Former Domino's delivery driver shares the rudest instruction she ever received

Domino's Pizza delivery drivers are heroes when it comes to bringing food to you when you aren't able to pick it up yourself.

When you order from Domino's online, you're able to add in delivery instructions to make it easier for the person brining your pizza – but some people write all sorts of strange things in there.

One former Domino's Pizza delivery driver called Holly Laing has shared some of the weirdest instructions she received while she was working for the fast food restaurant chain.

In a video uploaded to her TikTok account @lowkeyhollylaing, the content creator explained: "As a Domino's delivery driver you get the delivery instructions on a little slip so that when you go to deliver the pizza, if the customer has given any instructions, then you can see that on the slip."

She continued: "I'm going to show you some of the weirdest and craziest delivery instructions that I got [when] working there."

Holly showed the first delivery slip, where is said "Shout over side gate," instead of knocking on their front door. The 23-year-old added that she "did not do that.

The order she got straight after that one was also strange, and it said: "I'll be out the front of the school in a red hoodie."

Holly added: "How weird does that sound? He actually was. I had to deliver to a school gate and he was literally standing there waiting in a red hoodie."

Another one of the weird, and slightly rude, requests she got was "knock and go".

Holly said: "I'm sorry, how rude is that? Knock and go. They obviously didn't want me waiting at the door but in Covid times you had to wait for them to answer the door, you couldn't just leave it in their porch. I don't think you can even do that now. So I couldn't knock and go unfortunately for them."

Showing off her last example, Holly said: "I'm sorry what? This delivery instruction was for me to say Happy Birthday to someone."

The message read: "Say belated Happy Birthday to Mrs [surname] from Nick."

The video has now been seen by more than 383k people, and has received hundreds of comments from amused TikTok users.

One person said: "Omg 'shout over side gate' how are people confident enough to ask a stranger to do that."

Another said: "After seeing this I'm cringing at the fact I once [asked] a delivery driver to say my football team [is] the best so I could film them saying it. oh god."

A third added: "I worked there a few years ago, I have a few weird ones too. Someone put their name down as 'Hugh Jorgasm'."
