How excited the idea of 30-minute delivery or free pizza is? Ever found yourself wishing that the delivery partner gets late? SMH!
Well, no one would mind having a free pizza but we never put a thought on finding out HOW would we get this free pizza? Where the cost is actually being cut from? Let’s find out!
Bengaluru Police Commissioner Tweets To Seize The Concept Of 30-Minute Delivery!
Every time we get a free pizza for late delivery, the food company cuts the same amount from the delivery person’s total payment. Most of us have been unaware of the fact but it’s not only rude but fails to make any sense.
Concerned with the same, this Bengaluru cop stepped forward and tweeted a post highlighting how these delivery men risk their lives in order to reach the place on time. He also requested the eateries to extend the delivery time to 40 minutes instead of 30 minutes.
Do we have the heart to get a free pizza from a kid who is risking his life just because he crossed over 30 mns. Am seriously considering asking Pizza companies to make it 40 mns as these kids risk their lives by breaking all Traffic rules.

Amazingly, most of the people were observed to agree with the concept that the cop presented.
It's a stupid concept, particularly in a service industry that penalises its staff for reasons beyond their control. The pressure it puts on the delivery mechanism as well as unrealistic expectations from customer end, motivated by a consumerist freeloader culture, is ridiculous!

The post received admirable 6.3K retweets and 24.9K likes. The fact that most of the Twitter users saw the situation eye-to-eye and pleaded change was pleasurable.

If one is in hurry and the hunger cannot await, picking the order yourself sounds great!
Not just their lives,but lives of other drivers/pedestrians as well. If someone can wait for pizza for 30 mins, an adtnl 15 min must not make much diff. Pls recommend 45 mins. If the customers have a problem with that, they can drive themselves to the store pick up their pizza

Something is better than nothing…
Thank god someone said it. The delivery boys apologise so profusely for getting late, one can see the pressure on them.
Late pizza for us is better than no roti for their families.— Rahul Swami (@swamiiii) January 21, 2020
Delivery partners are boon to our society and we shall all appreciate them for making an effort and bringing us food!
Dear Sir, I really do not want to eat that free pizza by risking someone's valuable life. The delivery boys are in great stress because of the timelines. Everything can wait and really admire your statement sir

It is free to be kind. Then, why not be? We should all be treating the boys with respect and affection.
