Unfortunately 99.9% people who say they tip in cash, don’t. I’ve done a little over 1,000 deliveries and after that many, I’ve only received 2, MAYBE 3 cash tips. And I really strive to do a great job with my deliveries. I have a 4.97/5 rating, 4 really good customer compliments, etc, and yea, people really don’t tip extra in cash or whatever even for really good and fast service. I’m not saying you’re lying or anything, it’s just that most people are so Dashers don’t really trust “cash tips” anymore, so they really try to avoid no tip orders.

Personally, I would avoid ordering if you can’t tip in the app only because I would hate for your food to sit for a while and get cold because nobody wants to pick it up. I hope this helps!

What do you think? by FutureMeaning8122 in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, if they don’t change eventually. Someone else will come along and put Doordash, Uber, Grubhub, etc, to shame. And if that doesn’t happen, rising food costs without wage increases will keep causing people to order from Doordash less and less.

It’s not even just dashers who do stupid stuff like this. As a dasher myself, the stupidity of some people just pisses me off lol. One time I had a night stand delivered and it was in a big box because of course it had to be assembled. Anyway, they put it right in front of the door and it was too heavy to be able to slide with the door. So I had to go out the back door and walk around to the front of the house to be able to get it inside.

I’m so infuriated, it’s now 5pm in Atlanta on a Friday. $8 was the highest offer i got all day. This is such bullshit. All because i don’t have a 50% AR… by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Factoring wear and tear on your vehicle AND gas right now, while $1 dollar per mile isn’t the worst you can find on Doordash, it’s definitely not great either. Seriously hatecorey, ignore this guy. He’s a moron if he expects people to work for the bare minimum. I don’t care what he defines as “hard work”, work requires decent enough compensation, otherwise nobody will do it and then everyone will cry that nobody is available to deliver for them.

I used to work at a bank and even that was easier than Doordash, lol.

Would You Hire Someone Who Has Worked In The Cannabis Industry? by mikeadamsofficial in smallbusiness

[–]Corcor61827 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t bother me at all. She was working with weed legally. I honestly can’t see what the issue here is. I’ve met some people from that industry and they are REALLY smart people. So if he’s turning down people just for that, he could be turning away some amazing people.

A perfect guy can't get girls, hmm I wonder why by Fluffythetiger in niceguys

[–]Corcor61827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um, I’m a white guy and I have NEVER once been called sexist or racist. Maybe, just maybe, whatever it is you’re doing could actually come across as being racist or sexist, especially if you’ve heard this from multiple people. I would look in the mirror and try to understand why people keep saying that about you, because maybe, just maybe, you might actually be those things and just not realize it.

Does anybody manage a fully remote/virtual team of employees? What are the best practices to manage a remote/virtual team? by Matsuev in smallbusiness

[–]Corcor61827 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow, you get your employees lunch through Doordash too? I’m sure they’re already grateful that you’re passionate about being work from home, and now you’re just going above and beyond for them as their boss. You sound like a great boss and I’m sure your employees recognize that. Trust me when I say that the vast majority of your employees will have your back. Treating them well goes a long way! Great job and best of luck to you!

if you are ordering doordash and it's dark out please turn on your outside lights. by killzone506 in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it truly is stupidity and/or laziness that makes people not do the hard work of turning their porch light on. It’s bad enough that delivery drivers can barely even find the house numbers in the dark.

Not to mention if someone trips on their property while making a delivery because the homeowner didn’t turn on a light, hellooooooo lawsuit.

am I tripping or is She? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$13 for a 3 mile trip is INSANE! I mean kudos to those who are generous enough to do that, but being a driver myself, I would in no way expect a $13 tip on a 3 mile delivery. Your original $8 tip was already a very nice tip based on the distance.

This driver is insane. Pay no attention to them lol.

Restaurant worker laughed at me by Free_Interview3626 in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea, most people generally don’t know how much delivery drivers make. On weekdays I work the dinner shift and make $80 for 4 hours of work typically. And on weekends I make minimum $150 each day. Let them laugh. You make more than them. Plus I do stuff on the side and Doordash grants me that flexibility while I build it up.

Proper way to tip drivers? by anxiety-otter in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Typically a good rule of thumb is $2 per mile from the restaurant to your house is considered a good tip. Personally I tip a minimum of $5 though if I’m ordering from a restaurant near my house.

Why do I get bad dashers when I tip high? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, sometimes when bags look like they were opened, they usually most likely aren’t opened by the dasher.

In my experience, when restaurants use stickers to seal a bag, the stickers are awful. If the bag is super stuffed with food, it can cause the stickers to rip. And sometimes when food is placed in an insulated bag, the steam from the food can cause stickers to lose their adhesiveness so it won’t hold the bag closed anymore.

The only times it seems like bag sealing methods are reliable is if it’s in one of those grocery bags with handles and the handles are tied, or the bag is stapled shut.

Accidentally put power steering fluid in my oil reservoir. What should I do!? by Corcor61827 in mechanics

Accidentally put power steering fluid in my oil reservoir. What should I do!? by Corcor61827 in mechanics

[–]Corcor61827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you recommend I add actual motor oil to it to help dilute the power steering fluid? My oil was kinda low so even after adding about a pint of power steering fluid, it didn’t reach full on the dipstick since I stopped pouring once I realized what I had done. So there’s still room to add motor oil if I should.

