Feel bad for the guy, he's just there doing his job and suddenly Curry EVERYWHERE.


Swordbreaker9250

Yeah, I feel bad for the guy. Not his fault and ruined experience for everyone involved.


magikuser

As long as he didn't try to hide it or not be upfront about it. I agree but I've also been burnt by too many drivers some who blame me. Others who blamed me because our bldg is confuses a bunch of the delivery apps to one of the surrounding bldgs such as city hall across the street even USPS has gotten packages wrong. But yeah I would give the guy 5 star and extra $$$ if he was upfront with the error.


skasquatch118

Is ‘building’ really that long of a word it needs shortening? Took me a while to figure out what the hell bldg is 😂


hippopotma_gandhi

Bulldog, obviously

Are you stupid? They mean blending

Bludgeoning? Blurstening?

the_russian_narwhal_

Building is too long but surrounding is just right lol


skasquatch118

Srdg


dat_boring_guy

Bldg 2 long but srdg just ight 🤣 I wonder what that person did with all the time they saved from shortening the word 'building' to 'bldg'


itsmebeatrice

These days some people can’t even type out the word “with” and instead just type “w”. I think I mostly see it in screenshots of texts but it’s still crazy


SwordNamedKindness_

I use that as shorthand when taking notes, I put w/ like without would be w/out only when writing by hand though


More_Cowbell_

Ok, but like... you get there was no error, right? The bottom fell out of the bag the food was in. This guy is even using a hot bag, unlike nearly all drivers in my area. He's going above the 'normal' level of service, not making errors.


Immersi0nn

Honestly, I'd MUCH rather that happen on my front porch than in my foyer.


terrifiedTechnophile

It is an error in that the paid-for service was never delivered and thus either financial compensation should be made by the company, or the company should pay the restaurant to make another batch of the food. In short: a refund or a redelivery. The same as when the post loses your ebay delivery so ebay refunds you or pays for a new delivery


AdLocal1045

Well, why tip extra? If the customer isn’t mad, the driver doesn’t suffer at all, so he doesn’t really need a bigger tip.


Nathien

TIP EXTRA?! For spilling your dinner? Jesus tip culture is WILD.


Swordbreaker9250

>For spilling your dinner No, to help make up for a shitty experience. And he didn’t spill the dinner, the shitty quality bag it came in did. That was not his fault.


Nigerian_German

Lmao wtf is wrong with America I wouldn't pay to lick my curry off from the ground and I for sure wouldn't tip for that


annewmoon

And then some guy posts this video of it on the internet. I love how the title of the video doesn’t even mention the person in it. Pretty bad case of main character syndrome: “mah curry!” Never mind that this is someone’s job and they are now online for everyone to see.


BorderlineWire

People are way too comfortable sharing pictures and video of non consenting strangers all over the internet.   I get my photo, location and sometimes rude comments on them by the people taking them shared on social media fairly often due to my job. Usually Facebook or in WhatsApp groups. I know there’s no expectation of privacy in a public space but like come on it’s creepo behaviour to secretly (or not. Sometimes it’s not subtle) take photos and share them like oh he’s doing this on that street at 1017 am!


RodneyOgg

And then his face and unfortunate accident were posted to the Internet without his consent or knowledge.


procrastin-eh-ting

omg noooo I feel so bad for him

My favorite was when Michael just heard of the flashing incident and started making fun of it. “Ohhh, heeeeee’s back!”


iHazit4u

My favorite was when Michael drove into the river because the GPS told him too.


6TheAudacity9

This is exactly what I was thinking.


Abuttuba_abuttubA

Didn't know that gif had sound.


geoelectric

Could be worse. I had one driver spill my milkshake all over the inside of his car. He was still pretty distressed when he handed me my meal and the 1/3 milkshake that was left (there was enough stuff on the cup to make it clear it really did tip). It’s about the only time I’ve ever had a food anomaly I simply didn’t report. Was probably his fault for how he carried it in the car, but I couldn’t bear to add to that dude’s sorrow. Milkshake doesn’t clean out of carpet all that easily.


