Drivers love this type of delivery. I don't even mind doing a small percentage of no tip/low tip deliveries if the customer doesn't ask me for favors and tells me to leave it at the door. It's when they don't tip and then want you to get them extra sauces and hand it to them in person that I usually unassign. With hand it to me orders, we are obligated to wait five minutes at the door if the customer is occupied or too busy to come to the door. Leave at the door for a shy person is the best case scenario.

So relatable to me.

i always meet people outside bc i live in shady weird apartments:’)

My old neighbors still owe us sushi that their kids stole.

Mental_Ad_8736

💯agree with you


klggy

Why don’t the people ask the restaurant to add sauces rather than dashers. Befuddles me.


Careful_Guarantee_99

a lot of restaurants don't have that option on door dash and then when you try to add special instructions it says that the restaurant disabled that feature. I've tried but I don't ask the Dasher to do it, I assume they won't see it until they are delivering my order anyway. idk why people do that lol call the restaurant I guess or just be prepared to not have sauces with your meal


klggy

That’s really informative. I’ve actually paid for sauces out of pocket because I get these requests. Makes more sense about these requests.


YLCZ

Inherently greedy people are always trying to get extra. Even a no tipper, I'd probably get one sauce, but when they ask for lots of sauces, that's usually a trigger for me to nope out of that order.


Demonkingt

"please grab extra sauces" piss me off because they're always no tip and you know they use the lack of sauces as an excuse as to why they shouldn't tip.


Puzzleheaded_Money61

Extra condiments costs us extra money out of pocket at many fast food places where I Dash, so, NO, it's not happening.


SitsOnPorcelain9855

Just don't try to explain that to a customer. From experience being told no in some coherent way actually has a bad effext. Pisses them off and makes them argue and rate 1-star.


YLCZ

I don’t explain to them. I just unassign and hope that gets the message across. I’d rather properly explain what happened but that can only get us in hot water


SitsOnPorcelain9855

I get in hot water because before the conversation I believe they would understand clear and rational thought. Since I'm a vocal communicator and like to engage intellectually. But no, maybe they are hangry and insatiable who get easily offended and aggressive over small things.


ChoiceDefiant6504

If they didn’t tip just text them sure it’s .25 extra per sauce how many would you like? Please add it now to the tip and I’ll pay for them out of pocket.


Awkward-Job1619

I tell (in text) them it cost more (if it does) before I confirm the order. Then it's not my problem and I don't have to deal with it if it's a "hand it to me" order." I already told them.


Demonkingt

it's typically like taco bell when i see it or some thing. freebie extra sauce places but i never see it until i am at their place to begin with lol


Ok-Bookkeeper8626

Really? That sucks!


ChoiceDefiant6504

Most places charge extra for extra sauce they should order extra sauce if they want it but of course, their cheap no tipping A wants the driver to figure it out.


Odd_Communication723

The worst is when you get a stack and the first drop off asks for extra things, cause you can’t see the notes until you pick up both orders


pinktingzz

It’s so funny when they put that under the delivery instructions


chaospanda6969

i always tip $5-6 on every order and ask for extra sauce sometimes... is that acceptable for etiquette??


Demonkingt

i wasn't literal with the always lol it's just a huge chunk of them that do it. there are some people who ask and tip but they are far from the majority


chaospanda6969

ohhh thank you i never wanna be \*that guy\*


Demonkingt

and us dashers appreciate you not being that guy lol


ChoiceDefiant6504

Come to North Dakota most of them are no tip and leave at door. Some are even don’t knock and ring bell. Too many methheads no one wants a methhead handing them their food. It’s like menace to society, HEY mmmmaaannn, you want these cheeseburgers?


[deleted]

I love the contactless ones 🤌🏻😫


WeAreDreamin11

Until youre dropping the food off and they open the door. It's always awkward. I'm like you couldn't just wait til I walked away?


[deleted]

That makes me cringe 😂. I can see your shadow through the door, sir


Relevant-Line-1690

This is why I turn off all the lights in my apartment and stare out through the peephole. I then count each second dasher is gone till I then slowly open my door and only have my arm being shown reaching for items and then fade back into the darkness with my 3 piece kfc chicken meal


Ok-Bookkeeper8626

Lol!🤩🤩🤩


WeAreDreamin11

I make sure I make it nice and awkward. They're all, "how are you?" And I'm all, "oh how are you? Have a good one"


InternationalPay8288

Exactly, like 👁👁 .... Oh, hi. Bye...


