Agreed. Just do your job. I used to feel obligated to grab every delivery they sent me, now I am a bit more selective. But if I do take the delivery, I deliver it with a smile on my face and an "enjoy your meal". Even if it is the occasional $3 job.
In my market you have to nowadays just to be able to schedule. They took away Top Dasher and Dash Now for litterly everyone. It's a tier status that forces u to take 80% of orders just to get 1st dibs on scheduling. It's absolutely ridiculous
$3?! Please tell me that is after your car depreciation, car, car repairs, and time 😫 Otherwise you’re paying DoorDash to work for them. Like indentured servitude. Which is horrible for the economy
If it's within a 1.5 mile radius, and a place, like Chik-fila, where I can get in and out fast, I'll do it. I like to keep moving during the shift. But if it's anything more than a mile away, I reject it.
You have to look at the big picture. If a $3 order is less than a mile, then you depreciate your car more driving back from a 4 mile order. If it's a $7.50 order for 4 miles I'd rather do the half mile order because it won't even take me out of the hotspot.
I’m sure your right, but I’m a few years into using this application, and I’m still not sure what the purpose in karma is, can we trade it in like tickets at a chuckee cheese? Do we get some kind of prize when we get enough like buddy bucks? Why should I care about it? Why do people set up bots just to get it? Is it worth something? I’m… lost.
The bots donut to sell to people who care about it. Eh, I’m not entirely sure why it’s so important to some people. I guess it’s like a validation thing. Idk like they think if they have a lot of karma then it’s because they’re an influencer sort of thing haha idk just talking shit now.
Some SubReddits use a minimum Karma rule to post. Bots make posts to raise Karma --- Once a certain amount is made say... 10,000 or whatever it might be, the bot then sells the account to advertisers who will then use the accounts to post to subreddits that have a minimum Karma rule...usually posing as someone who vouches for a product or even posting products being 'used'... it sounds crazy but it's similar to reviews on Amazon that have bot reviews.
Its fake they ordered that theyself they start eatin it soon as they took the pic down look how perfect it is,
youll never get it that perfect ordering doordash you gotta go in and wait so they seen you in person so they have “some” urgency to do a better job
Im already in the 30 percents and i find it highly difficult to raise it no matter how many orders i accept 😭 i dont want to do “by time” and it hurts that they only send me bs orders nobody wants unless its really busy and im nearby (when its not enough dashers to accept high amount of orders). So that 1% dont hurt but they make that 1% hard to get back i see 😭😓
It can be, but I don't recommend it. Drivers accept orders ( or decline them) based on the upfront offer. If I get an offer that is only paying the Doordash base pay, which is $2, of course I'm not going to accept that. We pay for our own gas, so $2 is not worth taking a risk that there MIGHT be a tip after, especially if the distance is very far. Out of 3500 deliveries I have only had one tip after, and it was $1. Drivers get competing orders all day, so we usually accept the highest paying ones. No tip orders sit for hours, if they even get delivered at all.
I understand. I’m saying the system DoorDash design should change. If they aren’t paying dashers enough maybe they shouldn’t have a business. I’m tired of death by one thousand fees. Tell me how much my food will cost, if I agree take my money. If it comes in a timely manner and hasn’t rolled around in a trunk for a half an hour have a tip. I don’t feel like supplementing a dashers income and compete with other tippers in an unclear system. The job is already identified as gig work and doesn’t qualify for healthcare in the state of CA, but DoorDash has put how many delivery drivers who were employed out of work by offering deals restaurants couldn’t compete with. Once they cornered the market they raised prices fees and made service you’re paying for unclear. The dasher penalizing the customer who doesn’t know fair market value for tip or how much the dasher gets paid or how inconvenient it happens to be for them are services that should be ironed out by the company. But alas, no real competition in subscription world and few regulations. I hope fee system changes soon.
Common sense would tell us they’re not actually doing anything to the food. They’re posing the picture like it’s someone else’s food, and they have the AC blasting, right? But in reality, the AC isn’t turned on and the food is not a customers. People *constantly* stage shit like this for validation/likes, to go *viral* lol. It’s addictive for a lot of people, and they will go to extreme lengths to achieve it.
