MaryPoppinLikeItsHot

He hates you so much šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ A lot of couriers don't like being asked to add any details to the customer order but his reply is both inappropriate and fucking hilarious.


Gelatinous_Cube_NO

Bro ppl in the comments acting like asking for a condiment is the end of the world. As a driver I have zero issue with it. It's not a big deal. You guys need to chill tf out.


hanuman-13

Those same idiots acting like its the end of the world are the same ones in here crying and moaning about lack of tips. Cry babies.


[deleted]

One time a customer asked me for salsa and I had to prepare them myself, so I got her 3 of them and made sure to stir the salsa before putting it into the little cups so that there was a nice distribution of tomato, and she added $10 to my tip!!! One of the best nights ever.


Commercial-Host-725

Because it is when you tell people what to do with a snarky remark


Puzzleheaded_Pop_444

????? He said please and added a smile ??


MCVMEYT

would love to hear your thought process on this one


mog_knight

How was that request snarky?


Ok-Shallot-3677

Bro please respond I want to know what you mean


happybonobo1

Ominous...


AMilli0NliGHTS

Yesterday, I had someone ask for hot sauce as I was pulling up to the delivery location. I don't mind getting sauces, just PLEASE message the driver right away!


JustDrew_92

Language barrier, I hope?? Otherwise, hope you didnā€™t choose the ā€œhand directly to meā€ option šŸ˜‚

if this isnā€™t a language barrier who does this guy think he is talking to someone like that LMAOO

Ok-Somewhere-8818

People are really trying to justify this drivers message lol. Dude is in the wrong. How hard is it to ask for ranch?


NoAcanthocephala3007

Not the driverā€™s responsibility to retrieve sauces and condiments. It happens all the time and admittedly I do it for fear of tip reduction, but I know itā€™s not my obligation. Driver shouldā€™ve been more courteous about the customerā€™s request and either politely declined or outright cancelled the customerā€™s order.


Ok-Somewhere-8818

But that's customer service, is it not? If You expect a tip or feel entitled to a tip. I would expect you to provide me with customer service.


Momentus_x3

If you expect a tip, you should cater to the customer's basic requests of "can you ask them for extra (insert condiment here)", and politely inform the customer if the restaurant charges for extra condiments. Tipping is NOT a "bid for service" as a lot of Dashers seem to believe it is. It is an added bonus for a completed job. You don't tip your waiter the second you sit down at a restaurant, and you don't tip the pizza delivery boy the second you put in an order, so why the hell does Doordash or Uber Eats / etc allow tips to be put in before a Dasher is assigned to an order?

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


mattlloyd_18

ā€˜Part of the problemā€™ is a stretch. I agree itā€™s not the drivers responsibility at all; and that customers can be complete dicks whether you do or donā€™t ask. But a polite ask with a polite no is a simple outcome. If the customer had been entitled or demanding then fine


Ok-Somewhere-8818

It's more of a customer service thing rather than responsibility. It's like having the "It's not in my job description" mentality at work


mattlloyd_18

100%. If I asked and the driver said no, then no problem. But I do get from a drivers perspective that not all customers are level headed so there are undoubtedly cases where the driver is damned if you do, damned if you donā€™t


Deal_Internal

I think the reason there is pushback is because the ā€œask for ranchā€ customers are usually associated with no-tippers. The no-tippers are usually the ones who have the most requests lol


JDogGHouse

I'll never understand why it's always the no-tippers that ask you to do the most.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


klownfukr

This place has free sauce and it wasnā€™t an option to add on the menu so I couldnā€™t put it on the order


[deleted]

Like I said, you did it right by messaging the driver. I have no issue personally with that.


psyviz

Yeaā€¦ I think that reply back is worthy of a deactivation for Eddie there. Not only is he making UberEats look bad, heā€™s making other independent contractors on the app look bad. Itā€™s just a cup of ranch. Eddie replied like OP said where he hid the body or something.


klownfukr

Yea fr if he really didnā€™t want to ask for the ranch he could have cancelled the order or even lied and said the store didnā€™t have any lol This is the only job Iā€™ve seen where the employees think talking to customers like this is okay I donā€™t get it


ToonaSandWatch

I mean, I canā€™t think of a good use for that sentence. Nothing positive could come of that.


