Never done it myself.

I see the takeaway driver going put though and I think is this a necessity to get someone out in bad weather to deliver you food?

Dont you have something in the house you coukd eat?
They say dont go out unless you have too. Our local.police are saying this tonight.

Is a takeaway really
necessary? Food for thought.

You wouldnt want to go out and collect, but your happy for someone else to drive to you in bad weather?

What did they do before food apps?

The implication that you’re in some way concerned about the welfare of delivery drivers while at the same time holding them and their choice of employment in such obvious disdain…🤣

I think OP you should consider reflecting on any internalised misogyny you might be suffering from. Do you also get angry at people employing others to wash their windows or mow their lawns or valet their cars? Or is it only domestic labour being outsourced that enrages you so? How do you feel about having a cleaner or using a launderette?
