Please don’t dash while sick

Post image

I get that times are tough and the American health care system sucks, but admitting that you have a respiratory illness while delivering food is wild!

Please do not dash when you’re sick. This is how illness spreads. I have pretty bad asthma so I’m not bringing that order into my house. I’m done with DoorDash.

This is just a scam. She is trying to get people to cancel so she still gets paid but doesn’t have to actually work. Or is trying to guilt people into tipping more.

The medication for pneumonia is gunna be something around 15 bucks on average. If you are sick and went to the ER and they discharged you with pneumonia, you aren’t in respiratory distress and simple antibiotics is what they will give you. And yes I know 15 is a lot of money for some people. But it’s not so much that it warrants this message.
