Cars do have seat belts now. In the US it is a law.

Weird argument. The cost to can those beans and package them, then ship to store is way higher thanks to shutting down pipelines and canceling permits. So... yeah while they may or may not have improved, you're paying more.

Why post that part of the story if you feel it's just too personal a situation and don't want people "digging into" it? It seems that is a pretty damned important part of the story, does it not? A semi driver purposely slamming into you? That's attempted vehicular homicide my dude. That's a criminal charge and a massive lawsuit to boot. No one is saying ignore the damage, the only person who said that was you.

At the end of the day OP mentioned they did it purposely. Which makes it fair for people to ask. OP can, of course, elect to not answer a question. I don't see why you're white knighting on this thread acting like people are so out of line and "digging into" personal business when OP himself put that tidbit out there.

I mean if they added it was on purpose it's a legitimate question.

What precisely do you suggest? Lay it out for us how you expect the drivers to "stand up to DoorDash?"

Honestly no jobs pay what anyone needs. They're all trash. That's why people can't afford to live alone anymore. I get what you're saying but you come off as trying way too hard to make a ridiculous point. I make more dashing than I would at most w2 jobs tbh.

You are just wrong. They absolutely would've caught it. They verify your identity before you're allowed to drive. Your social mistyped? You aren't allowed to proceed. It's most likely identity theft.

Set up pay for an EZCater order. When dropping off the food we have to set it up for the customer, usually a business, lay it out on the table after taking everything out of bags/boxes. Make sure serving utensils are laid over bowls/trays.

We aren't the employees of DoorDash. We are contracted to you via DoorDash, a third party app. You are the employer for the duration of said contract. Legally speaking. Yes, pay a livable wage, boss.

Are you aware of what DoorDash actually pays? Also, are you aware that we are not employed by DoorDash? We don't see those service fees or delivery fees. We see $2. We are independent contractors. The fees you pay are for the app to connect you with a third party delivery driver and get us to the restaurant to pick up your order. In this situation, I hate to break it to you and people who think like you, but our employer for said contract is YOU.

Next time you guys attempt to justify your lack of tipping or insult of a tip by tipping less than $1, by saying "your employer should pay you better," understand that WE AGREE, BOSS. Pay us better.

Not disagreeing. Simply stating that when people throw the "it's not up to me its up to YOUR EMPLOYER to pay you" they're wrong. As an IC my contract is with the customer, via DoorDash as a third party that connects us. The employer is in fact the customer.

We aren't employees of DoorDash

If every delivery you make has an issue... the common denominator is you. Buy some house numbers and turn on the fucking light. It isn't rocket science yet so many can't figure it out.

I mean... I'm not sure what you guys hope to gain or what point you're attempting to make when yall post this? You and a couple other people do this all the time. You do realize that it is not only not responsibility to do the restaurants job, but violates health code in many instances? Like no im not making your drink. I'm not making your food. I'm not opening your bag to check what items are in there. Not doing it.

I will double check and ask is this everything if it's a restaurant that seals every item in the bag. If I can tell stuff is missing I will make sure it gets corrected. Otherwise... nah. And nobody expects $40 tips on every order. That is ridiculous.

It seems like you have a huge issue with dashers in general given your countless comments to threads with the "and don't forget to tip over $10" line.

I can't speak for other dashers, only myself. I call support for my customers even when it isn't on me to do so. When they text me that the restaurant messed up their order after I've delivered it. When they text me after I've completed the delivery they wanted a drink too even though they didn't order one. Dealing with some of you, as customers, is a very agonizing experience.

Most of my customers are wonderful. But I have had several that expect extras, above and beyond service, want to nag me to death the whole time I'm driving and can't even bother to tip appropriately. And when I say that, no, I am not expecting a $10 tip... unless the customer lives over 10 miles from said restaurant in which case, yeah, you bet your ass I expect that it's common courtesy or I decline it.

Wanna talk about entitled drivers? I think a ton of customers need to look in the mirror when speaking about entitlement. You are not entitled to someone else's labor for free.

I always do. In cases like this, however, you're screaming into the void. Language barrier. Multiple drivers. At a certain point just call support.

Here's this guy again

We appreciate you just as much! Customers like you are wonderful!

You're wrong here, too. If the customer cancels the order because of a merchant problem, they will, in fact, get their refund. There is a difference in "I don't want it" and "store cannot make it."

As a driver, I will always initiate the cancelation by contacting support, however, the customer is still going to have to talk to support too, regardless.

In this situation, there was a clear obstacle of a language barrier between OP and the Dasher. OP stated it was reassigned multiple times. He could have contacted support himself and got this all wrapped up quick.

Idk why you're replying to everyone so hot with so much anger on this thread, calm down.

American food is a thing, yes.

Starbucks employees actually make very decent money.