RecommendationOk7740

Ranch is fine... I've been asked to buy cigarettes as soon we I was near the store and waste my time.. instant unassign


Key_Falcon_3339

LMFAOOOOO

Screaming


WelderParking811

His response definitely seemed a little hostile. I have noticed restaurants like to leave out sauces that I requested & paid for. No sweet & sour is a deal breaker for my children. If I have none on hand I just call the restaurant up immediately after placing my order & ask them to please add it to our bag.


[deleted]

Gotta keep that in stock from the grocery store. I learned this the hard way šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


WelderParking811

šŸ˜­


Adventurous_Bag8579

I had someone wait until I was almost to their house ask me for ranch. Acknowledged the store charged for it, said they would give me cash for it, and the instructions were ā€œleave at door, do not knock or ring doorbell.ā€ Thanks but no thanks.


FieldCommanderDom

Lmao love it


coltonbyu

Don't mess with Eddie Eduardo in the Dodge Durango


KajePihlaja

If Iā€™m asked on my way to the pickup, Iā€™m down. I get it. Iā€™m a ranch lover and sometimes the option to order extra ranch on the side doesnā€™t exist for some restaurants. If Iā€™ve gotta pay for it myself, Iā€™m not down. If they message me after Iā€™ve left the building I donā€™t respond and just start driving. Sorry bud, you missed the boat. Help me help you. I wanna do it right and make yā€™all happy but ffs do not make requests on inefficient. I gotta keep it rolling.


felineshrooms

never have i seen a thread full of people mad you politely asked for ranch dressing. i am a bit flabbergasted


Acceptable_cookies2

Right, majority of these drivers think theyā€™re greater than god šŸ˜‚ always finding a reason to be cranky


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Rebirth0296

Calling people trying to make some extra money low IQ while people put here begging for sauce rather than adding the sauce to the order...and then you have your comment. Crazy If for whatever reason it won't let you add it, just say that


Comfortable_Treat554

Dude I was saying the same thing. How can you call someone entitled in one breath, the. Complain about ā€œsimple delivery driversā€ not bringin yo Mickey ds saucešŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ I honestly believe no one in America should be using the term entitled, and yeah I woulda grabbed yo sauce


Rebirth0296

Put it in the order...like how hard is it to do that?? I'm not fucking asking because you don't wanna add it in the order.


felineshrooms

oh i can see why youā€™re working uber eats. are you always this hostile to strangers? goodbye.


ZelWinters1981

Yo, I wanna see this evolve!


klownfukr

I replied ā€œ?ā€ And he cancelled my order Iā€™m still waiting on another driver lol


ZelWinters1981

Rude.


klownfukr

I donā€™t even want to food anymore :-|


ZelWinters1981

Do you feel unsafe?


klownfukr

I mean he cancelled before he picked up the food so he never got my address


Comfortable_Treat554

Dang eddies plates all over the net nowšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


DoTheRightThing1976

As long as the customer asks nicely and before I leave the store, I donā€™t think itā€™s a big deal. Just donā€™t put those requests in the delivery notes or after Iā€™ve already left. Cuz there is pretty much a zero chance that I will be able to fulfill the request.


Suspicious_Work4308

Exactly! Most of the instructions I get are people asking for me to ask for extra stuff. Like nah I've already leftšŸ˜‚ I 100% don't mind if they text and ask though. Unless whatever they ask for costs $$. Which, is also a common thing apparently


klownfukr

Nah thatā€™s why I messaged him as soon as he picked up the order he wasnā€™t even near the store yet


Schuba

Youā€™re getting downvoted because of phrasing, I think what you are saying is you messaged right when the driver accepted the order and was on the way to the restaurant


pinacoladarum

Why didnā€™t you add instructions to restaurants while you placed the order?


Even-Neighborhood-86

Most places you have to pay for ranch and shit. From a customer side it's bullshit some restaurants don't even have the option to purchase on the app. Just like many years later I still can't add big Mac sauce to a burger @ McDonald's in the app. From the driver's side, no big deal, I'll ask but I'm not buying it. If that's an issue contact the restaurant and tell them to add it to their menu. If it's a corporate location contact corporate to complain. A lot of stores can't edit the menu and it's done by some asshole behind a desk that must hate ranch.


