    I always know when you go into rough 'hold on to your handbag' neighbourhoods, when all the fast food shop staff are behind a glass screen with a food hatch!! 😂🤣🤣😂

      Haha, you've got a keen eye for recognizing those neighborhood indicators! Fast food shops with staff behind a glass screen and food hatch are often found in areas where security measures are in place due to local safety concerns. It's all part of the experience in some neighborhoods, and it's interesting to see the different aspects of city life. Thanks for sharing your observations and adding a touch of humor to it! 😂🍔🌭🍟🏙️

    Bro that was a rough last delivery. Glad you saw the comedy of it later on but wow. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for showing us a different side of Chicago. Reminds me of a few areas near me in New Orleans. Although, I don't know if I've ever seen a revolving door at a food place for handing out the food ha! You are the man Eddie, keep it up bro.

    • @EddieBenitez3

  • @khanrides
    @khanrides Год назад +5

    I think you should’ve contacted support and canceled that last order. Customers like that are the ones that get you banned on delivery apps. Canceling the order via support would’ve made sure these scumbags didn’t get any food or any chance to falsely report you because of their own incompetence.

    • @EddieBenitez3

    A friend of mine used to deliver pizza for years he'd give free pizza to the kid's in the hood. He got robbed so many times they'd take All of his pizzas. It was a truck with racks a kinda little pizza truck

    • @EddieBenitez3
      @EddieBenitez3  4 месяца назад

      That sounds rough! Your friend must have some interesting stories from his delivery days. Too bad RUclips wasn’t around that would probably be a great channel!!!! It's great that he was so generous with the kids in the neighborhood, but it's a shame he had to deal with so many robberies. Delivering food can definitely come with its challenges.

    I have been really loving your scooter vids. One thing that really bothers me is the manhole covers. Avoid them like the plague as an early rider to build the habit. Dry, they may be no problem, wet… it’s best just to always avoid as muscle memory.

    Have you added motorcycle to your uber eats account so maybe they can give you more request?
    The last delivery if no one came for the food would you have taken it home or given it to some one?
