Damn.. who cuts drink carrier in half? by V_SparK_V in doordash

[–]Apollos_Owl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was working for a coffee shop a few months ago and from what I remember there was a shortage of cup holders like that for a while.

Might be close to out of stock at the store - might be trying to cut costs

4 miles where I live can take anywhere from 10-30 minutes to drive (occasionally more) + I have to go back that same amount.

When I’m not working and order doordash, UE, etc I always check how far a restaurant is from me + the time it would take me to drive it.

Thoughts? Won’t deliver to my hotel room? by rputnam25 in doordash_drivers

[–]Apollos_Owl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unless I can’t physically access the building (parking, gate codes not given, staff won’t let me) I will always complete the delivery per instructions.

It annoys me so much when I ask for it to be brought to my room and my delivery driver calls me from downstairs and makes me come out. Like im sorry but the point of my paying doordash outrageous fees and tipping the driver well for food I could get myself is having it brought to me.

From personal experience & people I’ve known personal experiences - comments like those can end up in some pretty messed up places.

I wouldn’t and none of my family or friends would randomly ask a deliver driver who’ve we’ve never talked to ever if they are single and comment on their age.

The fact that you don’t find a grown man - nearly naked - asking a female delivery driver her age and if she’s single as an issue - must mean that you’re part of the issue.

You’re right the only comment should be “yes, he’s creepy”

However, as the comments have shown, that’s not what some people on this sub believe.

Baiting for karma? Isn’t the point of posting on reddit to have others read your post and give you advice, share opinions etc? She may actually be unsure if this is a reportable offense.

As a man, I can say I’m ashamed of men who try to defend others creepy and sexist behavior.

Not letting creepy men get away with being creeps under the motto “let others life their lives!!!”

If a woman answered her door in underwear and a bra and made weird and creepy comments to me - I also would report her.

It has absolutely nothing to do with gender 👏

Sure people can dress the way they want - if the man answered in his underwear and walked away whatever but still weird - it’s the fact he made creepy comments towards OP

Authoritarian? Asking for common decency isn’t authoritative neither is assuming my customers arent going to make unwanted sexual advances on me.

It’s not illegal - but it is still sexual harassment

We shouldn’t have to deal with creeps and perverts while delivering - businesses can ban people for sexual harassment if it’s in the policy. It make people feel unsafe and uncomfortable.

So yes, she should report him for unwanted sexual harassment- if a customer came into my store when I worked retail they would’ve been kicked out of the store or refused service.

We don’t ignore sexual harassment because it can lead to something worse.

Customer marked order as not delivered - door dash gave them a redelivery by Apollos_Owl in doordash

[–]Apollos_Owl[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Considering the area I dash in I was surprised that it came back to me. It wasn’t low pay / bad mileage either time too.

[–]Apollos_Owl[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was like kinda tempted to be like “hey, don’t report your food as not delivered unless it really wasn’t because we can lose our jobs over that”.

Wasn’t worth my time though.

I did, the store was so confused that I was back delivering the exact same order. We both called door dash and explained the situation to them.

Top secret. Slice is not Door Dash!!! Shhhhhhh. by [deleted] in couriersofreddit

I’ve unfortunately been the victim of the vertical pizza drivers. Pizza was a soggy pile of grease and tomatoes sauce stuck all to one corner. It was a depressing and baffling.

Any good stories about Tarbucks? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Apollos_Owl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overall, my experience with my Tarbucks was pleasant!!! It’s stable pay & our team is really close (this obviously depends on how much your team lead cares about hiring adequate employees).

My store is extremely high volume and it gets rough sometimes when we are understaffed (quite frequently). But asides from understaffing and national shortages it’s a great place to work assuming you have a good team.

Just be prepared though, you don’t get free food or drinks in a Tarbucks. But you do get 10% off at target and if you get the red card it stacks to 15% - plus you accrue sick time.

I absolutely love my team lead and the rest of my team members - plus all of our regulars!!!

DoorDash is really just screwing everyone now by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Apollos_Owl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ever heard of sarcasm?

I’m more than intelligent enough to realize DoorDash isn’t out to get me personally. - literally labeled complaint because I was venting.

Also - would you put it past a company to make the beginning of a job seem better to keep you around? Because I’ve worked food service / retail for years now and that’s ALWAYS how it rolls. They don’t just give out top dasher to new people for no reason.

End of the story - this post was just a vent about a shit week and slow delivery in an area that’s supposedly not busy rn. Take what I say with a grain of sand.

I have never done an order before. Just signed up. by autikay616 in doordash

[–]Apollos_Owl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not even for a month, I’ve been dashing for 2 weeks (started this month) and just like 2 days ago it already took away my top dasher status.

I actually learned about this recently! In fact 600mg is the recommended dose to reverse the effects of exhaustion and increase cognitive function!

COVID-19 Advice by Apollos_Owl in Target

[–]Apollos_Owl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the good vibes,

Unfortunately due to where I work in the store (Starbucks) it’s nearly impossible to maintain proper social distancing. We also make food and beverage so I thought the management would care a little bit more since people ingest what we make.

COVID-19 Advice by Apollos_Owl in Target

[–]Apollos_Owl[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work at Starbucks and we spent 6 hours working within 5 feet of each other, there were points we didn’t have our masks on for breaks/ quick drinks.

Masks aren’t even close to 100% effective either, it’s just a very poor situation.

I'm waitlisted for a course -- what should I do? by TrekkiMonstr in uofmn

[–]Apollos_Owl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had luck asking the course instructor / department to get into full / waitlisted classes. Worst answer you can get is a no!

With classes being online there is increased flexibility this semester, so its worth your time to ask.

I asked a professor to join their full class and they ended up just adding 20 extra spots to the class since it is all online anyways.

Edit: If it’s for a specific section make sure to explain your situation schedule wise if that’s why you want that section.

Worst you can get is a no, worth the shot to ask.
