If you want to avoid too much conversation with the delivery rider when receiving food, you can consider the following methods: 1. **Use the APP message function**: When placing an order, you can state in advance in the notes that you want to reduce communication, or simply tell the rider "Please leave the food at the door and I will pick it up myself." 2. **Choose contactless delivery**: Many food delivery platforms offer the option of contactless delivery. You can choose this method when placing an order. The rider will leave the food at the designated location and leave. 3. **Clear address information**: Make sure the delivery address you provide is accurate, which can reduce the need for the rider to communicate with you during the delivery process. 4. **Polite but firm**: If the rider initiates a conversation with you, you can respond politely, but use a brief answer to express your desire to reduce the conversation. 5. **Set a pick-up location**: If applicable, you can choose a pick-up location that is not easy to cause conversation, such as the door of your apartment, and let the rider leave the food at the door. In these ways, you can effectively reduce interaction with food delivery riders while also being polite and respectful.
