Entitled treat hogs want their shit in 24 hours and they want all the consequences to fall on the people 'lower' than them. Fuck them.
The problem, my dear, is Amazon.
The problem is suburbs and single family homes. They want all of the convenience and infrastructure of living in a city they just want it spread out to the point they never have to interact with anyone else. Give me a centralized community center where people go to get their deliveries and it solves everybody's problem.
That's also a problem. Most of the people on Fuck Cars also acknowledge that suburbanism is not sustainable, and want denser communities.
I wish they'd just use the postal service. In Canada they've set up nice secure package boxes and leave a key in your normal (also secured) mailbox. And if it takes a few days to arrive, so be it.
They should change extra for packages too large or urgent for Canada Post and use that money to hire professionals that understand not everything revolves around their delivery schedule and that random cyclists that happen to be passing through the area have nothing to do with their orders.
What an amazingly spoiled child you are. Framing your entitlement as a law of nature that mustn't just be kowtowed to but needs to be 'understood'
And your framing of 'professionalism' as just being willing to accept more wear and tear on their bodies for no other reason than to 'understand' the world revolves around YOU. Because you're too fucking important and privileged to be delayed a few seconds or god forbid turn your precious neck to look over your shoulder. Champagne liberals. Me me me.
Ok lol now I realize you're just trolling and probably aren't even a delivery driver. Almost had me going for a sec there gg.
Oh no a selfish piece of shit that openly wishes harm against me is going to fuck off quick let me take a picture of my employee badge no pls don't go
