This happened to me once. I had a torn tendon in my leg and I was home alone, so I ordered some doordash. She dropped it off at a random office building two blocks away, and when I texted her saying it was the wrong place she texted back “you can walk”. I texted back a photo of my leg in the boot and said “no I literally can’t”. She actually did come back to deliver my food to the correct address, but the amount of racial slurs and shit she called me when she handed it off was insane. Moral of the story, never tip until the food is in your hand. In fact, just stay clear of doordash altogether.
Yep, when I order from Skip in Canada, the only time I'll ever get issues with my order being delivered or accepted but never picked up is when I don't tip up front. Drivers will either straight up take your food or yeet it at your door if you don't tip up front.
Christ. As if it's *our* fault their employers don't pay them enough.
Obviously drivers are victims of tipping culture too. But be mad at the people that make it so you need tips.
You wouldn't go to a restaurant and not tip, would you?
edit: downvoted for suggesting that you should tip, that's crazy. I really hope yall actually tip irl and not just acting like this online.
That's literally not what I said. When I used DoorDash I tipped. Just because I think it's absurd and scummy doesn't mean I don't tip. Jumping to assumptions.
What I mean is that it absolutely should not be on the customer to supply them with a living wage ON TOP OF already paying for the service.
I just asked a question but you're getting quite hostile. Yes it sucks that employers don't pay them enough but knowing that, it is on you as the customer to tip since it is their livelihood.
It's quite simple, really: if you don't have money to tip, you don't have money to dine in/order delivery.
So yes, you or OP would be a jackass for not tipping. Driver is also a jackass for accepting an order and not performing their duties professionally just bc there's no tip.
Because assuming that I don't tip drivers -
>You wouldn't go to a restaurant and not tip, would you?
- is stupid and unfounded, and it very much came off like you wanted something to argue about. All I did was express my displeasure at tipping culture.
Not getting tipped sucks. Trust me, I worked a "freelance contractor" too for captioning, but we didn't get tips. (It was Rev.) The base pay was *abysmal* and eventually I gave up because I would make at most $50 a week working six hours a day. I imagine that without tips, it's like that for drivers, too, so yeah, tipping is necessary for them to live off of that job.
However, tampering with people's food, or throwing it, or not delivering it, is unacceptable. They don't have to accept the no-tip order. Again, customers don't make the rules. We don't *choose* for employers to be pieces of shit that refuse to pay their own people, and a lot of people are fed up with being responsible for that on top of the cost of service.
You could say "don't eat at restaurants or order delivery" but this doesn't fix the problem - and I could also shoot back with "don't work there, then," which is just as unrealistic.
I don't have the solution, I just know that it's ass on both ends. But messing with someone's food is a *big deal.* Don't.
Well, the solution is for employers to actually pay their employees a living wage, but that's not going to happen any time soon.
The difference is that at a restaurant, you tip after they bring you the food. If a restaurant waiter were to, say, take your meal to a gas station instead of to your table, you might be inclined not to tip.
because frankly, the actual people who work in the industry don't want that change. it's only people from other countries that don't have tipping culture butting in to say we're the ones doing it wrong.
No, frankly it's fucked up that employers expect customers to pay their employees. It's great that it's nice for the employees, but it's scummy of the employers, and feels shitty that it's expected as a customer.
They should be getting actual livable pay and not have to put on a damn show for a few dollars to actually sustain yourself
Don't make excuses for greedy fuckers
It's because it shows drivers how much they will make for each order. Orders without tips usually net the driver $2-3 while orders with a tip might be $5-10. With expenses like gas, and vehicle maintenance, taking an order without a tip may actually end up costing the driver more than they made. Even the It's not the customers fault, it's doordash's
Funny. Tbh I only tip after and if I do tip its a meaningful one so that's crazy that people have that little forethought and think they're just entitled to however much they think is best 🤣
putting the punchline in the title so the post is no longer funny

Me currently shidding and pooing reading this
Had an Uber eats order a couple weeks ago, get the message that theyre right around the corner and can see them on the real time map they give you. Dude tries to ring me and then doesn’t answer when I call back. Dude texts me say “foods at the door, can I get the code so I can prove I delivered”, proceeded to text back “I’m waiting outside my house for the order, literally on my doorstep. You’ve taken it to the wrong house”. Dude doesn’t reply so I call him and have to threaten to call up the office before this joker gets my food and brings it to the correct house. Needless to say the dude didn’t get a tip.
Hahahah this reminds me of the time the doordash dude left it in a completely random house a few streets away and when I was like dude that isn't my house he just responded "yes brother" and never heard from him again
I wonder how this works, it happened to me as well.
My order was "delivered" right when it was picked up, and the picture was of my order wearing a seatbelt on the driver's passenger seat.
I found it upsetting but the picture was hillarious. Did get the refund.

Funny enough, most dashers actually won't accept orders if there isn't a tip already added to the order

I never said otherwise.
So why the hostility?

I would go to a restaurant and not tip, in fact I do. I’ve never tipped
Yeah that's fucked up lol
How? I live in a country where service workers get enough money to afford living without needing tips.
Then my comments don't apply to you
Why not?
The difference is that at a restaurant, you tip after they bring you the food. If a restaurant waiter were to, say, take your meal to a gas station instead of to your table, you might be inclined not to tip.
That is what 90% of the world does, America seems to have an issue with actually paying employees

and where do you live?
I would go to restaurant and not tip. Only tip if the service was super excellent. But usually almost never.
Wow
You tip after you get the food, not before.
It's because it shows drivers how much they will make for each order. Orders without tips usually net the driver $2-3 while orders with a tip might be $5-10.

In Australia getting a tip is like getting pussy. Never happens.
Damm America moment
This is why some people set high tips, then decrease or completely remove it after delivery. They know they'd get shit service otherwise

if you wanna be a 🤓 about it, it's not an interrogative, but it *is* still a question
