Can you deliver the food or delivery bag to the 20th floor by using staircase ?

I wonder, No…

Just coz they need this job. It doesn’t mean, you will take the benefit out of it.

They are Humans too.

And lifts cost if usage can be easily manageable, if any society wants to.

The one those who have posted this notice should also post another notice which states that people ordering food from Zomato/Swiggy should come to collect their staff from the ground floor of the apartment.Otherwise it will be very unfair towards the Zomato/Swiggy people

service lifts in most buildings are used for moving garbage or heavy material like tiles, construction machinery etc. Mostly they are filthy. If dogs of residents can travel by the main lifts why the discrimination against workers? This is pure class divide nothing else.

बल्कि सभी डिलीवरी कम्पनियों को नियम लागू कर देना चाहिए कि कोई भी डिलीवरी बॉय ग्राउंड फ्लोर के अलावा किसी अन्य फ्लोर पर डिलीवरी करने नहीं जाएगा। यदि ग्राहक अपने फ्लोर पर डिलीवरी चाहे तो वह अतिरिक्त भुगतान करे और यह राशि डिलीवरी बॉय को दी जाए। @SwiggyCares @zomato @amazon

Some people argued that, usually, high-rises have a separate service lift that is used by cleaners and delivery agents. However, stating that such segregations were also discriminatory, a Twitter user wrote: “Service lifts in most buildings are used for moving garbage or heavy material like tiles, construction machinery etc. Mostly they are filthy.
