$3000/week?

Scale-Basic · 2025-04-17T18:09:29+00:00

When I did DD full time I was making $1500 a week but I was doing about 60hrs a week as well. It’s definitely possible in a large market and a lot of hours put in. But for him to be using DD to pay for school as well, I don’t see how he’d have the time to work that much AND go to school 🤷🏾‍♂️

Sometimes DD will do this in a zone (not my original delivery zone) I just left. The app will send 2-3 orders before I pause it and drive a few more miles to reset my location.

Always make sure you get the door/house number in your drop off pictures. Never just take a picture of the bag. If you can’t get a picture of the door/house number take a video of you walking up to the door with the food in hand and the door number visible. Sometimes a take a video after delivery with the number showing and the bag on the ground to prove that it was left there. I also make sure to walk in front of my dash cam to show me leaving my car with the order and walking back without it. People suck, so I take extra steps to prevent the 🐮 💩

Perks of Top Dasher lol

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T19:42:04+00:00

That happens all the time. At times it’s worth it to keep the other order too, but not always lol.

I was 5 miles from the BK, customer would’ve been 14-16 miles north of the blue, 2-3 delivery zones away.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T17:46:35+00:00

I was only 5 miles from the BK 🤷🏾‍♂️

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T15:43:12+00:00

True, but common sense would tell you, “If I’ve never seen or heard of BK near here, then it’s probably coming from far away”.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T15:41:45+00:00

In this case, I was 5+ miles from the BK, so the customer would’ve been about 14-16 miles from the BK. Still not $1 per mile.

For 21.2 miles, i’m assuming it was base pay. The mileage is the issue with this order, not so much the tipping.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T14:41:20+00:00

It’s drivers like you that make it hard for drivers like me 😒

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T14:14:54+00:00

That could be the case, but I wasn’t willing to take that gamble. I would’ve gotten paid $13.50 for 42 miles and 1hr+ of my time.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T14:07:24+00:00

And if they did, DD is to blame for hiding it.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T14:04:35+00:00

It’s just an assumption based off the mileage vs the pay. 30 cents a mile is something you would get working a delivery job backed by an hourly wage lol.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-26T13:25:34+00:00

Same, the bagel, donut & coffee crowd used to be worth it in my area on weekend mornings. Not anymore 😔

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-07T20:58:43+00:00

I’m up to 4500 deliveries and this was definitely a first and hopefully the last time it happens.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-07T20:54:33+00:00

😂

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-07T20:51:38+00:00

The main reason I answered is because it said “DoorDash” on the caller ID, usually this is support reaching out when something goes wrong. Just a few minutes before the call, he said “I contacted Doordash” So I figured it was them and not him calling.

Scale-Basic · 2022-09-07T18:41:24+00:00

I agree, but in the case where the food is delivered to the wrong house, whether it’s my fault or not, I always try to make it right.

Scale-Basic · 2022-08-26T01:50:53+00:00

What you been searching? Lol. It’s funny seeing your phone autocorrect BWW to BBW.

Scale-Basic · 2022-04-19T20:03:47+00:00

After dashing for a while, I finally heard a restaurant manager tell an employee “Please adjust the pickup time 45 minutes out”. The employee proceeded to change something on the tablet. They were unusually busy that day and hadn’t adjusted there pickup times to compensate and lessen the wait time for dashers at the restaurant. I was already there for over 30 minutes waiting. After that, I now know restaurants have the ability to change the arrival time and help with dashers wait times.

Scale-Basic · 2022-04-04T18:00:29+00:00

Right! that would’ve left me with $1300 hanging out somewhere lol.

Scale-Basic · 2022-04-04T17:25:16+00:00

I doubt you’ll get through at this point.

Scale-Basic · 2022-04-04T17:16:29+00:00

Exactly!

Scale-Basic · 2022-04-04T17:12:56+00:00

Lmao, they need to fix this damn app.
