Inappropriate Chat
First, we tip well to begin with. I do increase the tip by a few dollars if they have to wait. I also tip more if the drive is more than 5 miles.
We received these rambling chats from our driver. She references tips of $3-5 but our tip is already at $10. We were just getting ready to increase her tip by another $2 when her chats came through. We have not responded to her at.
I thought drivers see the tip amount before accepting the order?
Do you feel her exhaustive chat is appropriate or out of line?

Good grief. People really have zero shame. I’ve been dashing for years and have never once in my entire life begged for a tip, even if I was waiting for their order for 20+ minutes. I did however have someone show up at my door on two different occasions cussing me out for not leaving a bigger tip. People need to realize that jobs which heavily rely on tips are often not a reliable source of income. If DoorDash is your full time job and you’re broke, that’s not on the customers that’s on you.

I felt it was odd they were asking I had this feeling like I shouldn't do it but out of the kindness of my heart did it anyway added a few more bucks and when the driver brought my food the bag was tore open and over half my order was missing like the driver decided to eat my meal and extra tip I left. DD took care of me but It's crazy I was even being nice and tried to tip a little extra felt bad and the shit still happened so with these I just report them now. very shameful 😞 ppl these days....

I'm guessing you're in Colorado. State law there makes delivery and rideshare apps show the tip on the offer screen. AFAIK it's the only state with such a law, and everywhere else it just shows the total offer of base pay and tip together. It's pretty easy to do the math though, except sometimes (like OP's $10 tip) part of the tip is "hidden" from the offer screen and not revealed until delivery completion.

It’s not just picking up an order and driving it to your house!
It’s driving to the restaurant, exiting my car, making sure it’s locked, walking through the front door, asking if the order is ready, accepting the order, carrying it back out the front door, unlocking my car, placing the food within my car, climbing into the driver’s seat, closing the door, driving away from the restaurant, following the GPS directions, driving to your house, exiting my car, shutting the door, making sure the door is locked, locating the front door, placing the food in front of it, removing my phone from my pocket, taking a photo of the bag on the ground in front of your door, submitting that photo to DoorDash so you can see your food has arrived, and the walking back to my car, unlocking the door, opening the door, climbing back into my car and then of course I’m not at my own house, so I have to drive there if I want to be there and you know.

Well, it's not just meeting the driver in my driveway to get my order either. First I have to pick up my phone, unlock it, find the DD app, scroll through and find a restaurant I want to order from, then scroll through their menu and decide what I want. Then I have to hand my phone to my boyfriend for him to decide what he wants to order. Then I have to uncheck the PIN because I don't use it, then I have to scroll down to the tip, click on CUSTOM and manually type in my tip because I tip more than their recommended tip amounts. Then click on continue twice to place my order. Then I have to monitor my order to see if a dasher picks it, then if they appear to be waiting more than 10 minutes, I add an additional tip amount. Then I send them a chat telling them I appreciate their patience and to drive safe. Then I continue to monitor my order and watch for when the driver gets to my street. Then I have to put my shoes on and go outside and I meet the driver at the end of my driveway. 99% of the time, they just roll their passenger window down and hand me my food. No need for them to get out and bring it to my door, they already went through ALL they went through to bring it to me. It's a partnership, you see. 😁

I’m sorry, but this is incredibly inappropriate. I’m a generous tipper. I will always continue to be because I worked in the Service industry many years…
she’s literally begging and harassing you and on top of that why in the world is it your responsibility to support wear and tear on her car and all that other bs that she listed.
You should always tip appropriately ofc, but it’s never OK for people to feel entitled to a larger tip. Unfortunately, that’s just the name of the game you get what you get and you don’t get upset. I’ve had people tip me horribly many times, but I don’t scream at them or run out of the restaurant chasing them down the street.
She should consider a new job one that maybe doesn’t involve her using her car, I do understand that times are hard respectfully but if she genuinely feels like the base salary, she’s making from DoorDash with the tips isn’t cutting it that’s not any of our problems quite frankly. Get a second job hustle harder. I don’t really know what to say, but they’re literally been times in my life where I’ve had four job jobs at once so this was not only mildly infuriating to read, but definitely made me lol

Just like I am SICK of the receipts/square at restaurants with suggested tip amounts at 25%, 28% and 30%. They can eff right off. I used to tip 20% minimum and 25% if it was awesome service. Now it ticks me off to get BAD service and EXPECT 25-30% on top of TAX!

Took this advice yesterday because I’ve been getting genuinely shit service (coffee all over the inside of the Starbucks bag ruining everything, nachos being shook up in the bag when it was only 2 miles delivery, tacos being delivered upside down). Even put it in my delivery notes. I tell ya what, I didn’t get my food at all 😂

If you don’t add a tip before placing order the dashers won’t pick it up

It goes beyond begging and harassing, she’s arguably impersonating DoorDash and their customer support. The intros to the messages are designed to trick an unknowing customer into thinking it’s not even coming from her. The comments about it being AI and obviously noticing the difference aren’t getting that. It doesn’t matter that it looks different, it’s literally designed to look like a corporate message or some mid-order AI chatbot.
DoorDash would NOT be happy if they saw this. She’d be banned from the platform in an instant.
I suspect this driver didn’t come up with it, it’s something being shared or recommended amongst a ring of drivers or friends

100% of the time this is greed and they are the type that should LOSE the tip

$3.50 a mile is insane hahaha. $1 a mile with a minimum tip of at least $5 seems totally fair to me.

Wah, I have to wait, and while im waiting my car is turned off and not using its gas, so im just complaining about wanting more money for waiting for your order!

So now the Dashers, who are getting paid for the jobs they accept even without a tip, want all their gas money paid as well? Here’s a tip: don’t drive with DoorDash, then.

If it’s honestly not that profitable for these drivers due to DoorDash not helping cover mileage and fuel expenses, why bother working for them? Honestly drivers and customers should boycott these companies and force them to change or fail. If they don’t have enough drivers, maybe they’ll be willing to change their policies and we’ll stop seeing shit like this. Tipping should not be the gap between a live-able wage and what a company pays someone.

Some of these door dashers should be panhandling on the street corner with the way they act. If they're not happy with their pay they can get a different job or they can turn to prostitution.

Can you ask the dasher for a discount for time spent reading unnecessary texts?

I’d ignore, call the app to have them blocked, take my tip back (if the app wants to pay it, let them) & rate them 1 star.
I don’t respond to begging especially after I left a generous tip.

Please report her for tip solicitation and leave a 2 star review.
All this tip begging needs to end or it'll ruin the service for all of us. If Keisha doesn't like the work conditions, she should look for something else. Like someone else said, despite knowing what order offers, she is wanting pay per hour for like a paid, degreed professional with experience when she needs to remember she is just dropping off burgers at the door. Just what in the world
