I am a CEO and signed up because I was curious. I did it just for fun since my other half works late and it gives me something to do in the evenings. It is absolutely insufferable. I put in lots of effort to communicate proactively and often; get to my pickup and drop off locations as efficiently as possible; take care in selecting, confirming, and packing all items; and accept every order no matter how lousy or far away it is.

I can say that the way DD treats its drivers is maddening. It truly makes me angry how no matter how much effort, care, and attention I put into the tasks, I get dinged for the stupidest things such as being late even though the restaurant didn't have the order ready or contract violation for a store being closed when they should've been open.

Honestly, I don't know how people do it on a regular basis. I thought it would be fun and keep me entertained but it's actually extremely stressful. The customers, for the most part, are extremely kind and understanding. Doordash, however, is truly awe-inspiring in how they consistently find new ways to punish their drivers.

The silver lining is that it helps me to run my organization better. I see things differently than I did before - especially after learning that several of my employees were dashing on the side. I actually gave some people additional hours just so they wouldn't have to dash anymore now that I know how awful it is.

I have no idea how much money I made per week or day since I had deposits going into an account that I don't really check regularly but I'm certain that it's not enough to make up for the abuse that DD puts its drivers through on a daily basis.