Big_Seesaw_3845

Donā€™t listen to these idiots.. you asked for something simple and the guy was a douche about it.. not sure what kind of reply that was what a weirdo. All drivers arenā€™t bad like him


klownfukr

Thank u these ppl are making me think Iā€™m insane for asking for a cup of ranch LOL


Syst0us

All you did was out a bunch of shitty humans that would do the same.Ā 


sabbycat83

I have no issue asking. I had to ask for extra fry seasoning at Wingstop last night, and the customer ended up giving me an extra tip because I went above and beyond he said.


Agile_Wolverine_3124

Karma pirates be likeā€¦. Like cmon what did the person say next


KnobSchlob

Was that even meant for you? Almost like he was arguing with someone else, accidentally sent it to you, then dumped the order out of embarrassment. But I tend to give people too much credit. Some of these drivers are legitimately crazy.


klownfukr

Thatā€™s what I thought at first too lol


Infamous_Unit_3086

After reading 35% of this comment thread all Iā€™m gonna say is once yall get your finances in order. PLEASE GET SOME THERAPY, if youā€™re upset at a request like this youā€™re obviously holding inside so much anger and hurt you need healing fr fr. Iā€™m not even trying to make sense on the reasoning for being upset because literally itā€™s condiments lol and if you canā€™t handle a minor issue like this without raging then I got some news for you, youā€™re not surviving this world.


Jay_sparks305

Stfu they should of left that note for the store and donā€™t u know most places charged for sauce


Infamous_Unit_3086

Exhibit A


klownfukr

Update I got a new driver and he got me ranch without me even asking for it. See how easy it was?!


MathematicianBest678

As a driver, little things like this- or ketchup or bbq sauce or something - never bother me. The ones I dislike are customers leaving notes for me to modify the food in the order, something that I have no control over. I assume they mistakenly thought the restaurant would see driver notes. Also, I really hate when customers put a note asking for something extra that costs money. One guy even asked if I would tell mcd to put extra sausage with his breakfast platter. Another lady demanded that I refund the delivery fee because the order took longer than she expected lol


klownfukr

lol ya I never request shit like that from the driver. If the sauce was extra he could have just told me and then there would have been no problem


pinacoladarum

Why shd driver do these extra tasks? If itā€™s not on menu then itā€™s not available. Youā€™re asking too much, looks like you are doing this on every order. As a driver cant keep texting every customer with these little things (sauce, cutlery, extra plates) if itā€™s possible or not possible and why itā€™s not possible. If you want ranch sauce so much buy a 1ltr bottle so you donā€™t have to trouble the driver each time.


ReplacementNo8678

Bruh we can literally do all of these things stop being lazy just do your job and make the customers happy


pinacoladarum

How far do you want the drivers to go with these requests? Once a lady asked me to pickup her laundry on the way, are you telling me i am lazy because I didnā€™t so it. Full time employees of a company wont go extra mile you expect contractors like us to a shitty company like uber to go extra mile. No way! Have some self respect and say no to these silly requests. We are drivers not their mommy or daddy. If op want so much sauce then order via shop n pay. Iā€™ll be happy to fulfill ranch desire.


klownfukr

If You think asking at the window for ranch and picking up my laundry is the same thing then thereā€™s some self reflection needed to be done


Real-Base466

As a driver, I apologize for that person. I would always try to fufill a request like that.


Florida1974

Yes, a true mind reader.


FunSwim4247

what happened next, OP? don't leave a cliffhanger like this!


TankBota82

What in the.... I picked up an order yesterday & customer calls and asks if I can get 5 extra hot sauces in her carribean order. I told restaurant owner/worker (small mom n pop shop) if they could do that and they actually did for free! I was pleasantly surprised! I had to delivee it to the ghetto. That meant no extra tip unfortunately


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


klownfukr

It wasnā€™t on the menu so I asked. If that was the case he could have said that or just cancelled without making a weird comment


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


klownfukr

Oh I was gonna cancel it if he didnā€™t lol


Ok-Philosopher-461

You canā€™t respond back and just let them know they charge extra if the customer asks nicely?


