Used to have a regular slot and mostly the same driver. He would empty the van and pile up the crates outside my front door before ringing the bell.
He (and I) would then bring all the stuff into the kitchen within a couple of minutes.
This driver seems to have changed and the last 3 deliveries they have all been different. They have all rung the doorbell to let me know they've arrived before they've unloaded the crates.
This annoys me because:
- I work from home (have an office in the loft) so once I'm downstairs I'm twiddling my thumbs waiting for them to unload the van.
- I don't know whether to shut the front door again and say 'ring when you've got all the crates out' or what?
- The driver today unloaded ONE crate at a time and left my front door wide open each time he went outside, letting in the freezing cold air!
I did say why didn't he get everything out first and he just looked at me as if I was mad (not sure if he spoke English and understood?)
- I usually unpack everything before putting away in cupboards/fridges, so I don't want to start putting away items one by one as they arrive in the kitchen.
Yes, I know, 'first world problems' , but WWYD?
