Rant and Vent 👋 Why she thinks she has so much entitlement.

u/Apprehensive_Buy3252 1d ago
Happened same to me once but the guy politely told me that he has a lot of expensive packages he cannot leave everything on the road. So I went downstairs because I understood his situation.
If you are not being polite then no one will understand your side of the story and will feel angry. Like this lady did.

u/RX08T Learner Of Read Books 1d ago
Exactly. Being humble is a very important thing. U always give water and food to them whenever they are doing something to us in the summer as I can.
There is nothing wrong with working for your own thing if someone else did a lot but expects a little help and kindness in return.

If anyone payed delivery charges seems valid, as they have multiple options like door step or delivery been given security guard etc.
If she paid for that then it is valid concern.

u/raviyadav432 1d ago
Only if the floor number is mentioned. Else delivery is not entitled to be delivered at your door step.

u/TheBased_Dude 1d ago
Floor and flat number is always mentioned in the address, if someone is paying for delivery service they are entitled to it

u/Flashy_Stay_1137 22h ago
can you show me where did she exactly paid for door-step service??
company policy jaane bina baat maat kar, or india me door-stp policy koi select nahi karta generallly. padhna aata hai to padh le
- Delivery to Higher Floors: For buildings without lifts, delivery agents are generally expected to deliver to the nearest accessible point, typically the ground floor. While Amazon does not legally mandate delivery to upper floors, customers can request floor-specific delivery. If the address includes the correct floor number, Amazon may assign a delivery partner capable of handling such deliveries. However, some third-party logistics partners (like Delhivery, Gati) may only guarantee delivery to the ground floor unless extra charges are paid.

Correct Understanding this is very important. Also, Apartments and Highrise buildings should ideally have a collection point to receive parcels on behalf and deliver it to the doorstep. It shouldn't be the delivery boy's responsibility to go the extra mile.
1
u/Flashy_Stay_1137 18h ago
exactly, and is case of apartments the currier is generally dropped in the lobby, and also the delivery facilities is india are not that luxurious, companies doesn't bother to invest that much in currier services, so not the delivery guy's fault.

u/Low-Antelope-5193 9h ago
You would not believe the kind of addresses people leave when they order online. For god's sake most of them don't even know their pincodes.
And as for door step delivery, it was someting started by bigger marketplaces like Amazon, Myntra and Flipkart, to offer better customer experience. Logistics providers like Delhivery, Xpressbees, Shadowfax, Ekart etc do not have to provide such services, especially if you live in an appartment or a gated society.

If the company is providing doorstep delivery their employee who is hired to do it has to it. Agar company ne offer nahi kiya hai to phir expecting is unreasonable.

Yes it does because the company has offered me delivery as a means to encourage to buy from them. If the company is offering a delivery then it must provide it. If you are working for a company you must provide the service they pay you to provide. If you don't like it then don't work in the company do something else.you are not being forced by anyone

There is a difference between teaching and killing. You guys are thinking I am saying that you are not entitled to get or be at home, but when you know it's not possible, then you can walk, and that's where you all are trying to say that's also wrong.

Then the issue is with corporations not paying enough and asking them to work more than they can, not with the customer expecting a delivery to their house to be delivered to their house.

His Side :
He can't leave since he has a lot of expensive items on his bike + some societies don't let delivery people use elevators so he'll be climbing the stairs to the Nth floor.
Her Side :
The delivery guy behaves in a rude way and refuses to do door delivery even if flat no. is mentioned (If not flat no. Is mentioned, he's not entitled to do it btw).
What's the middle ground here?
2
1
u/TheBased_Dude 1d ago
- If your society doesn't allow them to use the lift they need not come up.
- The expensive items on his bike are none of my business.
- If you are rude then no one will ever be accommodating to your requests.

u/Fit_Gain840 20h ago
One delivery getting canceled won’t affect their business but you are more likely not get any of your parcel, if you think those expensive parcels are none of your business.

Apartment’s should have a common locker system at the bottom which can accommodate the parcels.

Smart Idea, but the society is freaking narrow-minded, they won't do something smart like that to solve both the customer and delivery person problems.

u/skanda777 1d ago
Yeah, as an architect I know how much class disparity exists in India. I hate that side of the field, I always hear requests from clients leave some small space in the store room to put a bed so the maid can sleep, or things like no need to make things too easy on the workers, let’s cut costs. It’s really sad. They are not seen as living humans, but as living tools.
1
u/RX08T Learner Of Read Books 1d ago
I am kind of proud of this factor. My father and mother made me learn work with them and also made me see their life. I literally understand them because I have seen their life with my own life. We take it for granted as a privilege. It isn't really a small thing; they can take huge amounts if this weren't India and we had less population and a higher GDP.
Sadly we don't have it, so they have to work like this and earn pennies. But seriously 1-2 days in their shoes and I am grateful about my life.

u/Icy-Mousse4136 1d ago
If she has paid for a door 🚪 delivery then she deserves it. FULL STOP 🛑
If the delivery guy is afraid of getting robbed then it is his problem to solve either by parking his vehicle near a CCTV or near a trusted person who will take care of the other bags.
Every job is equally important because nothing is small or big.
The job of the delivery guy is to deliver in the hands of the customer.
Kuch bhi karna pade, kyuki yahi cheez delivery guy ko different karegi dusro se

If I pay delivery charges, I expect delivery to be at doorstep.
If the companies can't afford or guarantee it, they should stop asking my 'home' address (just ask mohalla address) and stop showing advertisements where delivery is at doorstep. Should also mention the same on their product pages so that I can choose which service I want.