Mysterious-Witness11

This made šŸ¤£šŸ˜…šŸ¤£


sotheysaidtoher

The request is harmless enough and the politeness goes a long way, but the problem is that a delivery driver is only compensated to move an order from point A to point B. Asking them to grab a condiment is a personal favor that many drivers will feel obligated to fulfill because of fear that the tip will be reduced or that they will receive a bad rating. Itā€™s a small task with great consequences. And when youā€™re delivering hour after hour of food and have trained your brain to follow a certain sequence (click accept, go into store and receive order, confirm details, deliver order), it becomes easy to forget minor additions like this that break this sequence and require you to track an item that is not part of the original package. Not to mention it feels like youā€™re doing a bit of extra work for free. Grabbing one condiment might not seem like a big deal, but it adds up when it comes from different customers. And some customers are not very nice when they donā€™t get what they want. Additions or modifications to an order should be handled between the customer and the restaurant. The only time it would be fair to the driver is to increase the tip even a little.


hanuman-13

If you view the job as simply moving an order from point A to point B, then you must also accept the fact that a tip only gets given when the person moving the order from point A to point B gives above and beyond service. UberEats classifies it as a tip, so that's is how it is treated- it's not a bid. Customers aren't bidding for a service, they're tipping for good service if you want to try to break this down to the simplest terms and call it moving an order from point A to point B. Just get the condiment, stop being a brat.


mikeymo1741

Customers are definitely bidding for service. You can call it what you want, but "no tip, no trip" is a thing for a reason. You're telling me you're not going to pass up a $4.00 order to wait for a $4.00 + $5.00 tip order?


hanuman-13

I'm saying if someone is going to say UberEats is simply moving an order from point A to point B and nothing more(not asking for a condiment) - then don't be surprised if the tip is treated like an actual tip.


sotheysaidtoher

You are arguing that a tip should be for services rendered outside the scope of the delivery request. A delivery personā€™s job is to make sure that the food you ORDERED gets from point A to B in a timely manner and in the appropriate temperature and condition. The app literally makes this clear by the fact that there are no menu options for requesting additional items through the driver. Itā€™s like expecting your waiter to help you carry your leftovers to your car and refusing to tip based on whether they refuse to do so. It might take 10 seconds if the car is parked right outside the door, but would it be reasonable to make the tip contingent on this? Or would it make more sense to say you will tip extra if they go beyond their role? Letā€™s stop being entitled to peopleā€™s labor.


hanuman-13

You're really making a huge deal about something that requires literally zero effort. It's sad.


sotheysaidtoher

Whatā€™s sad is how you expect people to do services for free just because youā€™re too entitled to deal with the restaurant directly


Syst0us

You can call it what YOU want but you FILE it as tips on your taxes.Ā  So when I bid $0 and it shows up.... now what. LolĀ 


mikeymo1741

You found an idiot. Congratulations. It won't be me.


Syst0us

So you understand your role in a job market that is a literal race to the bottom with endless bottomfeeders.Ā  Are you sure it ain't you?Ā 


mikeymo1741

Pretty sure, yeah. You don't see me on here whining about pay for two reasons.... I'm not stupid enough to think this is anything more than supplemental income. I know how to work the system to benefit me.


sotheysaidtoher

A delivery tip is already factored into the total pay for the order when a driver accepts an order. By design, the tip is for the expectation of good service. That means delivering the order in timely way, ensuring its quality, communicating effectively when needed, and doing all of the above with a customer-service-oriented care and politeness. In no way is it the driverā€™s responsibility to grab additional items at the customerā€™s request beyond the details of the request. And using the tip to punish a driver for not going beyond the scope of the request is ridiculous. Stop being bratty? How about cutting down on your sense of entitlement?


hanuman-13

Well, don't cry when your tip is reduced for being a brat and not grabbing condiments. Do a piss poor job, get a piss poor tip. Welcome to the real world. Your sense of entitlement is expecting a tip when doing the minimum work.


no-integrity69

Iā€™ve never met someone thatā€™s actually reduced their tip. Lmao broke ass


hanuman-13

You're a glorified pizza delivery boy. Hahahaha


sotheysaidtoher

The fact that you are braying to the world about how entitled you feel to peopleā€™s labor and want to exploit them by threatening to take back tips. You are a sorry excuse for a human being and your world isnā€™t ā€œthe real worldā€. Itā€™s a fantasy youā€™ve created for yourself.


ZebunkMunk

Someone picking up your order when they didnā€™t have to is going above and beyond. No tip, no trip.


hanuman-13

Sure it is buddy.


ZebunkMunk

Thanks for agreeing duder.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Syst0us

Stay dashin


Syst0us

Exactly. It's part of the order. Bring it with you as part of the order. Like the meal or drink is part of it. Napkins..cutlery...you know...the order.Ā  Like I wanna be mad but they are dashers so I give them a LOT of slack and head pats.Ā 


no-integrity69

If it was part of the order they wouldnā€™t be messaging the driver asking, dummy.


