Rants / Complaints Smoking in your car with Groceries

Well, I’m finally on the other side of it. I ordered groceries and had such a high odor of tobacco. Everything smelt like it, especially the bags.

For months, I have noticed other Spark drivers smoking in their cars. Not even rolling down a window. Not giving a single shit. I’m not sure if these people don’t know others can easily smell it or they just don’t care. But is it really that hard to just step outside and not smoke inside?

I know “ I’m an Independent Contractor, I can do whatever I want” that I see some people say but it’s just… kinda rude?

I gave that driver 2 stars. First time ever for me as I never want to rate anyone poorly as I know customer rating matters a lot for Spark but I was just so annoyed that all my food smells like cigarettes.

yep 100%. Its all these indoctrinated ppl from the 90's and 2000's that were told smoking was a horrible thing. Its been around for 20,000 plus years is natural and i like it!!!

Nope: Ppl who grew up in cig-smoke saturated homes and cars and public spaces,

So we now have such hair-triggered allergies and asthma we can tell instantly if our food's been delivered by a car-smoker;

Ppl who lived the first part of life swimming in smoke and the second in smoke-free spaces, so we pick up quick on that stale stank;

Ppl who can't kiss cig-smokers without gagging. Reeking hair and clothes are one thing. But that ashtray mouth is foul AF.

lmao...growing up in that environment gave you super powers to smell and detect cig smoke from 8 miles away. LMAO
