Respondents’ ages ranged from 18 - 77, with a median age of 31. Additionally, from May 9 - 11, 2019, we surveyed 497 American adults who identified as having worked as a deliverer for at least one food delivery app. Respondents’ ages ranged from 21 - 63, with a median age of 30.

I’ve only used Waitr
Most of them seem to keep the order in the big bag that keeps it warm in their trunk or back seat

What does the other 72% of their bodies do while the 28% eats the food?

I like how they complain about the tip being weak. The few times I've used Waitr, I placed an order and it showed up to my door two hours later. No thanks. They're lucky they get any tip at all. So the food is cold and soggy, and costs 25% more to have somebody deliver it to you. Better off just going to pick it up myself.

I'd guess less than half would be honest about something like that. So closer to 60%. Which is scary.

You're probably right, I delivered pizza in high school and half the drivers ate toppings off the pizzas they delivered.

It isn't always the driver's fault. The restaurant notifies them how long the order will take and when it is ready. You've also got restaurants picking the longest wait right now just to spite Waitr. As far as them eating, they did have a few get caught on home cameras walking up to the door eating on the food. I am glad we use sealed bags at work.