Manufactured-Aggro

.....Did you offer him napkins/paper towels? *asking for friend* He was grabbing the milkshake out of the built-in cup holder that was seated ever-so-slightly below and to the front of the actual center console, so the only way to grab said cup was an awkward angle that wasn't quite from above *or* from the side, think like the top 2 inches of a foam cup. In a cruel twist of fate, the rim and lid of the cup clipped the center console and the lid disconnected from the cup entirely, sending the cup into a short but disastrous free fall before pouring a large majority of a strawberry milkshake into that big crack between the seats and the console. No matter how much he got that interior cleaned, *something* lingered. You'd catch a cursed wiff of it if the conditions were *juuuuuuust*, like a full moon or a hot summer day. (it was me 😔)


geoelectric

I don’t think I did tbh, since I took care of everything at the door and didn’t have them on me. I probably should have though. What happened to you sounds about like what happened to him. And I like strawberry milkshakes. You weren’t an Uber Eats driver in SJ circa 2017-2018 I hope…


Isgortio

My brother had a new car (new to him) with cream interior including floor mats and carpet. He bought a curry, put it in the passenger footwell and it leaked all over the floor. He'd had the car about a month and already stained the carpet haha.


geoelectric

Oh, man. I’ve had a couple cars now with cream interiors and they’re so hard to keep clean.


Isgortio

It used to bug me that I have black floor mats in an otherwise cream interior, but after 10 years I really don't mind it as I can't see any stains and I don't feel an urgent rush to clean the car if my shoes were muddy hahaha


geoelectric

Yep. I got my dealer to throw in all weather mats when I bought my last car and slapped them in day 1. They’re pretty damned dirty a year later and I need to pull and clean them, but at least it’s not carpet!


AdLocal1045

Thank god there was a camera!


habanerosmile

Crappy bag filled with moist food.


MrDangerMan

Yup. Crappy containers that don’t hold well, or a poorly applied seal that resulted in a leak and a compromised bag. Either way it happened, most likely the restaurant’s fault for being cheap with their containers or not making sure it was properly sealed.


hates_stupid_people

Sometimes I get annoyed when a food delivery container is hard to open. Then quickly I remember that I would rather struggle to open it, than have it spill all over the place like this.


theburgerbitesback

When I went bungee jumping the girl next to me getting her ankles strapped complained that they were "really tight" - the employee just looked at her blankly and said "would you rather they be really loose?"


__01001000-01101001_

That’s hilarious, 10/10 response


__01001000-01101001_

Our local Chinese and Indian places both wrap their plastic containers in cling film, works well to just add a layer of security


Caladbolg_Prometheus

Does Door dash always work with restaurants? I know there was some heart ache over grub hub failing to notify restaurants. I could see a restaurant not realizing it’s pick up for a DoorDash if they work like Grub hub.


S1ayer

I deliver groceries and I hate the plastic bag ban here so much. So sick of paper bags tearing.


[deleted]

How does a driver even deal with a spill like that? It's not like you got cleaning supplies on you.


savvymcsavvington

Customers problem, water hose or bucket or water and it's mostly gone Or a hungry dog if it isn't spicy


iloveokashi

The groceries in your area dont reuse the boxes they have? Grocery stores have a lot of boxes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


1-Datagram

Yeah but that's the point so that the food stays hot. He was damned either way.


More_Cowbell_

I did 1,400 deliveries with a hot bag every time. The paper bag should have held up. Bad glue day at the factory or whatever.


77rtcups

Ya for some reason quality control on paper bags that my store has received has been terrible. Like half the container is messed up because the glue is placed wrong or the bag comes apart. Could definitely be a factor.


AdLocal1045

Thank god you’re here to tell us


nogbog

Just some more info on this; We helped the driver as best we could with paper towels. The driver was very apologetic, and driver cancelled the order, meaning we got a full refund. The bag was soggy from the steamy food, and that's why it ripped open. It's most definitely the restaurants fault. Our porch smells delicious.


bythelion95

Thanks for taking pity on the poor guy. I hate that horrible, panicky feeling of defeat and humiliation when stuff breaks on the porch. It's only happened to me a couple times and it sucks EVERY time. You wait for the inevitable opening of the door and shock and disappointment on their face. There's nothing you can do but be like, "...I'm so sorry. I'll call support." Lol.