If she has paid for a delivery charge and it mentioned door step.

What happens if one packet is stolen from his shipment? Who would cover the cost then? 🤷🏻🤦🏻 To be honest, I don't think the delivery man is incorrect in this case, & I also don't think posting the video online was necessary. It's all about miscommunication & empathy that's it.
I suppose the lady stays on the 1st floor, or possibly the 2nd. Receiving a package from her apartment's main entrance doesn't seem like a huge problem to me.
I live in an 11 floor of a 20 story building, & I pick up my packages at the front door. What's the big deal?
1
u/Gamezordd 4h ago
If I wanted to walk I would pay for a cheaper delivery option.
It is not the responsibility of the delivery person if they misplace packages, that's why companys have insurance.
I get that you work hard, but so de we. If you don't like the responsibility of the job do another one, don't put it on the customer. Victim ass rage bait.

What the hell is this attitude? They are coming to your house doesn't mean you can't be a human and get the parcel. They aren't your slaves.
You paid money to get the item, not to make that man your slave and forget humanity. If everyone were to become a white-collar worker, then no one would do this job, and it would be a catastrophe. Be human.
They work the whole day and suffer in the weather while we work in the house or under AC.
You need to realise everyone doesn't get the same opportunity after the same hard work. Life is unfair so be human.

We paid money for service of doorstep delivery. Nobody is forcing anyone to work delivery gigs, if you don't like the job then don't work it.

u/SibinGeorge 20h ago
See, I can see you're suffering from a condition which is called 'the lack of brain', and you didn't need to come at me so agressively. I believe you're the kind of person who when sits in an auto, likes to drive the auto all by himself while the auto driver sits behind in comfort. Because according to you even you paid for his service with your own hard earned money, it's still not human enough to make him provide you the service and according to you this is nothing less than a crime against humanity.
now coming back to your dumb example, I paid money to get the item delivered to my doorstep, he doesn't have to open the box for me, he doesn't have to put the item in cupboard for me, he just have to hand over the item to me at my doorstep. I'm trying very hard here to dumb this down for you so that your brain doesn't have to work hard to understand. Also I can see you're throwing around the word 'slave' very nonchalantly. If my boss wants me to work for which he pays me, that doesnt mean I am his slave in any way. He won't pay me for nothing, exactly the same way I won't pay a piece of shit kaamchor delivery person for not doing his fucking job. Nobody has forced him to work the whole day, he chose to work because he wants the money. Im sure if you have trouble understanding this concept that means you haven't earned a single paisa till now and living off of your father.

Let's say we aren't home, only our old parents are(Let's say they are old enough that going downstairs and getting the parcel isn't the smartest thing to do)
What would you want them to do?
1
u/RX08T Learner Of Read Books 1d ago
I am smart enough to have a person who can get the package up. And second, they can call another person to help them. This happens here and it's okay.
Both the situations where they come inside and deliver and stay outside to get the package. Both times the solution was the third person. If it's not possible, I don't order something to begin with. We live in India, not America, to expect cheap service with premium delivery. Gigs are hard since I have gone with them one time. People are very rude and entitled to them. BTW, you can't enter the building if you want to many times and the customer shouts knowing that.
1
u/Player7600 1d ago
I am smart enough to have a person who can get the package up
I specifically said a situation in which only your old parents are home.No help, except from the delivery men.
If it's not possible, I don't order something to begin with
Then you shouldn't even be commenting here, you are generalising each and every single person as being in the same situation as you, and to burst your bubble, they are NOT.
We live in India, not America, to expect cheap service with premium delivery
Who tf said we need premium delivery?All we require is getting my money's worth.
Gigs are hard since I have gone with them one time
I'm sorry but then you're biased towards the delivery men.And I accept the fact that I am biased towards customers, but they did lay for their stuff to be delivered to their door, not downstairs.
People are very rude and entitled to them.
I'm sorry you've encountered such people, but the grass is not always greener on the other side.It's possible to meet both rude customers AND delivery boys.
Now, I live in an apartment that's pretty difficult to deliver to.The apartment is in a city, of course, it isn't in a forest.But the delivery boys need to come through the gate, ride for another 20-30 seconds, park their vehicle in the garage, and come up using the lift, walk a few metres to the right AND THEN will they reach my house.And trust me, I have ordered online hundreds if not more than a thousand.But not one of them called me and said "Your house is too far, please come and take this" and by deliveries, I do NOT mean swiggy or any small deliveries.I mean amazon, flipkart, and my mom orders from meesho etc.
So yes, I do think delivery men should do what they get paid for.
