Being able to order various things online and get them delivered helps to save a lot of time. Especially being able to order some good food after a long and hard day. During the pandemic, getting things and food this way became even more convenient as people didn’t have to go anywhere and encounter others. Because of this, delivery services presented another clever solution - no-contact delivery. It was followed by a requirement by many delivery companies to take a picture of the delivery once it was brought next to a customer’s place.

This necessary step accidentally inspired a thread where people started sharing hilarious pictures taken by drivers of them picking up their delivery.

Which one of these do you find the most hilarious? Have you ever had your picture taken by a food delivery driver? Don’t forget to leave your thoughts in the comments down below!

If you’re curious to find out why it is necessary for drivers to take pictures once they are about to deliver you the food, there are two reasons for that. First of all, they need to confirm it with you that they delivered the food to the right place and the right person. Sometimes food gets delivered when no one is home, or when trying to avoid contact with another person. This is also really helpful when a customer claims that they didn’t get their delivery or if the delivery was ruined or missing something.

Knowing that we live in a world where a lot of information about us is stored, one might ask whether it is okay to take someone’s picture without permission. Users of Reddit had a whole discussion about this when a user @warwm asked others online: “Do delivery guys have to take a pic of the customer grabbing the food?”. The user found this quite unusual, so a lot of people started sharing their own experience as customers and those who deliver the food.

It was mentioned that even when a delivery person takes someone’s picture, they usually do it by accident when a person suddenly opens the door or is even already waiting for the delivery. It was also stated that in a case when you are in the shot, this picture is not saved in the phone but rather is just in the app, sent to the customer, so they would know that their food was brought to the right person.

Some people working in this industry revealed that they sometimes don’t take the picture as proof if they bring the delivery straight into the person’s arms or see how they take it. Some users find it risky as you never know if that was the right person or if later they won’t blame you for not delivering their food.