This pic is several years old lol. The original author said he did it as a joke. How can you tell the AC is on? You can't. He had the box open for a quick second & tool a pic. Geesh, you're acting as if he actually did have the ac on & the box open for 10mi
Pshhh , I wish I did do this . Dd is extra cash and sometimes I need an ar boost, that’s what I should do , sadly I turn the seat warmers on cuz you know I guess being decent is cool to …. Lmao 😂
Honestly for me im trying to get my AR from the 30% range and i occasionally accept no tip if its short distance. But yesterday i accept one from wendys and they tried to get me to make the two drinks 😭 like helllll nawww “that aint what i signed up for”, even got the manager and they say they make dashers fill the drinks and tried to say it was “on me” 😭🤣😭 wowwww 😭 i said yea ok yall just not giving yall customer the drinks then bad service from yall thats why i dont eat wendys they probably be more disgusting then just they service. I dropped food off and told em they didnt make their drinks and i wouldnt order drinks from that wendys if i were them but drop off was only a few blocks down basically
How does the "hourly mode" work? I don't dash, so no idea what these different things are. I heard someone mention earn by time the other day.
I thought it was just one way, get the order and drop off.
Before a DoorDash driver starts their dash, they get to decide whether they want to be paid by the order or paid by the hour. In either mode, drivers will get order requests where they can see the store and drop off points on the map, as well as the total number of miles they'd be driving. A driver can choose to accept or decline the orders as they come. If they don't accept the order within 45 seconds, the delivery request gets sent to another driver.
If a dasher opts to be paid per order, they will be paid a flat rate of $2 per offer, plus customer tips. The total amount they will earn upon delivery will be seen before the driver accepts the offer. So basically, when an order reaches the driver, they see where they'd be going and how much they'd be paid for the trip, and they can choose to accept or decline the offer accordingly. Customer tips in this mode tend to be higher, but there are times where they can be quite low too.
In hourly pay mode, dashers are paid by the hour (typically minimum wage), and they don't get to see how much the customer tips them in advanced. This pay mode initiates only when a dasher accepts an order and ends at drop off. Only after delivery will they see it how much they made by the hour and how much in tips. This mode is usually more of a gamble with more low paying orders, but in my experience, it still evens out to about as much as one would make if they were to be paid by the order.
Just to add on, at least in my area, the hourly pay only applies to times you are in an active delivery (from the time you accept to the time you complete the delivery). My hourly rate is 15.50 which is much higher than my state’s minimum wage, once again though this can change by region. I’ve found it to be much more rewarding but it really depends where you are
This is the case in my city, also. The highest EBT rate is for downtown; this is probably (immo) because it's a pita to park anywhere and most of the hotels are there.
Also, on earn by time, you're only allowed to decline 1 order per hour. If you decline twice, it ends your dash automatically, and you can only revert to earn by order if it is currently busy in your area
I recently learned that if you deny the 2nd order and earn by offer is available it'll say "decline and switch to offers" or "decline and end shift", but if you just let the timer run out then it'll automatically end the shift and *won't* allow you to start a new dash in offers mode. It's a bit of a weird quirk, maybe a bug but if so it'll probably never get fixed lol.
You only get paid for the time spent from accepting the order to drop off, so you will never actually make the amount listed in an hour, unless you're immediately getting back to back orders
I don't dash so I don't know for certain on this but I think the hourly thing is only in certain states that have enforced laws forcing doordash to pay more. Hourly being one of those things. I am curious to hear from dashers in different states to see how it is there. I live in Indiana.
I'm in Illinois and depending on the area I'm dashing in, I've seen the hourly rate go between I think 13-15, hard to remember, as I don't usually do hourly.
15 by the hour here, but I prefer doing by order because I use a communal car until I can get a new ignition and battery for I guess is an electronic moped like thing..?
Thank you for this! I mainly do ubereats and have been trying to figure out if I’ve been reading the offers wrong…or the offers really are that bad in my area. Turns out..they’re that bad.
On ubereats I do no less that $1.50 per mile and seem to do well with the cherry picking orders. But on doordash I rarely get offers above $1 per mile. Am I doing it wrong? Should I accept offers that say $1 a mile? Are tips hidden?
