Like if there’s a huge order going to what you clearly know is a single person living alone, how often (if at all) are you internally judging them?

Big orders for single people, especially for stuff like curry, pizza and chinese, could just mean they’re buying several meals at once and are going to freeze it for later on. Think of it as meal prepping without having to cook.
This is what I did when there was a double xl pizza special. The guy asked if it was for me, and I told him I’m getting 3 days of meals out of it. That’s when I was wondering if I was being judged.
Only time I ever did was when one guy brandished his gun at me because his pizza took a long time to get delivered
“Tell me you work in America without telling me you work in America”
I doordashed at the beginning of the pandemic for over a year. Only time I judged people was when they ordered a bunch of stuff at 2am. And even then, it wasn’t really judging, more just thinking “this dude is probably high as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
A little unrelated, but I used to live like a block away from a McDonald’s. Which fucking sucked when I was high late at night (they closed their lobby at 7, so “late” for this Christian-family-owned franchise that blasted Christian worship music literally all day every day was any time after then) and I couldn’t just walk my ass down and get some fuckin nuggets.
And fuck me, or any other pedestrian during the pandemic, because at one point they didn’t even have their lobby open, so you could only order through the drive-thru or the app, and fuck you if you don’t have a car but use the app
I door dashed for a bit between jobs. Never judged the customer unless they were exceptionally poor tippers. In my area, tip is only added on after service. One time it was pouring rain and this dude answered the door, told me how shitty it must be to deliver in that kind of weather, and then closed the door and no tip ever came through.
I will admit, sometimes I will forget to tip immediately and it might take a few days before I open the app and realize I didn’t tip. But it will come.
Ordering a lot for yourself doesn’t necessarily mean eating it all at once. Leftovers are good too.
That said, there was a time when I worked in a pizza place that sold by the slice. I had to predict what we’d sell 10 minutes in advance without creating too much waste or leaving customers waiting. Sometimes fat people would come in, order way too much, complain about needing to wait for more, and generally making my day worse. I realized I was starting to resent fat people and it was adding to my already miserable mental state working that shitty job. So whenever it came up I started playing baby elephant walk in my head, and I wasn’t so resentful anymore.
For deliveries, the only customers I judged were the ones who treated us like shit, lied to get free stuff, or who were terrible tippers despite clearly having the money.
I only judged people in a handful of cases
If you ordered fountain drinks instead of bottled sodas when we had both available, that’s kind of a dick move.
One lady once ordered a few cups of milk (in her defense, she did tell me when I delivered it that she was injured or her car was in the shop or something so it was an easy way for her to get milk without needing to go to the store. This was before grocery delivery really took off)
And I judged you if you gave a shitty tip or took too long to answer your door.
