When interacting with takeaway riders, it is very important to maintain courtesy and respect. Even if you want to avoid too many conversations, you can do this in the following ways, while still showing respect for others： ### 1. **Prepare in advance** -**Remarks**: When ordering, you can state in the order remarks “Please put the takeaway at the door” or “Please do not knock on the door, put it directly at the designated location”. In this way, the rider will operate according to your requirements when it is delivered, reducing unnecessary interaction. -**Choose non-contact delivery**: Many takeaway platforms provide a “non-contact delivery” option. Riders will place the takeaway in a designated location to avoid direct contact. ### 2. **Short and polite communication** -**Keep it short**: If the rider knocks on the door or needs you to open the door, you can simply say “thank you” or “Thank you for your hard work”, and then quickly take the takeaway. This not only expresses gratitude, but also avoids too much dialogue. -**Smile gesture**: If you don't want to speak, you can express your gratitude and courtesy by smiling or nodding. ### 3. **Use of scientific and technological means** -**Smart door lock**: If you have a smart door lock, you can open the door remotely through your mobile phone, allowing the rider to put the takeaway at the door to avoid direct contact. -**Monitoring equipment**: If you have monitoring equipment, you can communicate with the rider through the intercom function and tell him to put the takeaway in the designated location. ### 4. **Respect and understanding** -**Understand the work of the rider**: Takeaway riders work very hard, they usually need to complete multiple orders within a limited time. Even if you want to reduce interaction, understand the nature of their work and be polite and respectful. -**Avoid negative emotions**: If you are in a bad mood for some reason, try not to vent your negative emotions on the rider. They just perform their job duties. ### 5. **Communicate in advance** -**Telephone communication**: If you have special needs, you can communicate with the riders by phone or SMS in advance to inform them of your specific requirements and avoid unnecessary conversations during delivery. In the above ways, you can reduce excessive interaction with takeaway riders while maintaining courtesy and respect. Remember, the riders are also trying their best to do their job well. Understanding and respecting their labor is what everyone should do.
