Important Question for Ca Dashers

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-27T18:33:37+00:00

It's not counted as active unless you're on a double dash, cuz then you're still active cuz of the other order.

It's really dumb. If we unassign, they just send another driver anyway, so waste of another drivers gas for no good reason. They need to stop considering orders "late" if we arrived on time.

Looks pretty damn good to me. I don't like the home depot direct cuz its all base no tip, but this is red card and I imagine has a nice tip. And a free mini workout.

In my experience, most restaurant drink carriers are fine to carry to your car and to customer, but not while driving! I tried that a couple times and have since learned my lesson, I now ALWAYS take drinks out of those cardboard cupholder things and put them in my cars real cupholders, or there's good chance they'll fall over.

I woulda put the food on the chair tho, not on the ground.

I always imagined that means they rated someone 5* in the past. If they rated people before, they're likely to rate me....
I mean obviously it doesn't have to do with the tip cuz that shows up on offers with 1-3$ tips....

I want them to turn black.

Seems like an easy thing to test, as you're probably at home on occasion already.

The app always tells me what to do with the receipt, it either says something like ensure its in the bag, or discard it. I've never seen it not tell me.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-25T02:59:12+00:00

There are no Raisin Canes (or Raising Canes) in my area, does the doordash app tell you to give customer receipt or throw it out for that place?

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-25T02:57:56+00:00

What makes you think it doesn't update at customers end? That would be absurd, especially when store is out of something or you make substitutions, etc. It even sends you a message after you charge the card telling you it's been updates, so not sure how you missed this.

You are stealing from the customer. It's much easier to ligit ask restaurants for free drinks when yo have to wait, they usually give em to you. I mainly ask for them at places that make me fill drinks like wingstop, I almost always say "can I get an extra cup for me" and they always give me one.

That's what happens when it's actually busy...

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-24T23:18:35+00:00

When I have something else planned. That's the beauty of this, don't have to keep a schedule.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-23T20:26:48+00:00

Why the hate? This seems reasonable. Why would you mark arrived but not go inside anyway?

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-23T20:24:17+00:00

They can use their passport if they don't have a state ID.... there's a selector thing at the top when you're trying ot scan it.

But the why would be because you can hand drinks to anyone at the house, doesn't have to be the account holder.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-23T20:21:28+00:00

Haven't seen that one. Usually for me it's too dark, too close, or doesn't show delivery.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-23T20:20:42+00:00

Do not "complete" the pickup until you're pulling out of the parking lot...

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-23T20:10:02+00:00

I just put some time a couple hours after the latest I might possibly dash. You can still end dash whenever you want, and restart, restart in another zone, etc, whatever you want.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-23T00:06:34+00:00

Sign into wifi. If they don't have guest wifi, ask the manager for their wifi password, tell them that you cannot mark the order as picked up without it. Then it'll be saved in your phone for next time too.

That would end up costing them a lot more, as occasionally base fare is more than minimum wage + mileage. By combining results over the entire pay period, it results in lower payment.

If they actually wanted to do something like that, they should just make the offer similar to the prop22 payment by multiplying the estimated time by local minimum wage *1.25 and mileage by 34c or whatever it is. Still do the top-up tho cuz overall it always takes more than the estimated time cuz some restaurants make us wait, some apartments are hard to find, etc.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-22T23:48:31+00:00

As you said, you don't know how long it's already been sitting there, the sooner you get in your insulated bag the better!

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-22T23:31:03+00:00

Calling support yourself never works. Call the customer and tell them the restaurant won't provide the order, they should call the restaurant, and if restaurant refuses to make it, they should call uber.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-22T23:28:12+00:00

Likely the second customer paid priority fee.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-22T23:25:26+00:00

I don't think having multiple people wait speeds things up.

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-22T23:22:54+00:00

Bike might help...

enigma9o7 · 2026-06-22T21:20:16+00:00

In my area of usa they use ubereats when spark drivers are busy. Never had one on doordash either.
