Tales & Trails of a Traveling Wiseguy

I haven't seen that kind of childish behavior around here, though one curiosity around here is that a lot of Doordash drivers (note I'm saying "Doordash" for simplicity; this includes all third-party delivery services) don't speak English— or Spanish. They communicate with cashiers by grunting and pointing at their phones where the order is displayed. This makes for an amusing, caveman-like pantomime when the driver has inaccurate expectations about what they'll be given.

For example, at a few quick-service restaurants I enjoy eating at, the only drink machines are in the dining room. When an order includes drinks, the drivers have to fill the drinks themselves. So many drivers either don't grasp this, or make a scene— with grunts and exaggerated gestures toward their phones— because they don't want to have to do extra work.