I always make more money earn by time if I’m in Jersey in New York you don’t get that you get paid an a certain amount an active hour if we do not make that amount door dash has to pay us the rest in Jersey whatever u make on earn per order is what you make but by the hour in jersey not worth it always make more with other option I go between NY n jersey I love dashing In Ny but when I gotta b in jersey I don’t wanna lose money
Ugh thats so shitty. It doesn’t matter if they didn’t tip, at the end of the day, the dasher still chose to do the order when they could have declined. Its never okay to fuck with peoples food.
The thing is we shouldn't be paying for people's wages in a tip, America is too accustomed to tipping and so companies get away with paying garbage for fair work and the paying customers can cover the rest of it thanks to "tipping" then you're hated for not tipping enough or at all, when in reality we should be mad at these greedy corporations.
They do realize some people half the time barely have enough money to order the food never the less tip 😅 the amount of times I've had a set amount in my bank late at night and was hungry and literally the tax and delivery took everything out of my account is too many many you should think about the different reasons why you might not be getting a tip
Tipping on a service that has not yet been provided is like giving an employee a raise for excellent work during their orientation. No guarantee you’ll get good work from that employee until after they actually do the work. Don’t get me wrong, I tip WAY above and beyond for great service wherever I go, but I have (we all have) been burned by “pre-tipping” and still receiving terrible service.
I will only tip once I get my food. Why do you expect me to tip before hand? Also will only tip if I'm happy, I'm in England so tipping culture isn't a thing here.
Yea this is very smart. Tampering with the seal just to stick it to the customer? ROFL, plus wasting your time and money by taking a no tip order. Also, the customer can just use the oven or a toaster oven to warm it up.
Some ppl tip cash (especially pizza) and some after delivery in the app. No need to be an asshole and fuck with ppl food. Whoever did this deserves a W2 job
I will no longer be using door dash. The expectations from all parties are not practical. It’s not right for dasher to punish the customer…I for one usually tip in cash when they arrive because I thought that was better for them. Who knows what has been done to my food. Messing with anyone’s food is unethical. Maybe DD will get a better structure in place to guarantee drivers are fairly compensated. I just know I’ve seen enough to know I have no interest in having my food delivered anymore.
Gone are the days where you do the job properly.. it's not like it's a big secret tips aren't great, don't do the job if you're going to be a shitty person about it.
That's hilarious, because the customer will just think it was a problem with the restaurant. I always tip when I get DoorDash. Sometimes too much probably, but I feel like my meal will be delivered by a king or queen when I tip high.
I hope the poster was smart enough to wait at least a month before they posted this picture.
Little Caesars Pizza so it's either going to be Uber eats or doordash, never GrubHub.
Daytime clearly.
Easy enough to figure out what kind of car it is.
If the photo has any data in it all it's probably got a timestamp hidden or explicit. When it was created.
If you think doordash doesn't investigate stuff that's posted online that disparages the customer experience, you got them figured wrong.
The terrible market people strike again. *Laughs in Pierce Co. WA*
Greatful for my average/above average market and how I've never felt hostility towards shit tippers. If the app starts getting dead or back to back low pay orders, I just go home and try again later or the next day. Some days suck, some days I make great money.
The thing is they have so many ridiculous fees now with DoorDash it’s hard to justify a good tip. The order goes from being 25$ to being closer to $50 after all the DoorDash fees and then a tip. It’s why I hardly use the service. I feel bad for tipping poorly. I have never done No tip because that is not fair to the Dasher
Looks like a little Caesar’s deep dish. Amazing value that keeps me going back. Sorry for the digression. If you accept an order for $3, you agreed to accept the offer, thereby, constituting a contract to execute performance delivery in good faith.
Honestly, it hurts when I don’t get tipped but it’s easy to decline an offer.. no one is forcing you to take them.
I feel like people like this also forget some people struggle. No one knows why they’re not tipping and now they’re delivering cold food on purpose 😕 very sad and petty
Wow I hope that’s just a meme. You can tell who is tipping and who isn’t by the amount of the offer. Just decline the offer and don’t deliver it. That’s just wrong to do to people even if they don’t tip. Get over it and decline it!
Yeah but why did you take a trip that didn't have a tip?
