Why do people order food from a Glatt Kosher restaurant and demand that it be delivered by 7:00 PM on Motzo'ei Shabbat when Shabbat ends about 5:40?
Don't "Shomer Shabbat" people understand that it takes time for:
• The Mashgi'ach to get to the restaurant,
• The Mashgi'ach to light all the fires,
• The cooks to cook,
and
• the Deliverer to deliver!
If they're sincerely ordering Glatt Kosher food, why squeeze Shabbat?
Can't they wait to eat a few more minutes out of respect for Shabbat, and so that others don't have to rush, sometimes in traffic?
I find this a distasteful practice when ordering good food. Give it time to get it right and exercise some deferred gratification.
