uber eats

Even before the pandemic, the amount of people using delivery services like Uber Eats and Door Dash has skyrocketed over the years. It's amazing the price people will pay for a little extra convenience. For the most part, the job is probably pretty boring and annoying, but you've gotta wonder what strange encounters couriers have experienced over the years. One redditor asked delivery service workers to share some of the weirder things that happened on the job, and the responses were pretty entertaining—these workers have seen everything from BBQ rib orgies to basement puppy parties. We've collected some of our favorite anecdotes for your amusement.

Millions of people have been working from home since the start of the pandemic, which means couriers and food service workers have been going hard at the delivery game all through quarantine. It shouldn't be a surprise that the couriers of Caviar, Doordash, Favor, GrubHub, Instacart, Postmates, and UberEATS have some amusing stories. r/couriersofreddit is a subreddit where workers share relatable memes, funny experiences, and screenshots of both good and bad interactions with customers. We've gathered a bunch of amusing and eye-opening posts from the sub to remind everyone to be kind to couriers and tip extra in these crazy times.