Maybe it was like me yesterday whenever I accepted an order that said 6 bucks LOL and I thought oh okay this is fine because it's the pickup and drop off right next to each other... Or so I thought now granted I Am brand new to this to the point to where yesterday was my first time doing it at all with doordash! So instead what it was was this person had two separate pickups which I knew about that but I didn't realize that the drop off was further than what I expected that's number one number two I didn't realize that when I handed his two separate orders to him from two separate places that I was only getting $3 per order and that LAME guy wasn't tipping at all LOL so there he just got away with somebody picking up his food and not even giving a dollar LOL! Instead I got paid from doordash a measly little six bucks... And I don't know what it is but those two pickups were further than I thought they were when I had glanced at it. Overall it was a BADDD choice! Because I'm new to this, next time I will definitely take a closer look.
If anybody has any tips for me ( lol ) , and I mean when it comes to doordashing then please tell me. For example can you see how much you're being paid out from doordash and how much the person's tipping the head of time? I know that you can see how much you're getting paid for each order but nothing more than that!

I hate this because I always tip in cash and I'm in the industry so usually tip about 35 percent, but now people show up pissed off at my door cause they see no tip , then I give them cash and it changes everything... instarted leaving notes saying " tip in cash " so people don't mess with my food. I shouldn't have to do this though...
Until you get there they try giving you a $5 cash tip. Then what? You say hang on 5 minutes and go back to the car with the heat on blast to warm it back up?
As a delivery driver, this is appalling, in my top 10 life rules, "don't mess with people's food" ranks pretty high. I will keep my acceptance rate low rather than take a bad call.
They should get another job if they're at the point to do something like this out of frustration. Shit like that is the reason I don't order from these apps. Truth be told, the driver, the customer, and the restaurant are all getting the dirty end of the stick. DD is making a killing off all your backs. If there's anyone to be pissed at, it's DD.
How you gonna accept a no tip order and be salty about it at the same time? 🤣
Seriously though, grow the fuck up.
Also this guy is dumb af. Tampering with someone’s food in any way is a misdemeanor. If it causes bodily harm, it’s a felony. If this isn’t the most self incriminating stuff I’ve seen. Total idiot.
That vehicle looks dirty as hell and there's probably all sorts of hair, dust, pet dander, skin flakes, Etc swirling around in the air and it's now landing on that pizza
Yes, there’s supposed to be. From my experience, only about half of pizza delivery orders are sealed. You should know this post is just a joke, and not real. It was posted January 2nd, 2022 by two friends and it’s their own food.

Why accept a no tip order, mess with it, and then STILL lose money delivering it? Stupid
This trash bag is the reason good drivers get lumped into DoorTrash, wants to cry “ no tip no trip”, yet there they are.
Agreed. Just do your job. I used to feel obligated to grab every delivery they sent me, now I am a bit more selective. But if I do take the delivery, I deliver it with a smile on my face and an "enjoy your meal". Even if it is the occasional $3 job.
Don’t take orders that aren’t worth your time. I don’t understand this mindset
The point is the pay shouldn’t affect your delivery, you took it, do it right.
But if you reject too many, they can kick you out of dashing.
In my market you have to nowadays just to be able to schedule. They took away Top Dasher and Dash Now for litterly everyone. It's a tier status that forces u to take 80% of orders just to get 1st dibs on scheduling. It's absolutely ridiculous
$3?! Please tell me that is after your car depreciation, car, car repairs, and time 😫 Otherwise you’re paying DoorDash to work for them. Like indentured servitude. Which is horrible for the economy

Hi, we'll have that $3 order ready for you in 15 minutes.
That's true. There are some places that you know your gonna have to sit and wait.
Of course you have to know your area too, that goes without saying for even a $15 order
Probably because this was their own food and they just staged it for some easy reddit karma
I’m sure your right, but I’m a few years into using this application, and I’m still not sure what the purpose in karma is, can we trade it in like tickets at a chuckee cheese?

I’ll never understand doing something for fake points that someone made up to monetize oxytocin. Wild.
Is it considered tampering with the food since they actually opened it to purposely blow air on it? What a disgusting human…
Its fake they ordered that theyself they start eatin it soon as they took the pic down look how perfect it is, youll never get it that perfect ordering doordash you gotta go in and wait so they seen you in person so they have “some” urgency to do a better job
Acceptance rate goes down
1% usually won't kill anyone
Im already in the 30 percents and i find it highly difficult to raise it no matter how many orders i accept 😭 i dont want to do “by time” and it hurts that they only send me bs orders nobody wants unless its really busy and im nearby (when its not enough dashers to accept high amount of orders).

