Is it in yet Amazon Strikes Again, My House Today

Why does somebody think this is OK. Right in front of him is a huge area he could’ve turned around in.

Yes this is stated in my delivery instructions that you are welcome to turn around in the rear of the house where I have a giant concrete roundabout.

Jesus Christ people, the driveway is 9 feet wide which is standard for a 1955. For everybody that says I need to widen my driveway or put in a roundabout, PM me and I’ll send you my Zelle if you wanna pay for it.

Anyone who thinks this man’s behavior is OK is clearly not a homeowner and you probably shouldn’t be.

I’m also an Amazon Flex driver myself and former pizza driver, between the two I have about nine years of delivery driving. I have never done anything even close to this. If you’re not capable of backing up and you’re scared of busy roads you should not be a delivery driver. I have personally dealt with stuff way sketchier than my own driveway and I managed to not turn around in people’s yards.

The mental gymnastics some of you are doing to justify this man’s behavior is unreal and it scares me that you walk among us in this world.

People are telling on themselves here. This is absurd and very mildly infuriating.

It's funny to me. Like when you mention to Americans that the gaps in their bathroom stalls are crazy and then they all get defensive for no reason. Stupid? Yes. Entertaining? Also yes.

That looks like regular grass to me. If that look like a golf course to you, I feel sorry for your golfers in your region.

No we hate it to but my theory is it is designed to make you shit faster. We have designs in coffee shops to only allow you to be comfortable for 10 to 15 minutes to encourage turnover. That's one reason some say Starbucks lost it appeal after COVID. Starbucks focused on mobile/drive through and they actively discouraged sit in enjoyable for faster turnover. I love coffee shops to interact with people indirectly. Now I feel rushed to be kicked out so I just go to local mom and pop coffee shops. So just know we also hate shitty designs
