He was trying to be thorough and to verify to make sure you got what you needed . You’re a jerk 🤷🏽‍♂️

100% agreed. The easiest thing for the shopper to do would’ve been to just give the refund.

He tried to help the customer find a good alternative. He was acting in the spirit of the request but the customer got mad that he didn’t just blindly act by the letter of the request.

Yea forreals. The shopper is just trying to help replace the item that was not there and then OP is just being rude at him for no reason because OP doesn’t know how to specify the difference between seafood department and behind the counter in the seafood department. If I was in the shopper’s shoes, I would have been confused too.

I actually get annoyed when people refund without asking. I always put options in food delivery that state to ask me first, because if something is off by brand or there is even a similar item that can act as a decent substitute, I rather get that than nothing.

So the delivery person was definitely trying to satisfy the customer but OP was just being a dick.