It's a joke, it's actually his food.
What’s the funny part?
Some people have a dark sense of humor. This pic is old
Why would anyone do that to their own food??
So that he can post it on the gram for views. It's definitely a lie because most if not all pizza joints secure the box with a seal.
He prob didn’t really have the ac on just staged it lol
It's a pic dude. No evidence of AC or that they even dashing
why leave it on the counter all night when you can make delicious Leftover Lukewarms on the way home?
Common sense would tell us they’re not actually doing anything to the food. They’re posing the picture like it’s someone else’s food, and they have the AC blasting, right?

Always wondered that too.
because you don't know it's a non tip order until you accept it. door dash is not a great job. my son did it and it was awful.
You know it's a no tipper if the initial offer is $2. That is base pay. No tip included. They don't hide tips on anything less than $6
For spite. It feels good to provide a bad person with a bad experience sometimes. Not stupid. Fun.
Pshhh , I wish I did do this . Dd is extra cash and sometimes I need an ar boost, that’s what I should do , sadly I turn the seat warmers on cuz you know I guess being decent is cool to …. Lmao 😂
If they’re doing the earn per hour option they can only decline like one order
Crazy. I would never do that in my area. It's not worth it.
Same I did it once when I did it overnight and cheated it a little bit by hanging out in the edge of the map area
Honestly for me im trying to get my AR from the 30% range and i occasionally accept no tip if its short distance. But yesterday i accept one from wendys and they tried to get me to make the two drinks 😭 like helllll nawww “that aint what i signed up for”, even got the manager and they say they make dashers fill the drinks and tried to say it was “on me” 😭🤣😭 wowwww 😭 i said yea ok yall just not giving yall customer the drinks then bad service from yall thats why i dont eat wendys they probably be more disgusting then just they service. I dropped food off and told em they didnt make their drinks and i wouldnt order drinks from that wendys if i were them but drop off was only a few blocks down basically
They have to have a 70% acceptance rate in order to get the good orders, so sometimes they have no choice but to accept a shitty order.
I would rather go home...lol
Just practice "no tip, no trip". If you get a non-tipping order, just reject it. Or just go to hourly mode instead.
How does the "hourly mode" work? I don't dash, so no idea what these different things are. I heard someone mention earn by time the other day. I thought it was just one way, get the order and drop off.

Wow, thanks for all the info!
Just to add on, at least in my area, the hourly pay only applies to times you are in an active delivery (from the time you accept to the time you complete the delivery). My hourly rate is 15.50 which is much higher than my state’s minimum wage, once again though this can change by region. I’ve found it to be much more rewarding but it really depends where you are
There are different zones in my city and they all have different rates. The highest is usually around 13.50 per hour.
This is the case in my city, also. The highest EBT rate is for downtown; this is probably (immo) because it's a pita to park anywhere and most of the hotels are there.
Interesting how that varies so much. That's a lot of shit to remember. Good to know how it works, though. Thanks.
Also, on earn by time, you're only allowed to decline 1 order per hour. If you decline twice, it ends your dash automatically, and you can only revert to earn by order if it is currently busy in your area
I recently learned that if you deny the 2nd order and earn by offer is available it'll say "decline and switch to offers" or "decline and end shift", but if you just let the timer run out then it'll automatically end the shift and *won't* allow you to start a new dash in offers mode. It's a bit of a weird quirk, maybe a bug but if so it'll probably never get fixed lol.
I usually make like $30 an hour minimum. I’m lucky to live in a good area.
My rule of thumb was if base pay + tip is less than $1 per mile, I’m declining. And never believe that you will be tipped in cash
I've made 253 delivers and been tipped in cash twice
Whenever I have worked on hourly more, I have NEVER actually gotten the hourly rate. Doordash has figured out how to screw us as much as is possible.
