Road with a guy to visit a friend in a gated community. We didn't know the access code for the gate but the guy I was with is an Amazon delivery driver.

"Let's see if I can't get us in," he said. He got out of the car, walked over to the access panel and looked on top, bottom and sides. Then he punched in some numbers and the gate opened.

Turns out, so many people in gated communities and apartment complexes order things from Amazon, and other delivery services, and want front door delivery but don't give them any way to get in. Eventually, some frustrated driver who gets the code will write it on the side of the access panel to help everyone out.

"Apartments are awful," he said. "College campuses are the bane of our existence. You would think that college kids would be smart about these things but they are the absolute worst."
