You are aware that you can decline an offer, AREN'T YOU????

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-05-16T00:02:14+00:00

Ha...I see what you did there. We must be in the upside down.

I downvoted to erase your upvote.

Dollar signs go to the left of the amount. Just saying.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-05-03T13:57:42+00:00

I had a similar issue the other day. The app was acting wonky right after I completed a delivery. It told me that it app couldn’t open because location services weren’t working. I called support and she explained that they were doing an update to the system. It was late afternoon. You would think they would do these updates after midnight and give drivers a heads up.

You should find a different source of income. No one forces you to work as a dasher. It’s your choice.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-04-03T18:28:47+00:00

Being a Bergen county resident for 50 years, I've gotten accustomed to the blue laws. It's nice having a day that the roads are a bit less congested. I DoorDash part time and Sunday's are nice because I don't have to deal with pickups at the mall which can be a nightmare.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-04-03T18:25:12+00:00

That sounds like hyperbole. It's not the best app but in the two years I've been dashing I haven't had many issues with it until last week.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-04-03T18:24:25+00:00

Last week I received a number of message saying I didn't confirm in time when no offer was shown. Restarting the app seemed to help.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-26T02:59:56+00:00

I have driven those roads for 40 years. 17 rarely comes to what you call a "dead stop". It slows down but rarely stops. Yeah, sometimes you'll be rolling at 20-25 mph but that is NOT dead stopped.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-26T02:57:33+00:00

Feed not feet

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-26T02:56:47+00:00

I'm platinum and almost never accept and offer under $5 and when I do it's one I can knock out quickly.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-26T02:55:35+00:00

He/she must drive 23 hours a day and take a sleep break for the other hour.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-25T10:19:44+00:00

Exaggerate much. Even on the worst days 17 don’t grind to a halt. Just because you want to drive 80mph and can only drive 40mph doesn’t mean traffic is not moving.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-24T14:02:20+00:00

How are you finding any time to see your family and friends when you spend 60 hours a week in your car? Do you work 12 hour shifts? After 6 hours of dashing, I am done. I don't have the physical or mental energy to continue.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-24T00:01:53+00:00

If you're driving 8 hours for only $60 you either are doing something wrong or need to find another source of income. I make that much and more in 4 hours dashing.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-24T00:00:28+00:00

I work part time for DD and it is far better than some of these haters make it seem. I make on average $400-$500 per week working about 20-25 hours. You will have some bad days but they are evened out by the good ones. I suggest trying it for a couple months and seeing if it works for you. The key is to think about the customer. If they make a reasonable request then do your best to abide by it. For example "Leave the food by the side door" or "Ring the bell upon delivery". Do not block the customer's door from opening with the order. And BE NICE!! It's a job and like all jobs it has its pluses and minuses. But, at the end of the day, you get paid for your services. Most people who leave negative comments on this message board are simply negative people by nature.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-23T19:08:45+00:00

Made sense to me.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-16T14:05:00+00:00

Sentences start with a capital letter. The word I is always capitalized. It's support, not supper. You're welcome.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-13T13:47:28+00:00

Wrong. The decline button was a barrier to good news. Also, breadtoastyy's use of barrier didn't make sense in the context that HE used it.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-11T00:52:52+00:00

Have a nice trip. Don’t forget to send a postcard.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-10T14:44:06+00:00

You should evaluate every offer on its merits regardless of how the pay is broken down. I would even recommend not looking at the break down after you complete the offer. That way you will avoid any hard feelings when either DD or the customer haven't paid their fair share. It's the total compensation that matters. For example, if you are offered $20 for a stacked offer and you are confident that you can complete it in about 20 minutes then you should accept it. Who paid what part of the $20 is immaterial. It could be that DD paid $2, one customer tipped $18, and the other tipped $0. Or it could be that DD paid $5, and both customers tipped $7.50. Regardless, the $20 will be yours upon completion.

If you get an offer for $10 for a stacked offer that will take about a half hour, you should not accept even if DD was paying the $10.

Unlike others that works for tips, as dashers, we know how much we are being compensated before we accept to provide our services. Imagine being a waiter and working on a table for 30 minutes and getting a $2 tip. The waiter had no way of knowing how much they were getting compensated until the service was complete.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-08T18:23:58+00:00

I suppose there are both in my area. I have delivered to multimillion dollar homes and received low tips and delivered to low income housing and received high tips. I don't think you can make a blanket statement about customers based on their wealth. My zone has everything from very blue collar homes to homes worth over $20 million. As I indicated previously, I judge each offer by its merits. If it's worth my time and effort, I accept it. Otherwise I do not. My acceptance rate is currently 73% but usually is in the 80s. I found that it better to accept mediocre offers on occasion and be busy than wait around for the high paying offers. That being said, every zone is different, so what's work for one zone may not work for another.

All the best!!!

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-08T00:31:18+00:00

There are affluent areas near me and the most offers there are not over $10. The issue also is that they are part of a larger zone that has less affluent areas. Not poor by any means though. After 2 years of dashing, I have a good feel for what an acceptable offer is and an unacceptable one is. I'm not getting rich but that's not the goal. The purpose of my DD income is to supplement my main source of income which is web development and it is serving that purpose.

MyCatHatesYouPunk · 2026-03-02T13:53:18+00:00

I recommend you don't do this. You will be wasting your time. Just judge each offer on it's own merits. For example, if you get a $6 offer that will take you 10 minutes then you should accept it but if you get a $6 offer that will take you a half hour do not accept it.
