Probably more effective to give to a food pantry to avoid the corporate profit cut, but the thought is very nice.

[-] IMongoose@lemmy.world 124 points 4 months ago

Many restaurants let people pay when they pick up or get the food delivered. So doing this costs the restaurant money, not OP. That's why he's spoofing his info too, if he paid they probably wouldn't care enough to ban the number.

[-] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 12 points 4 months ago

Okay cool, I thought they were ordering online and pre paying.

[-] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

you think "calling" means "ordering online"? what the hell do you think caller id is?

I am not quite sure what the joke is about, could you explain? Those helmets seem to be used for preventing injuries in case of health conditions like epilepsy, but I can't make a connection at all

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago

They're saying OP is slow and the helmet is there to prevent them from hurting themselves in the future.

OP isn't paying for the order, they're ordering over the phone for local pickup, which means they'd pay when they arrive. And OP isn't going to the store for pickup...

wdym? He orders but never shows up and pays

[-] TheDarksteel94@sopuli.xyz 72 points 4 months ago

Yeeah, so, don't most restaurants just throw out the uneaten food nowadays, out of concern for getting sued over hygiene issues?

[-] FeelThePower@lemmy.dbzer0.com 81 points 4 months ago

I worked at a restaurant a couple of years ago and we would just take excess food home still.

[-] neo@lemy.lol 32 points 4 months ago

Calling the police right now! /s

It's a theft thing. Middle managers are concerned about employees purposely making accidents so that they may then eat. It's all about that money honey

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 39 points 4 months ago

I work for a pizza place and routinely take home orders that didn't get picked up, maybe fancier restaurants just throw their stuff out. We also give those orders to people experiencing homelessnness if they stop in around closing time.

[-] sukhmel@programming.dev 4 points 4 months ago

That's good to hear ❤️

[-] bassomitron@lemmy.world 26 points 4 months ago

They have that policy, but most shift managers aren't assholes and don't care. Also, I know a lot of places around where I live donate the excess food to shelters.

I now know why all the restaurants require txt message confirmation of order now.

[-] answersplease77@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

and it has to be prepaid, or the delivery driver pays it out of their pocket. I don't understand how OP's thing works, most likely fake and gay

[-] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

The restaurants I order from don't require prepay. You can pay online or when you pickup your order.

what delivery driver? Are you drunk, fake or gay?

[-] manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 20 points 4 months ago

I hate my ex wife, haha, women bad

[-] damnedfurry@lemmy.world 38 points 4 months ago

$500 says you've never replied to a post where a woman implies her ex-husband was a bad person with "I hate my ex husband, haha, men bad"

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 months ago

but maybe they love their husband

some ex partners absolutely hate each other's guts, that's not a chauvinistic thing, that's an unfortunate but un-gendered fact of life.

It doesn't seem unreasonable to me that someone dislikes their ex-wife. It's implied with the term "ex" that there was something wrong with the relationship that couldn't be salvaged. Must everything be seen through the lens of misogyny?

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 9 points 4 months ago

Haha, divorce bad, domestic abuse charges go brrr

[-] nutsack@lemmy.world 17 points 4 months ago

I've never heard of being able to order food without paying for it

[-] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 15 points 4 months ago

Where I live you can order food and pay the delivery person with cash at your door. So the restaurant will prepare the food and send it out without taking any payment.

You've never ordered for local pickup? Just order over the phone or select "pay in store" online.

[-] nutsack@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

i tried once and they told me to call uber eats or whatever

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

How would uber eats provide local pickup? Are you going to meet the uber driver at the restaurant? That sounds... overly complicated...

[-] Nicoleism101@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I still have -60$ balance in one app from not picking up the order

You could say they banned me with 60 dollars to unban but I just use competition
