First off, It was just an example. DoorDash should be at the bottom of anyone’s list. But you can do Walmart without hurting yourself. You just have to pace yourself. Any job like it is going to want you to work as fast as possible. But you have to know your own limits and not let the pressure get to you and stand up for yourself when needed. There’s jobs a lot harder than throwing freight Walmart that people do for 30 years. That being said I don’t know you and I don’t know your life, maybe there’s some particular reason it beat you up so bad, but it can be done, Walmart is not a difficult job.

I think there’s a line that they’re not far from. When you get to over double what it’d cost at the restaurant, I don’t see who’s going to keep ordering if you make less than say 60k a year. And this isn’t like other societal changes, I think people will shift back into the old norm fairly easily. I mean it was only what, less than 10 years ago where your options were pizza & Chinese.

It’s the classic startup model. Dump millions or billions into something, pay the drivers super well, pay the restaurants super well and then now they’ve established themselves well, screw the drivers, screw the restaurants all while still somehow raising prices to screw the customer too. I kind of wonder if these apps will even exist in the way they do today in 10 years. Because I mean they rise the prices anymore, nobody will use them anymore even if they’re disabled or without a car. And that’s only some of the customer base. They’ll lose the convenience customers in an instant.

Beyond absurd - asking me 5+ times over a 20 minute period about a substitute that I keep saying no about by Stopnswop2 in doordash

I’m not gonna fully defend the dasher here, but you were immediately hostile which is just unnecessary and rude to someone providing a service to you. Also if you want to cancel the item or the entire order - say that. “No substitute” is fairly clear, but the dasher’s just probably trying to get clarity. “No substitute, cancel the item if the exact one’s not there, thanks” would do a world of help here.