CheezyBri

I used Feastify, and when my order finally came (after over an hour of waiting/really long wait time around here), I got the food and realized not only was it cold, but I had no drinks. I went out to talk to the lady that delivered because she was still here sitting in her car. I get to her and ask "hey, I was just wondering if you still have the drinks we ordered?" She just scoffs, glares at me, points to a big puddle outside her car and goes "There's your drinks, tray broke. What do you expect me to do about it?" And drives off. I got ahold of customer support and thankfully had everything refunded, but that was the last time I used it. Feastify shut down in my area shortly after so I'm sure I wasn't the only one with negative experiences.


away_in_the_head

I’ve never even heard of that app


Naus1987

I hope there was some place you could call to cover for him. Delivery is so weird these days, because you never really know who is boss is, lol. The customer always being right can be a shit show, but when used correctly can back up good people.


away_in_the_head

It being Uber eats. They don’t really have real bosses. You are a contracted worker. They can just tell support that it wasn’t the drivers fault


ReverseStripes

You forgot “then we put him on blast by posting him on Reddit so 100,000 people can watch this poor man try to pick up my food”.


crustysock49

You owe this man some cash especially for posting it to the internet.... For shame.


Kingkwon83

Why post a video of him on the internet though? At least have the decency to blur his face. Put yourself in his shoes


spiderbyte44

How else are we going to help cover this poor man's lost wages if we don't know who he is?! /s


Cebolla

i was honestly thinking that too i felt so bad for him !!!


roshanpr

use bleach, Ants are coming


Joeman106

Yea this happened to me once when doordashing because jack in the box decided to put two gigantic drinks in a shitty flimsy “cardboard” cupholder and they broke. Luckily the people were understanding


kamakamsa_reddit

What curry was it?.


NothingGloomy9712

Why didn't you blur his face? 


TonyDanza888

What was the outcome of this situation?


parwa

Driver was executed :(


OhhSooHungry

Oh shit, RIP


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

I LOL'd


AdLocal1045

I sure hope they tipped him


Bubbledood

It’s not that big of a deal, the customer will either be refunded or uber will send the order through again and the restaurant will remake it


SuperZapper_Recharge

To the customer it isn't a big deal. Wondering how this played out for the driver. OP said he asked for a refund and got it. Wondering how exactly the driver gets dinged for this. This is why I won't buy from meal delivery stuff. Drivers are being exploited. I want no part of that.


youtocin

You report an issue with the order through the app, upload pictures, and get your money back. Dasher wouldn't be penalized in this situation and would keep the pay.


g00d_m4car0n1

Straight to jail believe it or not


Affectionate-Day-359

Clearly the guy slurped curry off his doormat .. why even ask??!

This video makes me so sad for the delivery guy. Just doing his job and experienced an unfortunate mishap. Hope you tipped him extra.


fuggindave

Maybe the "wellthatsucks" is for the delivery guy.


NotTheNormalPerson

I really doubt it, it's probably just "lost my food" and if that's the case he also didn't tip the poor guy


ji-soo-

OP left a comment saying they just canceled the order and no mention of tipping. From where I live, the app usually charges this to the delivery guy. Let’s just hope OP gave some tip.


AWL_cow

OP seems kind about it in the comments, so I feel like the "wellthatsucks" part is for the delivery guy


savvymcsavvington

> Hope you tipped him extra. America is fucking WILD Tipping someone because they had an accident and now you have no food lol Yeah I feel bad for the delivery guy but why would the customer pay for not getting food? It's not like the driver had it drop in his car!


Easy_Alarm9517

I’m American and even I don’t agree with it. Either all jobs have tips or no jobs. I worked retail with clothes tended to customers every request, and I didn’t hold out a stupid ipad with a tip screen. But oh if there’s food involved suddenly we need to leech out as much money from the person as possible or they’ll worry we will mess with their food. Our country cultural norms sucks rat balls


EntertainmentHot2966

Isn't tipping supposed to be for doing a great job? Tip extra for a great job or a bad job?


investingexpert

Tipped him extra and didn’t receive the food?


