DoorDash - Dasher 12+

That I’ve done over 3500 deliveries and I had surgery a few months back to where this is all I could do an egg and I’m gonna try to stay pretty loyal to you guys and last month something happened to the app or you guys try to do that I don’t know but it messed me up. I might be losing my home because of it but he’s getting better again I mean I think I’m going to sparks delivery because of that I can I can’t depend on tips like that to pay my gas and my bill Hayden, Doordash, and his grade as long as everybody cooperates we could’ve made it even a greater thing because I’m a year you’re always sending me emails asking if you resolve my issue because I have a lot of issues with it. Made this company. Perfect but many people there didn’t like me and yeah and a lot of them say they can’t help me with my not getting orders in but I know they can because people do help me. I mean I do appreciate Doordash you help me through a lot but there that last month it took me till the 23rd to be able to pay my rent. I was baking addiction and I don’t have it this month. It took too long to get back, no you know I have you like – but I got to go somewhere else because I can’t. I can’t depend on my loyalty to get me through and I know I’ve had some days where I went home early but I’ve only had like five days off since November 3 of 2022 make it better and I’ll stick around but I can’t go down to 1375 an hour and hope for tips I just bottom line I can’t do it.

I do not like new map... it does not connect to my blue tooth and even turned off, I can’t get sound unless I turn the car all the way off... it was great before... however, it might mostly be from the iOS update. But I could deal with that if the map automatically centered so I could glance at the screen to see where I’m at...and it’s more difficult to locate customers houses and probably fifty percent of the houses and apts, you cannot see the numbers. I had to manually put in addresses into my google maps... it’s still easier to follow without sound. Having to re center the dasher map constantly is like an accident waiting to happen. Maybe there is an advantage to that that I don’t see yet?
Also, customers have reported that they’ve tried to edit their info and messages to us, but it doesn’t work ... their changes don’t update.
It would be super helpful if we had name of shopping center, office, apt complex, neighborhood where those stand out. And if someone lives in a house with no or difficult to see house numbers... some other visual indication might be helpful... like ‘white house w shutters and two lights at door’ or something. Half the houses are easy and straightforward... but some are not clear on map and when I can’t see addresses, I can’t confirm... I’ve had several close calls of dropping at wrong location. These details could help circumvent problems.

While this is a great way of making some extra cash, many times I’ve been left frustrated. For instance I’ve been to Taco Bell on two different occasions just to realized that they’re closed and you have to use the driveway. By the time you get to the driveway mic, they’re not accepting DoorDash orders. I spent 37mins in a Taco Bell driveway just to be told this and it’s happened twice. I was once sent to a restaurant that wasn’t even open and for all my time spent I was compensated with $0. NOTHING.
I don’t even want to talk about the times they’ve made me do orders way out of my delivery zone. It’s one thing to pick up orders in your zone and deliver out of your zone, but to give me orders out of my zone is not cool. I was dealt a blow when on one occasion I did a delivery out of my zone and since it was going to be my last delivery because I was scheduled to stop in a few minutes, they added my order to pickup another order close to the delivery point of my first order. Remember I was already out of my pickup zone. The second order had a delivery address about 17mins when it would’ve been way above my schedule time. When I finally delivered it, it was a 50mins drive back home. I used to care about my acceptance rates, but not anymore because they don’t care about your contract

I can go on and on, but I’ll end here for now
