1. I have to leave a tip before the order starts and if the driver is 30 minutes late I have to contact customer support to get my tip back. 2. I’m paying almost triple what the actual meal costs if I were to drive there myself. 3. Drivers often do other orders on the way, delaying my order and causing my food to be cold by the time I receive it. So I just paid $38.69 for a meal that costs $13.99 in the restaurant, the driver made another delivery on the other side of town before delivering my order, and when I got the food it was room temperature and soggy. Imagine paying extra for a worse product in literally any other industry. Uber Eats is also terrible, but at least they give you the option to order “priority” (no stops on the way to you). @DoorDash
So don’t order from there broke 🍌 boy
You’re saying broke boy but I’m literally okay with paying extra. My gripe is paying extra for worse quality. Do they not include reading comprehension as a metric in Microsoft interviews?
Reread your own point 2 It’s not a metric here but it should be at Amazon, can’t even read your own post 🍌 boy
What was all the extra costs?
They’re bullshitting. I guarantee 100% that they did not pay $25 in fees, or anywhere even close to that lmao.
The price of the food is also more expensive before the fees are even added on. How detached can you be from the product of the company you work for?
You always need to figure out if resturant is adding 15%+ surcharges to menu. If yes, its better to get it yourself. But ofcourse getting deliveries from Sanjose downtown to MountainView is worth it via apps.
If you’re going to complain about tipping you shouldn’t dine out. Even take out. If you can’t afford tipping then make your own food and save somebody else the time they put into serving/delivering your food. And complaining about not being the only delivery on a person’s route causing your food to get cold is ludicrous. Do you expect them to deliver just to you, taking probably an hour of their time, solely for a 20% tip? If you even tip right which I’m guessing you don’t….
I tip well. Your point is moot.
So then, let’s say you tip $3-5, you think that’s enough to solely occupy an hour of someone’s time? They only way deliverers can make a decent amount of money is by taking multiple orders simultaneously. It’s definitely faster and cheaper to go get the food yourself, however you’re sacrificing those points for the convenience of not having to make the trip. Since you can tip up front, how about you try tipping $20? I bet you’ll get your food a hell of a lot quicker.
I don’t get it. Use UberEats then.
then dont use it lol
Nice one.
Doordash is Peloton v2
Yeah , sorry I doubt the pricing you mentioned Give an example please. (Also just add free dashpass from one of your credit cards …)
There is 0 chance they paid $25 extra on DD lmao
There are some combinations that would Like a McDonald’s single meal for example with no dashpass prob vs going in store / drive through But you really have to try…
What sucks about doordash is that you pay so much extra for the "convenience" but the service is slow and when your food shows up cold the outcome is actually worse than if you just got it yourself. What is convenient about that?
The fact that you don’t get it yourself.
You want the driver to also give you a bj? First world problems...
You’re paying extra for the labor of driving the delivery. It’s obviously much cheaper for you to pick it up yourself.
How come I can always drive to the place and get the food myself, and drive back home and the food is still fresh and hot - but if I order DoorDash or Uber Eats they take ten times longer and they hand me a cold soggy meal? I don’t get it. Why can’t I just pay for someone to go get my food for me, why must I also receive inferior quality food?
He has a point. What you are referring as labor would be appropriate if he is serving him only, instead he is making 4 another delivery in conjunction with his, so paying twice extra for the meal is extortion not paying for labor.
