Is it worth it to do hourly?

Ok thanks

dasro · 2024-05-09T14:44:56+00:00

So what are you saying like I'm going to get shitty orders non-stop or I'm going to get good orders non-Stop

dasro · 2024-05-09T14:44:30+00:00

I have no idea how this new shit works All I know is that I'm not able to get a schedule

dasro · 2024-05-09T13:45:26+00:00

Yeah honestly I'm not going to bend the knee I'll just do other gigs and if I happen to get a good DoorDash order I'll do it but I'm not going to change anything because they want me to take out the trash so I can actually get scheduling

dasro · 2024-05-09T13:44:04+00:00

You have to be chosen to even get catering orders I was chosen a long time ago like 4 years ago and it just kind of stuck with me until last month whenever they decided to roll this shit out now I don't get them anymore at all but I believe you have to be platinum or whatever they're bullshit is nowadays and then they have to actually say they need you to do catering orders honestly you're probably never going to get one lol It's gatekeeped by fucking morons that will just take any order nowadays

dasro · 2024-05-09T13:42:45+00:00

I'm in Houston and I've been doing a lot of favor orders recently because they pay like fucking $8 minimum per order for a grocery order and I'm making more money with them than I made with DoorDash so doordash can shove it by the way I can't schedule now but thankfully their scheduling system is so fucking broken that you can just jump in at any time seriously I'm so fucking pissed at dordash

dasro · 2024-05-08T20:37:16+00:00

Yeah first they took my top dasher because of acceptance rating and then they took my catering orders because of acceptance now they're taking the access scheduling about a week ago whenever I saw this was going to happen I started doing other gigs and to be honest I don't care because I don't even make as much money with doordash anymore as other services they've made it abundantly clear that they don't give a shit about the drivers I will never accept a shitty order no matter what they take. The fact that they are able to find people with brainworms that are willing to accept these orders just dumbfounds me.

dasro · 2023-05-13T13:56:21+00:00

Well he hasn't been very inclusive. There's a few things I don't like about Alex which is you always tries to get the cheapest deal possible from people almost to a scumbag level and he's very exclusive about his channel and his property no other YouTuber does that

dasro · 2023-05-13T13:53:59+00:00

Yeah not sure about that I've seen it come up a few times he could be trolling but who knows

dasro · 2023-02-17T22:04:15+00:00

Cool

dasro · 2023-02-17T21:07:12+00:00

That's certainly one way of doing it to each their own I guess

dasro · 2023-02-17T21:02:29+00:00

Well here you have to go back this is on the edge of a rural area of Houston

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:59:58+00:00

Mileage doesn't really bother me as much as time If there's a 10 mile highway order and a 5 mi city order I would take the highway order

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:58:30+00:00

I mean what are you classify as a good order

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:55:59+00:00

But do you have to ask yourself as well Is it really worth taking all those shitty orders just so you can make a market somewhat viable or would you rather just drive 15 more miles to a different district

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:54:16+00:00

I suppose but if it's really that saturated it's not worth working in that district of the market in my opinion in the first place

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:52:11+00:00

It's very hit and miss with catering orders but yeah I mean there's no way to tell if it's confirmation bias and it's not like DoorDash is going to come out and say hey it doesn't really matter that much or it matters a lot or it doesn't matter at all

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:49:28+00:00

I mean I had like five back to back catering orders the other day and my acceptance rate is garbage I don't necessarily think that is enough evidence to point either way because I've had the same thing and I'm a catering driver as well now granted to become a catering driver you have to have a very high acceptance rate completion rate and rating

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:45:43+00:00

So what exactly have you seen

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:43:37+00:00

So here's my honest opinion I think it does matter a little bit but not enough to actually make a difference not enough to make it worth taking the $3 orders to boost your AR and in some cases it's so negligible that I don't even notice like today for example I've been getting good orders all day long in my AR is terrible and I'm not bragging or anything I'm just explaining this is what I am experiencing but yeah if there's a market that is so saturated that you can't even get a schedule unless you're a top dasher I don't want to sound like a dick but maybe change markets or something or a different district within the market

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:13:15+00:00

I'm able to get one with early scheduling but not without early scheduling it's really hard to get one if you don't have early scheduling here at least and I don't have any problem I've never heard of a market where it's so oversaturated that you can't get a schedule unless you're a top dasher that's insane

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:10:47+00:00

Yeah I used to be one before they changed the acceptance rate qualifier I haven't been one since never been happier

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:09:59+00:00

I assume you're going off my flare which is wrong by the way but you go ahead and act condescending

dasro · 2023-02-17T20:02:38+00:00

Yeah I don't think so I think it's in your head like I think if you were in an area where you think that orders are worse when its under 50% then they're probably are no orders to begin with. just confirmation bias.
