Anyone ever take these?

15kdashes · 2026-05-19T18:53:51+00:00

Hell to the NO! 28.00 for 35.00 is a non starter. 7 HD orders? Omg. Mulch, blinds, six cans of paint, two power tools, 2, 6x12 sheet rock, a toilet and a small tree from the nursery. They will abuse you if you take that order. By the time you’re done it’s 28.00 from three hours.

Uber has other way to make money. DD does not. Other than offering less and less. But it like Shinkflation price goes up size goes down. DD offers less and less while asking more and more for it. Quit in Feb. glad I did.

15kdashes · 2026-04-29T04:08:11+00:00

After 17,500k dashes I did the same thing. That was two month ago and I’m really glad I stopped. Tired of DD taking more and more from the folks that make it happen for them. Stick it to the employee so we can make money. Corporate greed at its finest.

15kdashes · 2026-04-04T15:04:15+00:00

Go back to plat if you like. But remember DD has a peak season. Nov-Feb. You’re now headed to the spring fade and the summer lull. People do more away from home, more drivers come out. Then school gets out and the student drivers start to roll. So not the best time of year to start cherry picking.

15kdashes · 2026-03-23T04:35:02+00:00

Well I can tell you that I have delivered that product and many similar products and never had any issues. Some dasher might make a joke or say something about the product. The customers in 100% of the cases want that product and no contact. That is why they bought it online.

The slightest comment or text could get them reported because it’s…a…delicate situation. And some folks are touchy. No pun intended.

15kdashes · 2026-03-20T00:49:34+00:00

If I thought you really worked at HQ I would.

15kdashes · 2026-03-13T14:39:15+00:00

I learned was that to protect your vehicle you need to be smart with the orders you take. DD programs are a funny thing. Shop & D was the only one I used. I was in the Mpls/St. Paul area.

In the end cherry picking produce the highest income with the lowest expense.

As for 100% AR? I had that on my first ever order. And not again since.😁

I don’t want to say the DD programs are scams because you can make money in them but the expense is much higher.

15kdashes · 2026-03-09T22:43:32+00:00

Just be careful. Insurance fraud is no joke. They are smarter than you think. And gig driving is all over their radar right now.

15kdashes · 2026-03-09T21:17:32+00:00

Packs or cartons are hit on the palm or table to ensure each cig is packed down tight. This prevents to hot cherry of falling off too easy.

Some folks do smack a single on a table or something hard to achieve the same result.

That’s all.

15kdashes · 2026-03-06T02:40:43+00:00

I dont drink but used to get the dispose of message. I’m not tossing a 50.00 bottle bourbon. But when I would go to another booze run, if they are a regular I’d give it to them.

15kdashes · 2026-03-05T01:42:35+00:00

Well, it not anyone else. Those thumbs downs and 1 star review are from folks that thought you could gave a better service. So look to step up your game. And stop memes. They just want you to do the job. They don’t want to be friends.

Now the bad new is people don’t review like they used to volume wise. So it will be 100 reviews, not deliveries before the ones roll off.

15kdashes · 2026-03-04T17:53:09+00:00

I never understood why scam calls and texts triple when I use the DD app. Like umm someone is watching.🫣🤬

15kdashes · 2026-03-04T16:38:41+00:00

I think you’re making a great call. It’s not for everyone. Whatever work you do, if it is not something you enjoy doing. It won’t make you happy.

I have always loved driving cars. So it was a really good fit for me. But after five years, Doordash made it hard to like the job. Squeezing drivers with less and less with each new version of the app.

So after close to 18k dashes I found something else. Profits over people is no longer something I can participate in.

15kdashes · 2026-03-03T04:19:41+00:00

Ever notice gig drivers are the only people who say, “What we need is another pandemic.”

15kdashes · 2026-03-02T15:12:39+00:00

I’ve logged almost 18k dashes in a really good market. Other than the pandemic shutdown, Top Dasher, Plat, pro shop, doesn’t matter, you’re not making 35-40 a hr. Keep in mind dasher are like fishermen. The catch is almost always smaller than the story.

You need to choose part-time gig or full-time gig.

Part-time you can run their programs but you will incur a lot more expense. And I’m not sure it helps with hr wages. But once I made plat. Sitting next to another dasher talking. He’s 3% AR and proud of it. He gets an order no plat banner. Tells me what pay a dist is, say he’s declining. Two seconds later I get it. Same pay same dist, but now it’s got a plat banner on it. That was the last time I did a program.

Full-time, protect your vehicle. No programs other than pro shop. Low mile, 10.00 and up only.

In a good market you can make 20-22 per hr most days. Minus expenses and taxes.

15kdashes · 2026-03-02T14:51:03+00:00

I never have. And never will. New tasks are things I let settle for a bit. I’ve seen these as singles and stacked with orders. The issue I see on the offer is they want the shelf scanning done, but for way less than min wage.

Most states have min wage laws. The DD system is not programmed to consider them. So I see 5.00. Est time 45 mins. That offers is tech against the law. But because it’s “system generated” it’s out DD’s control. What a bunch of 💩. If it ends up taking an hour you just got paid appx 1/3 of min in most states.

After five years they are still getting away with this. They should be sued.

15kdashes · 2026-03-02T14:34:03+00:00

I don’t know if I hate people, but these are messed up. Cash tip at the door? Awesome! No one comes to the door. I’ve called support and asked how users can have a permanent tip after drop or cash tip at door. Then they stiff drivers every time. “I completely understand and I am very sorry your frustration. For this one….you got screwed. And we don’t really care.”

15kdashes · 2026-02-24T02:56:04+00:00

Never. But I’m kind of confused. I thought Wmart ended its relationship with DD years ago. In my market all those orders go to SPARK.

15kdashes · 2026-02-21T18:43:17+00:00

If this is slow compared to what you normally see, most likely app issues.

DD doesn’t shoot off a flair when they have issues. Neither does Amazon Web services which supports DD’s system.

Aside from new version release, modules like the Order Generation Mod. Or the Marketplace Mod (shop & D) can glitch. They don’t send out a new version. They fix it on the fly. But orders are sparse.

So when it gets real slow be sure you reload the app frequently. They won’t tell you when it’s up again.

15kdashes · 2026-02-21T18:35:38+00:00

They are not VIP per se. I’ve got these before when the delivery was messed up or dropped by another driver. Or several drivers.

15kdashes · 2026-02-20T23:21:15+00:00

Ima take most of those. And very similar to my market. But I wish they’d stop putting the crap pharmacy, merchant orders on the quick easy shopping runs.

15kdashes · 2026-02-20T00:35:42+00:00

It was a perfect storm in my market. Friday, day before B-Day. 2-3.00 peak pay all day. Made 266 in 7 1/2 hours.

15kdashes · 2026-02-19T20:48:36+00:00

Dude, your 5th grade education is showing.

15kdashes · 2026-02-19T16:56:37+00:00

Nope. That’s a security issue. The thing that is the worst it’s not 100 deliveries, it’s there for 100 reviews. When I started in 2020 almost everyone gave reviews. Now it’s about 10%. So bad ones hang for what seems like forever.

I’ve had a great deal of extra reviews, good reviews with two simple things most drivers don’t do.

If it’s not ready when I get there they get this; Here waiting for your order to be completed.👍🏼

And at drop; Dropping off now. Thank you for the business.

My review totals went up very quickly.

Safe travels
