The habits with which we order food have developed in some capacity since the cave days of, when our ancestors would hunt and drag carcasses back to cave. These days, friendly pink soldiers brave the wind and the rain to bring us fried chicken. We love riders for loving our appetites.
We spoke to a couple of foodora riders from around the world and girl, did they give us some gossip.
the samaritans (italy)
“We delivered 150 meals to a home for orphans, single mothers and senior citizens once. Five of us took a cab and when we explained to the driver what we were doing, he refused to charge us. What a guy!”
the dominatrix delivery (germany)
“The closest I ever came to participating in cosplay happened during a foodora shift. I still get nervous reliving the story! I arrived at the address in Berlin, Germany, with an order for a couple burgers, only to be greeted by a woman wearing full dominatrix attire. My first thought was that I wish I had the body confidence to greet strangers wearing such an outfit. Then I looked down the hall to see a leash trailing on the floor with a human crawling towards the door. The human was scantily clad in a dog costume and proceeded to grab the foodora bag from my hand, using its mouth, to which I obliged. The woman kindly smiled, gave me a tip and closed the door. I suppose cosplayers like good food too.”
prison (germany)
“As an Orange is the New Black fan, delivering foodora to a prison guard was basically the best thing that’s ever happened to me. They actually made me pass through magnetic safety doors and down some corridors before reaching the guard who had actually ordered. Apparently, prison guards like chicken nuggets, but who doesn’t.”
the secret mansion (germany)
“You know when you get home envy? Like, when you visit a house and feel like you’ve made a strong, personal connection with it? That’s how I felt when I happened to stumble across a mansion that was hidden behind a pretty grimy garage door. I literally wept with envy when I crossed the garden to the front door.”