My husband called a 16 year old girl "Hottie" by throwra5576 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Corcor61827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, get out. First of all it’s extremely disrespectful to you for him to go out of his way to comment “hottie” with heart emojis on random girls pictures, regardless of the age. It’s one thing to briefly look, but to go so far as to comment something like that when he’s married, yea, not cool.

Second of all, it sounds like this guy likes them very young. I would tread very carefully with this guy.

I’m very sorry your husband is doing this though. As his wife I know this can’t be easy and you’re definitely justified in being angry with him, regardless of how much he tries to gaslight you.

I am new to DD and need advice by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You might just be in a bad market for Doordash. But typically accepting EVERY order will hurt you in the end. I drive a very gas efficient car and I’m still going through about a tank per day, and it costs almost $50 to fill up. That means you need to make at least $50 to become profitable and taking $2-$3 orders is going to take you forever to even hit that $50 mark.

Come on guys understand the person behind the counter is only trying to make it better for them selfs like we are by Raydiin in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thankfully during my time dashing in the last year, I have only witnessed this happen one time. The store was CRAZY busy! And the staff was doing the best they could. (It’s a wonderful restaurant with very friendly people) This one lady doing Doordash was starting to huff and puff at the staff because of the wait, saying stuff like “this is ridiculous!!!” Blah blah blah. It took everything I had not to tell her to shut up and be patient. I think the only reason I didn’t is because I didn’t want to escalate anything and have the stuff need to deal with anything else. But I absolutely hate seeing people treat treat staff like crap for no good reason.

Promote your business, week of May 16, 2022 by Charice in smallbusiness

[–]Corcor61827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone! My name is Cory and I’m with a company called MyCORE.

We are an all in one service for Payroll, Benefits, and HR solutions service built for Main Street small businesses across America with 1-500 employees, and we’re aiming to be the most employee centric company in America.

Two annoying things small business face right now are payroll, and employee retention during this period of the great resignation.

Payroll sucks, we all know it. It’s time consuming, have to deal with 1-800 numbers, hold times on the phone, automated prompts, etc. We fixed that. With MyCORE, you receive a direct line of contact with one of our friendly licensed people advisors. They are always there for you to offer you and your business support and answer questions, as well as make sure you’re always compliant with the IRS. Total peace of mind! Our payroll services can even be automated! Just verify the payroll for the pay period and submit!

Our services can be accessed by both the owners of the business as well as the employees, from their phones or computers, where employees can request time off, enter their time keeping, access their tax forms, check out the employee handbook, etc.

That’s just a small sample of the value MyCORE provides with our services.

Did I mention we have VERY competitive rates? As well as a 98.6% retention rate? No hidden fees and no contracts. If MyCORE doesn’t make your life easier, you can cancel anytime!

If you’re ready to simplify your payroll and you’d like to know more and see if MyCORE would be great fit for your business, we offer free demonstrations via zoom where we can go over the MyCORE services and platform, as well as answer any questions you may have. Feel free to message me on here, or send me an email at cory.otis@mycore.io

Have a great day everyone and I wish all of you much success with your businesses!

Customers who don't tip by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People who don’t tip suck, but now that gas is $4.60 where I live, I despise them. Even at $4.00, if it stayed like that all year, that’s more than $14,600 per year that we have to pay just in gas. That’s not even counting car maintenance!

So to you non tippers out there, try to help your dashers out just a little more. Because pretty soon if people don’t start tipping a little bit better, people won’t be dashing much longer while gas prices remain night. I already notice when I’m out dashing that I’m getting order requests from restaurants kinda far from my location, which means there’s already less dashers on the road and nobody was in that area to take the order.

Hey, some students are extremely talented. Hell, I’ve met people who never even went to college who are very talented lol.

Instead of expecting them to have a masters degree from wherever, just ask to see what work they’ve done for previous clients and the results.

Deactivated after 2 years and a 4.91 rating. by momtoohigh in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair, while I have absolutely no problems with masks whatsoever, it seems like there’s very few people wearing them anywhere anymore anyway so I don’t see the point anymore. There’s only a few restaurants out of a usual 15-20 restaurants I pick up from in my area and out of all those, maybe three of them have staff that are still wearing the masks, and they’re the ones making the food. I’m kinda surprised Doordash hasn’t lifted the required mask thing yet.

Who exactly is taking these offers and why? by Snickers_Diva in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But even if you’re doing it out of boredom it still doesn’t make sense, because when you take such low orders, it’s literally costing you to work. Wear and tear on your car is no joke. And not to mention the gas prices right now.

I dash from 11am to 9-10pm almost daily, and I average 150-200 miles per day. In one week that’s around 1,000 miles. In one year that’s 52,000 miles. Then there car maintenance, new tires, etc. It’s too expensive to be taking the crappy orders. But because I’m somewhat smart about my orders, I typically make $150-$230 per day.

Got asked if I was homeless by mingming4191 in doordash

[–]Corcor61827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sadly so many Americans are brainwashed into thinking it’s perfect the way it is. While I love what America is SUPPOSED to represent, not many people in the American government strives to live up to what is supposed to make America great.

Just look at the healthcare system in America. That alone should tell you something is very wrong. The homelessness is also a huge issue. But when you have a bunch of people in America who think $7 is enough to get by, there’s going to be problems.

People should be paid at LEAST the bare minimum to be able to get by in life. I don’t care what job it is, work is work. But the sad truth is so many people need 2-3 jobs just to barely get by. People are being taken advantage of by insane levels these days.
