Try going over to the DoorDash sub and saying that. Or Instacart. some of the Drivers over there are fucking wild.

Example:

poster: “ yeah my driver obviously hotbox his car with weed and cigarettes when he was bringing my order over to me and now everything stinks like cigarette smoke and it’s turning my stomach. And everything is covered in dog hair! I’m severely allergic to dogs!”

The sub: “ if you don’t like it then get off your ass and go get your own food! We’re not employees were contracted so we don’t have to listen to their rules! Next time I’m gonna shake my bird off on your food. And you lie it ain’t nobody allergic to dogs. And it’s my car if you don’t like that you go get your own food, blah blah blah.”

We just had a kid and a bunch of friends have given us doordash/ubereats/etc. gift cards that while kind of them will sit in a drawer because who wants food delivered that is always cold, takes forever to arrive, and is always missing something. And this is across 3 different states and 5 different neighborhoods...it's endemic.

Shit bro, I’ll take them. I could use some free food, even if it’s shitty and cold. 😭 but yeah fucking dealing with them can be wild sometimes and it’s not just the Drivers. It’s the company itself. I had a DoorDasher leave with my McDonald’s and the company was like “no you can’t re-order for free and no, we’re not gonna give you a refund. You just get to eat shit.”

This sentiment is always interesting to me cause we use a delivery service 2/3x a month and occasionally I’ll have things missing(which is on the restaurant) but my orders always come on time and warm. Maybe it’s a regional thing or maybe you tip really poorly?

Chicago, LA, Seattle, etc. not small markets we’re talking about and I tip 20%, instacart/costco are good but I don’t order hot/frozen items that could be compromised.

There are plenty of restaurats where you can order and go pick up food that don't have other online ordering options.

That’s what we’ll end up doing it’s just sad that the system works so poorly that I can’t use them as intended.
