with it, it remains a colorful reminder of a time when making text glow, bend, and cast giant shadows felt like the height of creativity. Hidden behind a few clicks in modern Word, it still survives not as a productivity tool, but as a small piece of computing nostalgia that refuses to disappear.
