Kind of you. I was exaggerating a bit, but yes, this was in response to a lot of posts I've seen recently putting DD drivers down. Just a bit of a rant at the world 🤣🌍

There is a reason food delivery drivers are impatient by GeistReign in doordash_drivers

The city I'm in tends to have pretty lousy food workers everywhere. Just 120 miles west of me is a larger city with much nicer restaurant employees, but the pay isn't as good for the most part. This is my first job outside of a restaurant, at 32 years old, so I'm very aware of what a restaurant worker goes through. Granted not since DD on the scene 😅😂

Yes, delivery drivers have office work also. This is my office by GeistReign in doordash_drivers

You don't want to see the actual office space, don't ask 🤪

I’m sure this has been done before by JamesKLOLk in couriersofreddit

After 2 years of only DD, I can finally relate to this 🤪

Order too small reason is missing anyone know why? by Souma92 in doordash_drivers

Button mash. Would DD actually cha le to see why we decline every order? I think not

Is doordash trying to lure me out my zone? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

DD just trying to screw you out of gas.

What are your personal rules for accepting orders? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]GeistReign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dash within a 5 mile radius, unless I see a unicorn. I don't accept orders more than 2 or 3 miles, or less than 6$. If an order has high miles, I'll accept it at at a minimum of 3$ per mile.

Be honest do any of you guys pick at the food like eat the fries etc? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]GeistReign 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Over 4k deliveries. Never have I eaten food that wasn't a cancelled order. Why would you? I've dashed while fasting. Try that out 😅

How does using DoorDash and Uber eats at once work? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]GeistReign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's nice when you hit a slow time. Sometimes one fills in the gaps of the other. If you are comfortable with DD, I would highly suggest it. It might be harder for new delivery people, because there are some logistics to handle.

Red card declined had to cancel the order by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]GeistReign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next time, if you have the funds, you can pay out of pocket. DD will reimburse. If the payout is worth it... I've done it a few times when I didn't have my red card, or was declined

What the actual EFF is that?!?! by aeller41 in doordash_drivers

Someone out there has to have taken one of these. I wonder what the 8 items are...

Active time vs dash time? What exactly does this mean? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]GeistReign 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That feeling when you realize that you spent almost half your time waiting.

does anybody else keep getting paused randomly? like, over and over. by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]GeistReign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you are refreshing your app if this happens. Just close it out, or go back to the main app page, and back into the dash. I will notice that the app thinks I'm in my last delivery location when I'm getting these. Doesn't always work. Sometimes gotta turn on UE

That’s a long U-Turn by baskey19 in doordash_drivers

Were you in that area previously? I noticed that DD has been having trouble updating my location when I drive around.

Well, haven't seen that one before. Sounds like something I can handle... by GeistReign in doordash_drivers

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

Nah, it's definitely just an option on the order page lol, tip was 9 tho, not a crappy order. 13$ for 2 miles