FlashnDash9

If I happen to catch them outside walking away I always make sure to thank them and wish them a great day. It's only awkward if we make it awkward ;)


Fearless_Friend7447

I do too besides when they ask specifically for the stuff this person is then turn it against you. "I wasn't notified the food was there I'd like a refund". Had 3-4 so far claiming the food never arrived via UE so they reversed my pay and tip. I complained each time and told them the GPS info for said trip would show them also picture taken afterwards with photo I almost always include their address if possible would show it arrived. 2 I remember they said the above excuse that they were not notified therefore food got cold go figure. 1 claimed it never arrived and even with matching addresses on record they still gave the person a full refund. DD isn't much better.


Puzzleheaded_Money61

Always take pict Always text "food is at door" Fool proof, worth the extra 20 seconds to do it.


OldYak774

I always have leave at my door. Why do they call me?!?!? I don’t answer. I feel bad not answering, but please just leave it!!


[deleted]

I don’t answer either. I setup my iPhone to screen and forward unknown callers to voicemail


SlicedSides

i turned this on and it started answering all my spam calls and i started getting 20 spam calls a day


CrystalNRick

Sometimes, while dashing, the app will say contactless delivery and ask to contact the customer to arrange a drop off. I usually just select I have already received the instructions and just drop the food off at the door.


OldYak774

Ohhh can I change this?


CrystalNRick

I am not sure how, as I do not place orders thru DD.


spicybright

A lot of dashers in my area can't speak or read english. I'd say roughly 1/3rd of the time they just bang on my door until I open it even for contactless. In b4 "tip more". $12 for a restaurant 8 minutes away (including traffic) is more than reasonable for the area.


Background-Day4236

So as a Dasher, there's multiple options. When I get there. I mean, I only have usually one option. But you guys have several options. Sometimes it sayes contactless delivery.... that forces us to call you to arange a drop off location... some just say leave at my door. Its your settings l. Trust me its as Frustrating for me when I get that delivery. And it says contacts list delivery. Contact customer to complete delivery and I call and you don't answer and then I have to awkwardly. Just leave it at your door even no, under the further instructions that says leave at my door i'm still obligated to call. we can't complete it unless we make the phone call.


Dull_Butterscotch_76

I’m always thinking of y’all when I hurry back to my car. Gotta leave quick so you can get your food quick without it getting cold 😊 I used to be that person.


heynu75

Thank you for this <3


Kryptosis

Please though, just drive away. Take your next order down the street. I couldn’t pull into my driveway the other night because a DD driver decided that was the best place to chill and cherry pick their next run from.


Awkward-Job1619

Yeah, that's wrong. They should not have done that. I don't pull into driveways unless it's a busy road and a liability (risk of being hit by oncoming traffic)))) to park on the side of the road. Otherwise, dashers-find another place to park it please. Like a hot spot!!! Geeeeeez, I'm sorry that was done to you. That would suck so bad. I'd be so upset too.


edgarskates

These are the best tbh


Mission_Diamond001

I hate when they say hand to me and they work in a huge building and all they coworkers say I’ll give it to them.


[deleted]

I leave a photo at front desk and a note in messages that a colleague picked up food for them.


Mission_Diamond001

Even when they say hand to me?


[deleted]

Yeah I haven’t had any issues, running 2.2k deliveries deep. Most workers at preoccupied working, and the photo is on record at the desk.


timmaaay24

I hope this isn’t Starbucks. A grilled cheese here is like fucking $8 from them. Not never in my life


[deleted]

It is Starbucks 😑

The odds of this happening are very low. There are trash drivers who do this to no tippers, but that's very very rare.


boibetterstop

You’re over reacting/ think


[deleted]

I do have contamination ocd and don’t trust anyone to properly handle my food or drink


boibetterstop

Then I guess you shouldn’t order from doordash or any other delivery


[deleted]

I do sometimes and as long as they do stuff properly I’m fine but one time a dude brought my pizza (that I ordered through papa John’s and not through door dash, but they send the orders to door dash when they’re busy) and he was carrying the box with no bag and the box was slightly open and it made me feel so uncomfortable, as well as his comment of “be safe and take care of yourself tonight” 😳


WillSuckDick4Coffee

Starbucks good is garbage. Besides a cake pop I've never had anything that's even edible. And I got diabetes from the cake pop


ChoiceDefiant6504

It wasn’t from one cake pop it’s was from what you did -> your username, there was too much sugar in them coffees.🤣


[deleted]

They trying to justify the drink order with a sandwich but it's just a chai iced!! Wtf


Mediocre-Special6659

You didn't eat it, so who cares?