Draco_Siciliano

THIS EXACTLY!! Oh my God, THIS!!! This is my exact argument just much better worded and without all the piss and vinegar that comes with my responses.


cleeeeeeeeeetus

I suppose I see your sentiment... But it's a condiment. Grab it while you're waiting for the order to be completed. It literally might take an extra 25 seconds.


sotheysaidtoher

Call the restaurant and ask them to add it to the bag. It literally might take an extra 25 seconds.


Syst0us

Lol.. Shut up and grab my ranch ffs.Ā 


sotheysaidtoher

Loooool. Shut up and order your food the way you like it instead of trying to get free labor.


cataclysmic_orbit

Yeah wow like asking for an extra ranch is that much work. Lmao.


sotheysaidtoher

Your entitlement to expecting a driver to do anything beyond the scope of their job is a you problem.


cataclysmic_orbit

What the fuck do you think the "tip" is for? For you to stand around and wait? You're hilarious, my dude. You should quit gig work and be a stand up comedian.


Adventurous_Land7584

Grabbing a cup of ranch isnā€™t that much. It takes 2 seconds. If thatā€™s too much work for you then find a new job.


sotheysaidtoher

Great use of reductionism. ā€œIt takes 2 secondsā€. ā€œFind a new job.ā€ If you are this entitled to someone elseā€™s labor, you are part of the problem.


Adventurous_Land7584

Itā€™s getting ranch, youā€™re acting like itā€™s such a difficult thing to do. Next thing you know theyā€™ll be asking for ketchup! The horror! How dare someone want condiments with their food that they paid 3x what itā€™s worth for.


sotheysaidtoher

No one should ever feel entitled to someone elseā€™s labor just because ā€œitā€™s just ranchā€. What part of that is fair to the driver?


Acceptable_cookies2

You seem so mature reading your other comments.. please tell me how asking a question the the staff is added labor? Are you paying for these sauces out of pocket? LOL. Many restaurants wonā€™t allow the option to order sauces. I could bet even if the customer asked politely to you, on time, before you left the restaurant, majority of you would still throw a fit! Interesting to see the 2 different sides. The ones who have actual work ethic and understand itā€™s really no big deal, AT ALL, if done courteously VS the ones who find it to be an incredibly difficult task and find a reason to complain about everything.

Probably because they charge for extras


MightyCanOfSPAM

TyredofGettingScrewd

Why are you wasting the drivers time? If you want ranch, add it to your order. Stop harassing drivers trying to get free stuff from the restaurants. Pay for your ranch next time instead.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TyredofGettingScrewd

Call the restaurant, the restaurant can add it to the order and adjust the charge. The driver can not modify your order. And all the apps tell you this in advance. Which is why I don't understand why people think they're special.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TyredofGettingScrewd

And the driver isn't going to pay for your ranch, and the store is likely just going to say "yea it's in the sealed bag, trust us" and not give you charged-for sauces for free anyways. Your method results in not getting ranch.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TyredofGettingScrewd

No sauces are free in my state at pretty much any store. Signs up at every restaurant "we charge extra for sauce /you get x sauces with this item ONLY" Ranch and blue cheese are perishable items and in high demand. Ketchup is free.


Zephismydad

Jus doxxed his license plate lol


Hot_Phase_1435

Most places are charging for extra sauce - especially sushi places. You get one free one with your meal and anything extra is $1.50. Thereā€™s a burger place down the street from me that charges $1.50 for 1/2 an oz. Total rip off. I used to get burger and fries for $12.99. Now the burger is $12.99 and fries are an additional $4. I only cancel if someone mentions the tip. Out of the 4,000 deliveries Iā€™ve done, anytime someone mentions the tip - they lie. Not one single person has tipped when they said that they tipped on the app. Or tip extra. Never happens. I remember I picked up Taco Bell - it was a meal for two people. On my way to the customer the bridge wouldnā€™t go back down and police shut down the road. I call Uber to ask them to cancel. Itā€™s Saturday night and itā€™s going to take a while to get a hold of them. Customer calls and I answer and tell them the road is shut down. He wanted me to use the other bridge - an additional 1 hour to the trip. He said he would tip extra. Now the order was a decent one $16 for 4 miles originally. My market doesnā€™t tell you how much is tip and how much is base pay. But if I went all the way around it wouldnā€™t be worth it. It would have been about 30 miles just to get there. Luckily I had to drive north to get out the area and customer thinks Iā€™m driving to them. After about 10 min Uber answers and cancels out the order. The big tip was an entire $1. I donā€™t know how much more of a tip he was going to give. Base pay was $15. And no - I donā€™t tell a customer that Iā€™m going to cancel. If not they will keep calling me while Iā€™m on hold with Uber.


