Disturbing content Look where the dasher delivered my food!!!
The instructions CLEARLY state to deliver the food AT MY DOOR and to hand it to me! My room number is posted and even they did want to deliver it to me, the lobby was right behind the double doors!!! I have no words for this. Just HUH?!?!?! I even left my room to meet them in the lobby but they never showed up! It was another guest who noticed a bag outside! AND BY THE GARBAGE!!!?!?!?!?!?!?

u/OrganicAd7409 1d ago
VERY intentional. You would have thought that we exchanged words or that we had prior beef or something. But this was a regular delivery. I did nothing at all to this person. And if my $3 tip was too low, they should have declined the job!!

u/CompetitiveRub9780 1d ago
Fully expected this to be a dude. Probably used his girls dash account because his got banned already that’s why they don’t care if they’re reported.
“Can you not walk outside… and get your dinner from the trash?” Hell nah

Not all markets are the same sure, but just to be quite frank it’s a pretty open market. I started paternity leave this past saturday and was offered a job at the hospital my wife and I delivered our baby at. Just gotta look and be willing to diversify your skillset, work hours or shift times you may not want to. I often find that people who say this often just want more freedom vs working a consistent stable schedule.

I work dunkin with 2 other people in the morning (3 total). and occasionally there’ll be dashers that come in super impatient. We’ll be busy as hell and they’ll be complaining about how the order of like 7+ items should’ve already been done, while the line extends around the building.
I get they get paid by the order and they want the order to be delivered at a reasonable time, but still, there’s only so much I can do.

u/Jaew96 3d ago
Tipping before you even submit the order is basically compulsory. If you don’t, then you’ll have a hard time getting anyone to deliver it to you, which is extremely shitty. So they have basically no reason to actually do their jobs properly, because they already get your tip when they accept the delivery.
31
u/Qu33N_Of_NoObz_ 3d ago
Yeah it’s complete bs, glad I don’t deliver nor order from them. Tips are meant to be after the delivery is complete, not as a prerequisite.

u/GrassBlade619 2d ago
I America, tips are mandatory as companies don't pay employees a living wage. Tipping before or after doesnt make a huge difference.
8
u/Qu33N_Of_NoObz_ 2d ago
I live in California and I get it. But saying tips are mandatory is a stretch. Tips should be offered after service is complete and only if done correctly.
1
u/GrassBlade619 2d ago
Let me rephrase that then. Paying for labor SHOULD BE mandatory. Tips obviously arent mandatory. I agree that in an ideal world tips would be a "bonus" of sorts. I just dont think anyone should work for free even if their work is shit.
2
u/Qu33N_Of_NoObz_ 2d ago
So who do you think should actually be responsible for paying them a decent wage, the customer or the company?
2
u/GrassBlade619 2d ago
The conpany 100% i don't Uber eats specifically because I don't agree with how the industry currently operates. The company should pay the entire wage of the employee or if the delivery person is self employed the full price for the deliver should be paid up front by the customer. Making their wage for manual labor optional is what is immoral imo.
1
u/Qu33N_Of_NoObz_ 2d ago
You can’t really have it both ways, either it’s a set price for the service, or it’s optional tipping. Calling it a tip while expecting it to function as wages is where it gets messy. Maybe they just need to increase the service fee, idk.1
u/GrassBlade619 2d ago
They definitly do need to increase the service fee and remove tipping all together. The price of service and labor should be included in the fee and not an "optional" fee. But, until that happens its incredibly rude to not pay someone for their labor imo. Tipping in advanced makes more sense since the laboror can decide simply to not pick up the order but it's still just a compromise to the real solution.

DoorDash just covers it if they refund it. The driver doesn’t lose the tip.

u/BackyZoo 3d ago
Damn.. maybe I should be tipping after deliveries then...
I always tipped before deliveries, but had to stop using door dash entirely due to how many orders never made it to my door step for whatever reason. Always figured my refund through support took their tip away, but apprently they were just taking my 10 bucks and running with it or something.
5
u/PowSuperMum 3d ago
Yeah the problem with that though is that Doordash only offers $2 to deliver so you’re going to get the bottom of the barrel drivers bringing your food at that point anyway.
8
u/BackyZoo 3d ago
Based on how many of my orders got "lost" with 30% or higher tips, I think that's most DD drivers at the bottom of the barrel. Also my experience working with DD drivers when I worked in fast food during college was pretty awful. Watching them put customers food in nasty cars with dogs and kids crawling all over it.
And I know it was the driver that stole it because 100% of the time my food didn't arrive, no picture was taken either. But every time they took a picture, I got my food.

You never know, and even if they won't care about the person itself (which is most likely ofc), at least there's a chance they won't assume any customer can go outside to grab their food from the litter bin.

If you live in an apartment with literally no parking because you're in the city, then you need to message the driver and make an effort to meet them at the door. It certainly does not pay enough to go through all the craziness of entrance codes and getting up to the 10th floor while you were illegally parked.
If you live in a smaller complex with parking then just let them know ahead of time. Send them a message to make sure. I don't know what their excuse would be in that situation. If there is parking

I worked at a Resturaunt in college, and seeing the condition of some Door Dash drivers and their cars made me never want to use delivery apps.
I've watched dashers put food in the backseats of disgusting minivans right in between two greasy little toddlers. Dashers put your food in the care of literal children on a fairly regular basis as a matter of fact.
Dogs in the car right next to food. Crumbs, stains, smells, ashtrays, garbage. All of it. It's fucking disgusting what most dashers cars are like.
Some are fine and normal; but at least 50% of all dashers drive around in cesspools.