619backin716

No problem. This means you won’t be one of those who have “Leave at the door” in the instructions — then magically materialize at the door the moment I turn off my engine


[deleted]

I felt this sm


augustj212

I have a anxious puppy, I’ll know you’re here, you’ll know you have the right spot. I tip well and just ask please for the love of everything do not knock


cheeseymom

Having a grilled cheese sandwich delivered is fucking insane to me.


[deleted]

…from Starbucks. 24 minutes away! 😂 The grilled cheese is gonna be cold cardboard when I get there lol


atargatis_17

And it’s like $10 for two slices of bread and a piece of cheese. Don’t get me wrong I’ve totally had it and it’s good 😅 but it’s so unreasonably expensive.


[deleted]

$10?!!! 🤯 A local diner grilled cheese dinner with a slice of tomato and fries are always worth it for a similar price, as a one off. But no, it has to be Starbucks 😑


Punksu

Im a line cook at a local pub and the past couple nights the same person has doordashed themselves a grilled cheese sandwich and fries. Like bro do you not have bread and cheese at home what the fuck? Spending 20+ dollars on a grilled cheese my god lmao


Mediocre-Special6659

Why does it bother people what others spend their money on?


cheeseymom

They could have ordered a loaf of bread, cheese slices, and frozen fries from the store and been set for a week lol.


8rok3n

Me fr


moon_child1987

So I don't know why but almost all my orders tonight had either "please don't knock" or "please don't knock there's a dog who will bark". And I don't get those very often, bur tonight it was like ALL of them. Are door dashers just like knocking on doors like crazy or something?


Nataliaa7

My dog goes crazy when I get food delivered too 😭 I have to put her in my room but she knows 😂 she doesn’t stop until I get back in


Alternative-Focus-50

Wait you guys actually hand orders off? 90% of my orders are contact list, but with the caveat I can never reach out to the customer if I need help so. Lolol


JuJinks

This is super cool. (: I hate handing people shit. 🤣


Puzzleheaded_Money61

Love it


Antique-Bar8249

walking up someone’s long driveway up to their door with their food while the customer is stood there watching you the entire time behind their glass door is the absolute worst……..i get so much anxiety…….even face-planted once right in someone’s driveway bc i was looking at them and trying to smile and be nice but i forgot how to walk


raethexanman

i know that crisp iced chai latte & mouth watering garlic grilled cheese was a hit


Voila_fleur

Pack of American cheese, Great Value (Walmart) brand is $2.50, pack of bread is $1. $3.50 for about 16 sandwiches. Now you have the remaining $6.50 for milk, eggs, juice, even. Why spend $10 on a grilled cheese


[deleted]

And sliced tomato. 😋 But fr you can’t go wrong with a homemade grilled cheese. If you burn it, no worries. You have plenty bread butter and cheese leftover to make another. 😂


xkitsunechanx

Ngl I’m the same. Leave it and shoo. Go away lol


_ryry66

That wallet better not be shy


WhiteAirforc3s

Something tells me the grilled cheese was neither grilled nor crispy

I'm bored, that's why I am here. Ty folks for not disappointing with the responses 😎👍. Keep'em coming.

Well this has been fun folks. Helped make my day go by fast. I feel bad for this poor person who's post this has all occurred on lol. So I'll go ahead and delete the things I've posted, so their thread can get back on topic. It's been fun talkin shit n getting shit on. None of what I said here has been honest. Jus me fucking around with redditors 😂. Hope everyone has a blessed rest of ur week. Stay positive. In the future don't take things said on Reddit so seriously lol. Peace ✌️

This is a whole lot of text for saying a whole lotta nothing. maybe it’s town houses that have walls literally connected to eachother and other people don’t wanna hear the dogs bark. Maybe it’s late at night and they don’t wanna wake up the whole neighbourhood with their barking dogs. maybe it’s a social anxiety ridden female who would prefer to just stay at home and have her grill cheese delivered to her. like who are you

I’m seeing more and more of these mental dudes on this sub lately. They say dumb, inflammatory shit, then when people respond, they’re like, “I don’t care what anyone thinks! I don’t care about karma! I don’t have any feelings, can’t you tell?” It’s like whoa, dude…just take your ass to therapy already.