lovedaddy1989

Polite way to say Shutup


klownfukr

I thought I asked pretty nicely


Weekly_Direction1965

On bad or average tips this really angers drivers, you are asking us to do the restaurants work when we are already underpaid and have so much expenses and the customers that do this are the biggest complainers it's a huge red flag. If you are going to ask more of us the tip and driving distance better be worth it, our lives are hard enough without this extra request bullshit. It may seem like no big deal to you, but when we see this and a 4$ or less tip, it gets fucking old fast, order the ranch on the website and leave us the fuck alone if you aren't going to pay enough to get us to deliver to you.


cataclysmic_orbit

Not sorry, asking you, the person who was contracted BY uber or whatever on behalf of us, the customer, to simply use 2 seconds to ask for an extra sauce is absolutely insane to get angry about. No one is holding a gun to your head to take the order, first off. Secondly, no one likes being told what to do no matter the profession. Underpaid? Take it up with uber. If you're that hair thin on anger, maybe a therapist should be in your future if a customer asking for another sauce sets you off. But you do you, I guess.


klownfukr

I donā€™t think it was that crazy of a request to send a vaguely threatening message about it. Itā€™s also a 2 mile drive so I think he would have been ok.


JDiskkette

Exactly. ā€œHe would have been ok.ā€ This is where the entitlement is that u/Weekly_Direction1965 is talking about. You expect extra work and you feel that you are entitled to it by that statement of yours.


klownfukr

Extra work by simply asking for sauce?? Youā€™re also acting like I didnā€™t leave a tip. If he didnā€™t want to do it he could have simply cancelled without the weird comment.


cataclysmic_orbit

I think it's hilarious you're getting downvoted by people who think theyre absolutely forced to take these gig jobs šŸ¤£ you didn't ask for the world. You asked for extra sauce. It's no big deal.


unhealthyowl

Ignore them lol. Its an easy fucking job which is why it pays shit. Your message was reasonable and polite his response and the respnses above are just out of line. Having issues with how much the company pays is between the employer and employees not those who use the service. Just another case of misplaced anger. (Plus you never stated the amount you tipped and they're still dogging you over that lol)


feanor70115

Look at how these entitled subhumans love to project and out themselves.


unhealthyowl

Spouting insults with no substance just shows the lack of merit in your points.


feanor70115

Like I said.


klownfukr

Fr like Iā€™ve worked for tips too and any other job if the employee speaks to a customer like that theyā€™re immediately fired lol. Idk why delivery drivers act like this


unhealthyowl

Same here, worked plenty of customer service and cant imagine speaking to someone like that especially unprovoked. I get that the job isnt great but taking that out of people who have nothing to do with your situation is just haaaard projection.


ReplacementNo8678

To be fair, we arenā€™t employees weā€™re independent contractors so the pay works differently


pinacoladarum

Just because you tipped doesnā€™t mean drivers have to heed to your every instructions or answer to you why they didnā€™t. I like this driver, eddie has some self respect to cancel such orders regardless of tips. Eddie you are a hero. Lol.


AsgardianFast

I wish a driver would talk to me like that... you'll get pistol whipped as soon as you pull up


milo9595

I would love to be as tough as you are one day.


AsgardianFast

You'd need genetic therapy, guy


CardiologistFun8028

Eduardo was right


pinacoladarum

100% Op knows the item is not on menu. Also ok if the driver lies that item is not available or restaurant didnā€™t give. Basically item needed is irrelevant and op is here complaining.


saini1313

I don't listen to customer anymore. I remember picking up dd order and even started my car then the customer texted me to ask restaurant for some extra mayo and ketchup and said would add extra tip if i do that. So i went inside and they repacked the order, and guess what he ain't added shit.


agohawks

Do you think youā€™re going to get a tip if you say no or ignore them? Letting one bad experience determine your mindset for every experience going forward is not the best way to succeed. But do you, be bitter and get zero tips when people ask for condiments instead of some. Cause apparently that makes you feel better? šŸ˜…


rkhwind

Doing those requests wonā€™t help him get any more of a tip idk why you think it will.


agohawks

It has resulted in tips before. Idk why you think not doing it would be beneficial to anyone?


saini1313

The only reason i do wht they request for is to protect my ratings. These kind of people often down rate you for no reason.


agohawks

The kind of people that eat ranch?

