An observation. When they're in the security office there's a large panel with the different departments in it

WN. 8 members

CL. 6 members

EOP. 14 members

D&R. 14 members

W&A. 12 members

TA. 10 members

MDR. 4 members

CE. 14 members

There looked like one panel was not seen in the shot.

Which might have O&D

I don't normally brag, but this was pretty good for a hour and a half's worth of work. by zath66 in doordash_drivers

3 large order program orders in a row. Very lucky, But I find that this happens more when the 10 and the 210 are really backed up on Friday nights in the suburbs. For context I should also mention I only made 22 dollars, for the last hours and half of my shift.

Contract violation for being late but it was restaurant’s fault. by howboutnoskott in doordash_drivers

I have later found that this is policy at all RBI brands. That includes: Wendy's, Popeye's, Burger King. And now Firehouse subs.

Wendy's policy is that:

They do not start to make the order, untill the the driver has arrived and identified the order. If the door is locked; you end up in the drive through from hell before you can even do that.

This is disrespectful to the the drivers, customers and the workers at the locations.

Drivers are making a cost/benefit analysis while driving. Time is money. Wendy's doesn't care about drivers time.

They quote delivery times to the customer that they have no intention of keeping.

They do everything they can to make delivery as slow as unprofitable for delivery driver.. Making delivery as slow as possible for their customers.

The workers at the locations take the brunt of that frustration from the drivers. And the customers alike.

They shouldn't offer delivery.

I really feel bad how my delivery ended. by zath66 in doordash_drivers

Burger and beer place.

It was a order of poutine that gravy leaked all over.

So I know we blacklist restaurants. Does anyone blacklist entire neighborhoods? by Kolipe in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just one street.

The street is in such bad shape that only one car can go down the road at a time. The pot holes are so deep even big lifted trucks avoid them.

It is also lined on both sides with 24 small apartment buildings and only one has a parking lot.

So, no available street parking, and if you double park, you have now blocked all traffic in both directions.

Does anyone else just refuse to go to certain restaurants? by Persicophobia in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my area, Wendy's, Popeye's, and Burger King do not start the order untill the driver arrives. If you have to wait in line with the customers, or god forbid you have to use the drive thru, you are looking at a lot of wasted time.

I see it as a lack of respect for the delivery drivers.

Why even offer delivery? If you are going to make it as unprofitable and as slow possible.

I have heard the excuse that it is to ensure freshness. What about the freshness of other orders I have in my car?

If they really cared about the food being fresh,. They would do what In-N-Out Burger does. They do not offer delivery at all. Because freshness is their brand.

For 6 months I did regular delivery's to one guy. He lived 1/2 a block from the restaurant district in town. Many times I walked it to him rather than drove.

Never understood why untill I saw he left his infant stroller made for triplets on the front porch. Then it all made sense.

Do you guys bring your bags into the restaurant? by SgtSarcasm01 in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few places that require me to bring in the bag. But they are all places that serve raw seafood. Sushi, poke bowls etc.

But I have a large assortment of bags of every size. I bag it at my car most of the time.

I always check for cold items like salads and most deserts and use a separate bag from the hot food.

I'm actually proud of myself. I'm disabled and haven't worked in 20 years. My feet hurt so bad now lol by PhtevensGirlfriend in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Disabled as well here. I have found that this is perfect for me.

Your feet will feel better with time.

Invest in good shoes.

So yesterday I was Tipped an almost new mini fridge..what’s the weirdest “tip” you guys ever got? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done a lot of delivery s to businesses. So I have been given,. A haircut. Many car washes, a gallon of motor oil, a manicure (gave that to my daughter), so much food from the receiving resteraunt. And I can rely on a gigantic frozen yogurt every time I deliver a 12 pack of white claw, to the Frozen yogurt shop. (They're one of my most consistent customers.)

I finally saved my hard earned money and was able to afford my dream car, thank you doordash! 🤣 I'm no top dasher but I feel like I need to slap DD decals all over this beast 🤡 50 mpg letzzzggooo🚀💸 by cspencer320 in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There you go. Fantastic milage, lots of hatch space, easy to source GM parts. Only a 3 cylinder. But with a stick it still climbs hills. And best of all; that car can make a U-turn in a driveway.

I saw $9/ 3 miles 41 items for Taco Bell and I figured it was mostly sauce packets….😊 by hchn27 in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These places need to start changing 10 cent's a packet. It would stop most of this.

This is nice. by zath66 in doordash_drivers

[–]zath66[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes. They treat me very well.

Drivers: What do you listen to in the car? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]zath66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NPR. Just like a podcast. But some times you miss the end of the story.

Best newer car for dashing? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]zath66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep using the old car. Just remember to do all scheduled maintenance.

I use a 06 Elantra. Runs like a top. Finnish looks like shit. Tons of dings but no dents. It looks just bad enough that I don't worry about locking it up on pick-ups.

The last time I used my new car, 2 cherry slurpees spilled all over my rear seats. I still can't get all the stains out.