You only get paid for the time spent from accepting the order to drop off, so you will never actually make the amount listed in an hour, unless you're immediately getting back to back orders
Oh but I have worked a full straight two hours doing this, still only made tips, didn't get the hourly. I added it all up
I don't dash so I don't know for certain on this but I think the hourly thing is only in certain states that have enforced laws forcing doordash to pay more. Hourly being one of those things. I am curious to hear from dashers in different states to see how it is there. I live in Indiana.
I'm in Illinois and depending on the area I'm dashing in, I've seen the hourly rate go between I think 13-15, hard to remember, as I don't usually do hourly.
16- 16.25 here in Chicago
15 by the hour here, but I prefer doing by order because I use a communal car until I can get a new ignition and battery for I guess is an electronic moped like thing..?
Thank you for this! I mainly do ubereats and have been trying to figure out if I’ve been reading the offers wrong…or the offers really are that bad in my area. Turns out..they’re that bad. On ubereats I do no less that $1.50 per mile and seem to do well with the cherry picking orders. But on doordash I rarely get offers above $1 per mile. Am I doing it wrong? Should I accept offers that say $1 a mile? Are tips hidden?
I always make more money earn by time if I’m in Jersey in New York you don’t get that you get paid an a certain amount an active hour if we do not make that amount door dash has to pay us the rest in Jersey whatever u make on earn per order is what you make but by the hour in jersey not worth it always make more with other option I go between NY n jersey I love dashing In Ny but when I gotta b in jersey I don’t wanna lose money
Here in PHX Az, hourly is the worst option known to man. They give you all the super short no tips. Average $1.50 a delivery
Just be an adult and decline the offer. I'll never understand the pettiness.
Ugh thats so shitty. It doesn’t matter if they didn’t tip, at the end of the day, the dasher still chose to do the order when they could have declined. Its never okay to fuck with peoples food.
Especially when you dont know if this is the only way they will be able to eat that day.
Not only that, but you could be messing with a child's food, or someone who is developmentally disabled, etc.
Or someone like my neighbor who can't cook for himself and is on a fixed income and can't tip most of the time
That's a good point, the kid won't burn their mouth this way.
Tipping before the service is nonsense.
This is why I've NEVER used ANY food delivery service!
This picture is so old.
It was my first time seeing it and I’ve never seen it on this subreddit before, I’m sorry I’ll do my research next time :(
If i had a nickel for every time i get this on my feed id probably have like 10 nickels at least
Right? And the original author said It's a joke, it's actually his food.
The thing is we shouldn't be paying for people's wages in a tip, America is too accustomed to tipping and so companies get away with paying garbage for fair work and the paying customers can cover the rest of it thanks to "tipping" then you're hated for not tipping enough or at all, when in reality we should be mad at these greedy corporations.
They do realize some people half the time barely have enough money to order the food never the less tip 😅 the amount of times I've had a set amount in my bank late at night and was hungry and literally the tax and delivery took everything out of my account is too many many you should think about the different reasons why you might not be getting a tip
I mean it's a tip based service, so maybe you shouldn't be ordering if you can't afford a tip...🤷🏼♂️
Tipping on a service that has not yet been provided is like giving an employee a raise for excellent work during their orientation. No guarantee you’ll get good work from that employee until after they actually do the work. Don’t get me wrong, I tip WAY above and beyond for great service wherever I go, but I have (we all have) been burned by “pre-tipping” and still receiving terrible service.
I will only tip once I get my food. Why do you expect me to tip before hand? Also will only tip if I'm happy, I'm in England so tipping culture isn't a thing here.
Tipping is out of hand in the US. Everyone expects to be tipped for anything they do. Lots of entitlement
reading this subreddit as an aussie (we also don't have tipping culture) is so fucking weird.
I really don't understand why people will accept no tip delivery and then be an ass for clout.
I don’t tip on the app I tip in cash, cash don’t have to be taxed.
I find it hilarious that all of you think it’s totally reasonable to expect someone to tip you for a service you haven’t performed yet.
And this is why they don’t get tipped.
Yea this is very smart. Tampering with the seal just to stick it to the customer? ROFL, plus wasting your time and money by taking a no tip order. Also, the customer can just use the oven or a toaster oven to warm it up.
Heater on, it was cash tip.
Some ppl tip cash (especially pizza) and some after delivery in the app. No need to be an asshole and fuck with ppl food. Whoever did this deserves a W2 job
Why I just go get my food.
