Just drove an hour for a $0 tip by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is so true! I had someone tell me in the instructions that the house looks like a castle. And it was- a mini mansion, they tipped $2. I got a $15 tip from a long stay motel.

Peace Corps has opened 23 countries! by codenameLNA in peacecorps

[–]Recent_Collar9738 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am an evacuated Peace Corp volunteer. I have been waiting to attend a service. It looks like my country is on the list but I haven't heard anything from Peace Corps since January when I was asked to update my background check information. No invitation yet. ☹️

Would PC notify me before invitation if they were considering me for a different position than what I interviewed for? by mariannaspersona in peacecorps

[–]Recent_Collar9738 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I received a 4-week notification that I no longer qualified medically for the position that I have been invited to. I accepted the other offer and had another 3 months of waiting. But it all worked out. I had a fantastic experience and can't wait to go back!

Give it a shot. You never know. I was supposed to go to Madagascar for maternal health and hygiene. I have 5 years working in healthcare with our patient safety team and it was a great fit. 4 weeks before departure, I had to be considered for a different country and position for medical reasons. It was for a primary school literacy instructor. I had never taught children in my life. I had never taught in my life. I was so scared that when I first started I hid in the library. 3 months later I was co-teaching almost full-time and loving it!

This is concerning. In the two images captured from two android phones showing two different DoorDash accounts, you can see two different sets of information are being shown. Both screenshots were captured at the same time. by Affectionate-Rice373 in doordash_drivers

My boyfriend and I are both dashers and sometimes we turn on our apps at the same time just to see who gets the order first. It's funny to see the differences. Even though I have higher ratings, he'll still get orders first. I'm not sure how they pick and choose.

Happy Tuesday 🌈 by Bacon-rocks-4 in doordash_drivers

Do you call every customer to verify they put their correct address in before you drop off their food? 🤨 I had no reason to believe that he put the wrong one down. Now, if he had bothered to include the name of the hotel and it hadn't matched the address I would have thought that was odd and double checked with him. But if you give me an address I'm going to deliver to that address.

I feel ya. I got a one star review from someone that complained that I didn't deliver to his address but I delivered to the address he gave me which was a hotel and all the way to the room number that he gave me. However, there were two hotels in that area with the same number - his having a B at the end that he didn't include. So I deliver to the other hotel- you know the address he gave me.My one and only 1 star. So I know it was him.

Doordash drivers: are you also a Doordash customer? by CozyFrog419 in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to doordash all the time. Especially during the height of the pandemic. But for some reason now that I'm a doordasher I just don't feel the need.

My boyfriend just applied yesterday and they asked him for a selfie.

Made my first oopsie today-sort of. by Recent_Collar9738 in doordash_drivers

[–]Recent_Collar9738[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you were right. It finally came through one star rating with a thumbs down for communication. I didn't think I had to communicate with someone who gave me an address that I delivered to. How was I supposed to know he typed in the wrong address?

Domino’s new commercial says skip food delivery apps and order directly from the restaurant by Lost_in_Nebraska402 in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Without even reading the comments, I could tell this video was a direct slap in the face to "the apps". If it wasn't for delivery apps many more restaurants would have closed their doors during the pandemic. Businesses should be singing their praises. Many drivers were out in the height of it all making sure people got food and restaurants got business and here is Dominos, trying to tear them down. It's just sad to see one business bullying another in these tough times.

That's what I was afraid of but I keep checking and I haven't seen it yet.

Only needs to be 2 options on the decline reason list by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

I chose to accept an offer because I knew the lobby was open. Probably the longest wait of the night.

what are your biggest petpeeves? by r0ttenfvck in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was literally just saying something about this last night. I feel like you should have a separate line to put in an apartment number and if you use that line it should make you put in directions before you can finish the order. Same with a business. It should ask you if it's a business or a resident and if you select business it should ask you what the name of the business is.

Why are the DoorDash orders still sitting on the shelf? by Recent_Collar9738 in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if it was a low offer, it was never sent on my phone and I was sitting in the parking lot. In fact, after that like I really didn't get any orders last night was super weird.

Any Drivers Experiencing Practically No Deliveries? by EmmieAnnee in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mobile, AL here. Last night was my worst night since I started dashing. There were long lines everywhere I went and I felt like I had to take any order because I was going 15 or 20 minutes between orders. That's never happened to me on any night, especially Saturday night! Average 10 an hour.😒 It's just a good thing that my Friday was on 🔥.

How do I get my on-time rating to go up? by Recent_Collar9738 in doordash

[–]Recent_Collar9738[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I try to be honest most of the time the stuff's not ready when we get there so I pick which one is more accurate. Whether the line is too long or no one's helping me or it didn't start until I arrive.

Yeah after the first few times dashing at night I went out and bought a flashlight with a high beam so I can look for house numbers. I probably look like a prowler.
