Why, where else would they take the food? Leave in at the patio? Drop it on the lawn?

About half the time I order UberEats I get a call from the driver that they're here and to come downstairs because they won't enter my apartment building. Could be laziness, it could also be because the street parking is always full and so the only place to park close by is a fire hydrant.

The app has different options for meeting in the lobby / come to my unit and I always select my unit, but whatever, I get why they might not do that.

Leaving it on the porch, on the street closest to their car, with the front lobby in an apartment building...

There's quite a lot of places people will think to leave food if they're rushing to pick up another job.

Some people live in multi-tenant buildings where "your door" is not the buildings entrance.

In (other country) they do bring it to your door, even if it's the 6th floor of an apartment building
