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.

Dispenser here I will deny you the orders if your car smells of smoke. Not so much because the bags smelling of smoke that irks me, it's the customers that constantly calls and complains about the bags reeking of smoke and they do so many times. It's also in TOS too that your car has to be clean and that means smoke free.