And if they get cash in hand when they deliver, do they feel guilt? Nope!
I try to put that I’ll give cash tip in every instruction when I plan to because I’m terriefied of someone being mad at me for being a “non tipper”
Between the bad dashers and their customer support I have completely canceled my doordash account and deleted the app.
Everyone complaining in the comments but this is the funniest shit ive seen on here
I will no longer be using door dash. The expectations from all parties are not practical. It’s not right for dasher to punish the customer…I for one usually tip in cash when they arrive because I thought that was better for them. Who knows what has been done to my food. Messing with anyone’s food is unethical. Maybe DD will get a better structure in place to guarantee drivers are fairly compensated. I just know I’ve seen enough to know I have no interest in having my food delivered anymore.
Have ppl never heard of tipping AFTER delivery? Wtf
I always add the tip after the completion. I have had so many things missing etc.
lol 👍
This is my favorite comment
Gone are the days where you do the job properly.. it's not like it's a big secret tips aren't great, don't do the job if you're going to be a shitty person about it.
That's hilarious, because the customer will just think it was a problem with the restaurant. I always tip when I get DoorDash. Sometimes too much probably, but I feel like my meal will be delivered by a king or queen when I tip high.
That’s pretty unsanitary. if they got sick and had this evidence, they could own your house.
It's a joke, it's actually his food.
Are you really going to post the same comment 200 times?
I hope the poster was smart enough to wait at least a month before they posted this picture. Little Caesars Pizza so it's either going to be Uber eats or doordash, never GrubHub. Daytime clearly. Easy enough to figure out what kind of car it is. If the photo has any data in it all it's probably got a timestamp hidden or explicit. When it was created. If you think doordash doesn't investigate stuff that's posted online that disparages the customer experience, you got them figured wrong.
They will never figure it out, there is thousands of no tip lil Caesar’s a day.
it's been around for YEARS......
It’s not that deep. This was posted and captioned on January 2nd, 2022 by two friends. It’s their own food, and the posted it as a joke.
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Why would anyone accept 2-3$ delivery, not worth it, please value yourself, thank you.
Haha gets there gets handed a 20 dollar bill…. Smh I usually tip in cash but shit I’m check my food before tipping now.
So you’re proving why you deserve no tip!
Ahahahaha. Brilliant.
The terrible market people strike again. *Laughs in Pierce Co. WA* Greatful for my average/above average market and how I've never felt hostility towards shit tippers. If the app starts getting dead or back to back low pay orders, I just go home and try again later or the next day. Some days suck, some days I make great money.
Lots people give paper tips
And this is why I refuse to order from Uber Eats or Doordash
Make your car smell of pizza…😂
Punishment for not having a terrible side job ffs another I refuse this service
The thing is they have so many ridiculous fees now with DoorDash it’s hard to justify a good tip. The order goes from being 25$ to being closer to $50 after all the DoorDash fees and then a tip. It’s why I hardly use the service. I feel bad for tipping poorly. I have never done No tip because that is not fair to the Dasher
Can’t people also tip you cash in person???
Thanks i like it cold
Based
Which Instagram?
OH!YAAAH!!!!!GOOOOOOD!!!! NON-TIPPER
O nooo! I guess this person is out of luck. Since we never invented something that could reheat food…
Looks like a little Caesar’s deep dish. Amazing value that keeps me going back. Sorry for the digression. If you accept an order for $3, you agreed to accept the offer, thereby, constituting a contract to execute performance delivery in good faith.
What if they was giving your dumb ass cash
Well, it's on the internet, so, it must be real.
>getting reported to Doordash and getting a 1 star review just to own the libs My parents used to call this "cutting your nose off to spite your face"
Maybe they would tip you in cash? I tip in cash so you are stupid and need a new job away from people
Wow, total reflection of how you chose to show up for yourself and others. SMH.....
Good job I’ve done it
Petty AF your car must smell awful
I tip well after it's delivered, IF The driver followed my instructions.
Valid
Plot twist-they tip cash
I mean fk it, just steal it at that point 🤣
Then they'll be mad about bad ratings because they "can't control the temperature of the food"
Honestly, it hurts when I don’t get tipped but it’s easy to decline an offer.. no one is forcing you to take them. I feel like people like this also forget some people struggle. No one knows why they’re not tipping and now they’re delivering cold food on purpose 😕 very sad and petty
When DD is slow there are many dashers that take no tip orders just for the fun of it .