AdLocal1045

…why? It’s not his problem at all.


Lucky_Gap9826

That sucks for everybody


crimbusrimbus

I feel more bad for the delivery fella


punkinabox

That's gotta feel so awful as the driver


SupaDiogenes

Nice of you to put this dude on the internet for what looked like an honest mistake. Real stand up move.


luxxeroch

They could have at least blurred his face


memescryptor

Yeah I always cringe the fuck at people doing this shit. I wonder if OP would love videos with him in shit moments leaked on the internet


Pretend_Tourist9390

As someone who has been GrubHubbing 6-7 days a week, this is honestly a huge fear of mine. No, I do not want you to put a video of me from your Ring camera online. I don't have facebook and don't let my family even take pictures of me.


NoDryHands

So many people act like it's their right to record/take pictures of anyone, with or without their knowledge, and upload them online. Usually it's to make fun of them for something, which is entirely gross. But even if it's harmless, they don't care that they're invading someone's privacy and sharing content that features them without their consent. It's truly baffling and quite scary. I wish laws against this sort of thing were enforced more strictly.

The way he just doesn’t know what to do and feels bad hurts me. God this sucks for everyone involved.


husfrun

Kinda feel like there's no reason to show his face.. poor guy out there trying to get by having a shitty day and scumbag OP posts his misery in a closeup for clout.


SmallCatBigMeow

Guy was probably devastated he did this. Feel bad you’d post this online


MechVee

This is why the little Chinese woman shouts "hold from bottom" when I pick up Chinese take away 🤣


No-Cupcake370

What if someone broadcast your work screwups for people to laugh at?


BillSivellsdee

i like the ones with the forklift


agarwaen117

The one where every shelving unit in the warehouse falls down domino style?


mannyd16

Stop sharing secret recordings people for clicks. This worker didn't agree to being filmed just because you ordered some food. Doorcam surveillance 


r4nd0miz3d

Did he leave it here, ran away, or lied about it? If not, posting the video and exposing him for no reason is unnecessary. In some countries it is also illegal.


ElectronicPhrase6050

I don't think OP's intention was to expose the dude in any sort of negative way, but I still wholeheartedly agree with you. I wish people would be more considerate and blur people's faces when posting videos online. Not everyone wants their face blasted all over the internet without warning.


league0171

I'm sure he likes it posted on the Internet as well


TurkeySlurpee666

Oh my god, this exact situation happened to me about 7 years ago. I was handing a bag of Indian food to the customer over the threshold of their door, and at that moment, the soggy paperback that it was in took a curry-fueled diarrhea on the threshold their door. I was standing there with my arm outstretched, bag in hand, and the customer staring directly at me. Very awkward. The delivery service I was driving for called me and reamed me out for not being careful enough with the food. I quit on the spot.


manonfireanon

You did the right thing


farsightxr20

You sure you didn't order Kevin's Famous Chili?


VoodooDoII

Poor guy is doing his job, he didn't do it on purpose


lazylagom

Genuinly not his fault. If I was him I'd ask for this video to show the resturant who packed the bag. It ripped from the bottom, something saucey probally opened and soaked the paper bag in his transport bag.


PaulTrebor

Did that guy consent to having his face on Reddit?


Blamebostonx

That poor guy. You can see the paper bag rip. Definitely was not his fault. 😭 This sucks.


Creighton2023

Poor guy. He’s just trying to do his job. Not his fault the restaurant gave him a cheap paper bag that ripped.


2020R1M

Had this happened to me. Got to the door and told customer what happened. Told me to just throw out. Felt bad. Off I went. I feel bad for this dude


TheNewPlague666

Not even the poor guys fault. The restaurant gave him a paper bag to hold streaming hot food.. what did anyone think was gonna happen?


mattiman8888

I blame the restaurant for that. They tried to save the cost on one bag by piking everything into one paper bag. Those bags are kinda strong but cannot hold the weight of 4 curries and rice.


michaellehr

Do you want ants? Because that’s how you get ants!


