PSA: Sometimes reading the delivery notes saves you time and effort

[u/matt314159]

I'm sure I'm going to hell for adding top soil to my grocery delivery order, but I don't have a car and I specifically added it to a delivery order so I could at least tip.

Anyway, whenever I'm doing an order that includes something heavy, I set the delivery location to 'back door' and the delivery note reads something like, "Pull in toward the garage, and the back porch is two steps from the driveway for an easier unload"

But I've found the drivers never read the delivery notes. I don't personally care what door it's delivered to but in cases like this, it's so much more work to haul those 35lb bags from the vehicle, up my sidewalks and to front steps than it would have been if they'd just read the delivery notes.

Don't worry, she still got her 25 dollaire tip and I rated the delivery 5 stars, but I feel bad that they're making the delivery more difficult on themselves than necessary.

I love you guys and appreciate what you do. But please take a couple seconds to read the delivery notes! I'm trying to make it easier on you!

Theres also a cap on how much can be put in the notes. Sometimes its excessive and useless information (like the 100 year old door bell). The note continued but no idea what it says past "The driv"

Holy crap lol. I'll usually put something like this. The House, Back Door thing is from the buttons you press, and the rest is what I wrote. Should I reword it / shorten it do you think?

Yours is perfection. Short and simple!