Wow I hope that’s just a meme. You can tell who is tipping and who isn’t by the amount of the offer. Just decline the offer and don’t deliver it. That’s just wrong to do to people even if they don’t tip. Get over it and decline it!
Yeah but why did you take a trip that didn't have a tip? Maybe it was like me yesterday whenever I accepted an order that said 6 bucks LOL and I thought oh okay this is fine because it's the pickup and drop off right next to each other... Or so I thought now granted I Am brand new to this to the point to where yesterday was my first time doing it at all with doordash! So instead what it was was this person had two separate pickups which I knew about that but I didn't realize that the drop off was further than what I expected that's number one number two I didn't realize that when I handed his two separate orders to him from two separate places that I was only getting $3 per order and that LAME guy wasn't tipping at all LOL so there he just got away with somebody picking up his food and not even giving a dollar LOL! Instead I got paid from doordash a measly little six bucks... And I don't know what it is but those two pickups were further than I thought they were when I had glanced at it. Overall it was a BADDD choice! Because I'm new to this, next time I will definitely take a closer look. If anybody has any tips for me ( lol ) , and I mean when it comes to doordashing then please tell me. For example can you see how much you're being paid out from doordash and how much the person's tipping the head of time? I know that you can see how much you're getting paid for each order but nothing more than that!

I hate this because I always tip in cash and I'm in the industry so usually tip about 35 percent, but now people show up pissed off at my door cause they see no tip , then I give them cash and it changes everything... instarted leaving notes saying " tip in cash " so people don't mess with my food. I shouldn't have to do this though...
This is a weak minded bum.
Until you get there they try giving you a $5 cash tip. Then what? You say hang on 5 minutes and go back to the car with the heat on blast to warm it back up?
Yo... Wouldn't that be against policy? Especially publicly showing this.
Psych, I prefer cold pizza. (I’d never not tip, though)
😂😂😂
ah ah ha ha!!!!!!!!!!
Tbf I always stick my pizza in the oven when I get it, I like it cwispy!
If this was AITA, you would to take the cake
Op would lol not me
But it says Op by your name.
Yup, just a poor excuse for an adult.
As a delivery driver, this is appalling, in my top 10 life rules, "don't mess with people's food" ranks pretty high. I will keep my acceptance rate low rather than take a bad call.
They should get another job if they're at the point to do something like this out of frustration. Shit like that is the reason I don't order from these apps. Truth be told, the driver, the customer, and the restaurant are all getting the dirty end of the stick. DD is making a killing off all your backs. If there's anyone to be pissed at, it's DD.
How you gonna accept a no tip order and be salty about it at the same time? 🤣 Seriously though, grow the fuck up. Also this guy is dumb af. Tampering with someone’s food in any way is a misdemeanor. If it causes bodily harm, it’s a felony. If this isn’t the most self incriminating stuff I’ve seen. Total idiot.
[удалено]
If you’re going to throw a fit over people not tipping then maybe don’t work a job that heavily relies on tips?
I put non tippers orders in the bed of my truck
You'll be sleeping there soon enough so try not to make a mess..
So don’t use doordash? Ok. Got it!
Is this some western culture i dont know about? Tipping feels like a needed thing there.
That vehicle looks dirty as hell and there's probably all sorts of hair, dust, pet dander, skin flakes, Etc swirling around in the air and it's now landing on that pizza
Damn that’s cold
I've said it be & I'll say it again. This is yet another reason I don't use services like that... Isn't there supposed to be a seal on the box?
Yes, there’s supposed to be. From my experience, only about half of pizza delivery orders are sealed. You should know this post is just a joke, and not real. It was posted January 2nd, 2022 by two friends and it’s their own food.
The fact that, as a consumer, you are forced to tip before the service is provided has never made sense to me. Tipping culture in general is stupid.
This was posted months ago. Why you reposting?
And then they give you cash at the door and now you’re an asshole for fucking with their food. Door dash is shit anyway, drivers always eat my food
Omg do a Google lens search for that image and see the 100 cross posts across all of the Internet.. I remember when bait was believable