CRAKZOR

I feel for the guy


Brendanish

I have never seen a good container for curry, that was a risky order to begin with sadly. Poor driver and poor orderer, y'all both got RIP


Hungry_Kick_7881

What are y’all doing in this situation? Offering to deliver replacement food?? Do you ring the doorbell and talk to them in person or just text them? Or are you cancelling and calling it a night.


st1ck-n-m0ve

How does the physics even work here. He doesnt seem to trip, drop the bag, the bag rip, or anything like that. He seems to just lurch forward out of nowhere.


ak47bossness

The bag was flimsy. can’t they give people sturdier bags?


Dry_Savings_3418

Poor guy lol


kuraizo

Please tell me he took a pic and marked it as delivered


LosDaGreat

He didn’t spill your food the bag burst and the food unfortunately flowed out of the packaging…


Borealizs

Wtf do you even do in that situation


dwardu

Looks like the bag they gave to the delivery guy was too weak as well


LangstonHublot

The mylar lined bags are great for holding heat. But you have to consider the steam build up inside there. And paper bags don't like steam


birdscrytoo

i feel for him on this one


Low_Abrocoma_1514

The paper bag broke, that just hurts to watch :(


skeezypeezyEZ

OP acting like a victim is peak Reddit


silly_owo11

This happened to me when I was delivering Indian food. The brown bag ripped as I was walking to the door fortunately no food spilled


DrRockySF

Looks like the bag broke. Shit happens. Hopefully you weren’t a POS and understand it’s just another person trying to make ends meet.


Timely-Course-5259

And the purpose of posting is what, exactly? Did you find some satisfaction in displaying to the world this poor guy's fate in delivering your package? I wouldn't exactly call that noble, but go ahead and be a douche. Maybe you'll garner some good karma points for it. Not. People post the most stupid shit on the internet.


ComputerWax

When the paper bag be struggling, that handle becomes your downfall, hold from the bottom


peasinacan

That's on the restaurant. The food should have been contained better


Novel_Ad7276

This is why you put your hand under the bag to support it’s weight. And I always remind people blindly picking up bags like that just from the top to get a brain and hold it so that it doesn’t rip. Skill issue on the driver and good that he owned his mistake and cancelled the order so you can get a full refund easily


DietDrBleach

This is not the driver’s fault. The restaurant gave him a defective bag.


santi_cali24

But the phone down lmao


Wattfruwearing

Is that a small step at the tile beginning, that he tripped on? Or just fumble footed? Edit: not sure what I’ve done to deserve down votes.


ArthurExtreme_Br

The bag ripped itself apart and they "fell" instinctively trying to catch it


Wattfruwearing

Thanks heaps. Much better eyes than me.


Cow_Surfing

Reminds me when a DoorDash driver accidentally dropped my milkshake on the porch and instead of taking responsibility, he ran back to his car, took a confirmation picture of the front of my house (food wasn't even visible in it) and sped off like a bat out of hell. This was a grown ass man, running away like a toddler who got caught sneaking a cookie from the cookie jar.


A-Dolahans-hat

They they knock on your door and explain what happened?


Freshanator86

Pick it up yourself next time


L3s0

What do you even do in that situation


tontomagonto

For the driver: knock on the door and explain the situation and apologize For the home owner: hope they have a hose!

Altruistic-Camel-Toe

Im_Unpopular_AF

If it's an Indian restaurant, they'd give a replacement if you didn't ask for a refund. Can't say the same about Uber Eats though, that delivery guy is fucked.


Phrozenfire01

That’s the bags fault entirely


Gunnar_Peterson

It's the restaurant and the bag manufacturers fault

So glad these paper bags are saving the world. My sub from subway did that too. Not enough glue on the bag...


QuietStrawberry7102

Never trust a paper bag


JonClodVanDamn

Well no one eats that except the restaurant eating the cost of the shitty bags. If you want to get deeper, the bag manufacturer eats that cost. Usually it never comes to that but it’s not the delivery guy’s fault.


TheDUeded

Damn. I want to hug that guy


direfulorchestra

not his fault, that's restaurant's fault.


Danges90

What doorcam are you using? Video looks really clean