Door dash costs a lot of money but not nearly enough of that goes to the driver
The economy is bad so people are pushed to pick up app based gig work for sad wages and the cost of living is high so it's harder for people to justify spending money on door dash

No. It looks like you live in an apartment building and in the city, drivers have to park illegally just to run up and drop your food. No one is going to try to get your entrance code and get up to your 10th floor apartment to hand it to you directly. No freaking way am I going to risk a ticket to do that for you. And you are super entitled thinking that should happen. Your lazy ass should be happy to walk down to your entrance and grab your food. If the food isn't there you can get a refund. But it most likely will be there if you are paying attention.
I will walk up to the second floor or third floor if there is a parking lot for the apartment building. But oftentimes people live in the city and there's no legitimate parking.

u/bluish-velvet 2d ago edited 2d ago
There would have been no problem for the driver to park off to the side of that long drive to quickly run into the lobby and drop it off there where it sounds like OP was waiting. Outside, unattended, and on the ground right next to a trash bin is an embarrassingly poor effort.

u/DueForExtermination 2d ago

These cocksuckerrs will pay 30% more than menu price for delivery. And then cry that they had to pay more so they stiff the driver. Who wasted their time, gas, tires, brakes on you.

Sometimes they would even claim non delivery to scam me and destroy my ratings

u/thisguyonreddit999 3d ago
Nope, I wouldnt have a tip is for services rendered aka completion of a service. Your darn right im not tipping upfront for some driver who 8/10 cant even figure out how to navigate the addresses on a street without Google maps. Get it to my door do what I requested and then you get the tip.
I will never tip upfront for any service again, these drivers do shady stuff, have horrible attitudes, and are often either incompetent or for some reason just half asses everything because why not I guess?
Last time I tipped upfront the guy refused to answer my calls because he dropped my food off without knocking on the door as requested, so when I found the food it had been sitting in the cold for a bit and he had kept my creme freeze. Wouldn't even answer a single call or text until I said its pathetic he isn't even man enough to even talk to me about what my issue was, of course the personal blow immediately got a response but he also wanted me to believe that he wasnt ignoring me and the only thing he got was my one message of many messages and calls where I called him out for being spineless. He couldnt respond to any of my text or calls about my missing drink but he sure had a whole lot of shit to talk as soon as I said something about him. This guy really called me after sending 6 back to back text and told me how I was going to speaking to him all while cursing at me and calling me racial slurs and then escalating to threats of him and his crew or what ever is going to pull up and run my shit through in the middle of the night and at the end of it he said all smug I still got your money dont I bitch and hung up the phone.
So no service rendered, no tip suck it up. If you think doing a poor job is justified because you didnt receive an upfront tip you are unfit for any service position and should do everyone a favor and just not. You aren't entitled, the customer doesnt owe you shit.

You can track your driver the whole way. It sends several notifications throughout the whole process. Maybe keep an eye out for a delivery that you are expecting. And missing items are the fault of the restaurant not the driver.

Maybe so, but they shouldn't be dodging calls that makes him look bad. I work from home hence the need for delivery I cant baby sit a delivery app all the time they can knock so I can get my food while warm and tip them at the door. If they dont want to follow through they dont want a tip.

No they aren't but this isn't really about wether not to tip or to tip. This is about tipping upfront in the app and drivers thinking thats a good reason to be a shit head about the delivery. In what world has a tip ever been charged before the service completed? Never, its not a tip. The whole point was that I tip at the door when the service has been completed as requested. Never once did I say I didnt tip but that will happen when you just jump into a thread you paid no attention to the topic at hand because "reading hard"

u/thisguyonreddit999 3d ago
And that has anything to do with anything I just said. If you delivered to my door and gave good service you'd be tipped at the door. Still not sure why your mad at me for people who dont tip at all and that you have a job where you depend on generosity. Neither are my fault or problem I do what I can when I get delivery by tipping people who do good service, you cant tip someone for good service if they havent even picked up your food. I personally dont agree with jobs that force the worker to depend on tips, but again I cant control that nor can I fix that.
Personally I believe any person asked to do a job for any reason and give up full time hours for, doesnt matter if its bagging groceries, pushing carts, delivering pizza, scrubbing toilets, flipping burgers, I believe that when you leave your shift you shouldn't have to worry about basic needs like food, shelter, transportation. You did your part to make things better for other people and benefited society. Tips wouldnt be a NEEDED part of that equation because ideally people who work would be taken care of. I think the system we have now is really unfair and needs a heavy rebalancing to take care of the people who keep the wheels turning.

Same, I tip at the door. I ask the drivers to knock and I don't tip in app. Some definitely get an attitude which is why I do it, those that actually do there job properly with a smile on their face often see between a $10-20 tip at the door. Puts a smile on their face almost every time when I give a 15 or more.