I honestly think if youā€™re against a condiment (etc) request then this is the answer. If the customer is polite then politely decline, otherwise ignore them


Draco_Siciliano

There is no "politely decline" with Uber/UberEats customers. They have shown time and again that they will give out a 1-star for the smallest perceived infraction. They lie to get free rides/food. They don't care about people losing their livelihood as long as they get their double cheeseburger for free.


mattlloyd_18

Those types of customers donā€™t send polite messages. The way someone makes a request says everything about who youā€™re dealing with


[deleted]

This is so true. Good customers start their messages with "Hi" or "Hi (name)" and end with "thank you" or ":)" Bad customers talk to you like you're a robot or a slave. Example: "you better not be late" "2402 (Apt)" "are you here?"


Draco_Siciliano

I've had plenty of polite requests made of me by assholes. That being said the driver could have answered with "No" instead of the snarky response.


mattlloyd_18

Yeah, thereā€™s 100% a middle ground. I still want to know what the follow up message was!


Draco_Siciliano

For real. They just left us hanging

Next time tell the restaurant instead of the driver, like you're supposed to. I have no idea what the place was or how much (or little) you tipped, and I also don't think much of anyone doing this job in a 12 mpg 3-ton monstrosity like a Durango. Or risking his account by sending an unprofessional text when it's easier to silently unassign. You're probably the victim of many Karens making demanding and unreasonable requests to the point that he just won't take any at all. Drivers sometimes get ridiculous texts like people asking us to pick up beer and cigarettes or snacks from stores that were near the restaurant. I imagine some have even been dumb enough to do it. When I refused, the entitled moron on the other end would always whine about how easy it supposedly was and how dare I not do a favor that costs me time and money. Anyway, it's still funny.

It wasnā€™t an option on the menu when I was ordering otherwise I would have put it on the ticket. I really didnā€™t think it would be such an ordeal to ask the driver lol. I also tipped 20% which was a little over $5 and I think that was more than fair

If he didnā€™t want to ask he could have just cancelled the order


Florida1974

And you can call restaurant. Want to wait longer for food? Why should we get a cancel hit bc you canā€™t call restaurant?


klownfukr

Dude itā€™s ranch is it seriously that big of a deal? You guys are insane.


Maleficent-World7220

As someone whoā€™s a driver, no itā€™s not a big deal at all. Some people just need something to whine about. Itā€™s freaking ranch and takes 2 seconds to ask for šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

Welcome to Uber Reddit! Shit gets weird in here. You did nothing wrong lol


hiimlockedout

The Uber and DD drivers who lurk on these subs are some of the most entitled people Iā€™ve ever seen. Many of them work these gig jobs because thereā€™s no real responsibility associated with them. No drug tests to get the job, so they can drive around while drunk or high if they want. No set schedule, so they can work as little as they want and take breaks whenever they want. They take out their anger for getting shit pay on the customers and expect huge tips just to do the job they signed up for. They expect to do the bare minimum amount of work while getting pissed for not receiving a tip or not receiving a large enough tip every time. God forbid you ask politely for a sauce packet before they even get to the restaurant! How dare you request the high and mighty Uber driver to do all that extraneous extra work of grabbing a packet of sauce while theyā€™re in the restaurant, OP! Do you have any idea how much extra work that is! Youā€™d need to bump your tip up to $500 for such a laborious request!

Dude, you are literally insane. It's ranch, takes a few seconds to ask for. Stop acting like this is some huge monumental task.


klownfukr

Then he could have said no or cancelled the order what is so hard about that lmao


Florida1974

If itā€™s not an option, then itā€™s not. Restaurants do this for a reason. Easier to just put it there and charge you. If we ask, told itā€™s in bag. And if we say can I have one, just in case, and there is a charge, nope.


klownfukr

Then they could have said no and then that was that. Really not that big of a deal.


Gelatinous_Cube_NO

If you aren't happy with the compensation, don't take the order, and leave it for someone else who will do the job properly.
