This is incredibly annoying. Whilst I don’t really agree with tipping, it’s a strongly ingrained cultural norm in the US, and what I really don’t agree with is lying to your customers. I made a DoorDash order just a few minutes ago and it was the first time I had tipped cash to a delivery driver. The driver seemed to be pretty pleased. I’d use an alternative delivery service but I’m not sure which to use, and none of them seem to have the market penetration doordash has here in the NW.
- Simulacra 7y agoI stopped using delivery apps because of the tipping. I hate it and I'm doing my best to avoid it.
- noodlesUK 7y agoUnfortunately when you’re in suburban US and you can’t or don’t want to drive, you’re stuck with little other choice sometimes...
- kaybe 7y agoCan't you just call the restaurants themselves? Or did they stop their own deliveries?
- Konnstann 7y agoA lot of restaurants have switched to delivery through third-party services, which is a shame because the quality of service has really gone down. The treatment of the workers is also significantly worse.
- bliblah 7y agoDon't use a delivery service that isn't actually performed by the restaurant. Every one of these services pays below minimum wage to their drivers and will use every trick in the book to make sure that any cost saving measures goes downstream to lower the amount paid to the drivers.
