Like if there's a huge order going to what you clearly know is a single person living alone, how often (if at all) are you internally judging them?

I had multiple people leave it at the door across from mine at an apartment I used to live at. Once, someone left food at my door, and knocked which is surprising where I live, when I hadn't ordered anything. That time it was for the person across from me, and they opened their door because they were waiting for a knock.

Other times, I had people just straight up leave the food at my door, no knock of any kind, and they wouldn't even mark it as delivered. I found out later after going looking for my food and seeing it cold on the floor.

Once, a driver actually stole my order. They picked it up because I saw them pull into the restaurant on the map, then a minute or so later cancelled the pickup. The next person who went to grab the order messaged me saying the restaurant told them someone picked it up already, but thankfully they were able to make another for me. I was pretty pissed that time.
