Are you people insane? You’re totally missing the point. So you think that if there’s an application written that facilitates placing an order with a deli, you wouldn’t expect it to detect that there was no one there to make the actual order?

And you’re okay with being able to place an order when the place is closed?

I explained why I chose Uber instead of calling. I’d like to add that there’re difficult to get through to on the phone. They used to have an order facility on their website, but they went with Uber because it’s no charge to either party if the customer picks it up.

I’m kinda surprised at your criticisms about me. Fine. I’m a moron. That doesn’t change the points I’ve made. Shrug. At least now I see why they get away with it. Freerepublic sure has changed.

Happy New Year.

On New Year's Day, esp. if not a national chain, I'd call to make sure they were open before placing the order.

Not to sound "woke" but this sounds like a 1st World Problem to me.

These dipsticks must be related to the manager at a restaurant that took a reservation (over the phone, not online) at 6:30pm on Christmas Eve. This despite the fact that they closed at 6pm on that day.

When the issue was brought to his attention at the restaurant entrance at 6:20PM that day, the manager swore up and down he called and left messages THREE TIMES about the problem.

When informed that was bull**** the manager got an attitude “Why you gotta talk to me that way?”

They probably wrote the wrong number down.

Lots of people out there who, for what they lack in talent, skill, or work ethic, make up for it with “self esteem” or “pride”.

Gotta save face when you’re a f*** up.
