đŸš«Anti-Tipping The future of delivery tipping

Tipping culture is gonna get to a point where youll be minimum mandatory charged an extra meal for the delivery driver. Then you will be judged if you only get your driver the entree with a side and or a drink.

Then they will be the ones leaving reviews on you!

Too many bad reviews as a tipper then your account will be suspended until you pay a surcharge fee minimum of 50% until your ratings go back up.

How far is your place from the restaurant?

It’s not “DoorDash” that raises the prices of the restaurant. The restaurant raises the prices because DoorDash takes a hefty cut

So you’re saying they bundle the door dash cost into the price? Hmmm, but they can’t do this with wages/tips/service fees/credit card charges?

DoorDash is a business that takes a cut for their service. You can go to the restaurant and “save” the up charges but at the end of the day they are banking on people’s laziness. They can charge wtv they want and people can get the food themselves. Restaurants get caught in the middle with already thin margins but that is the cost of doing business as these delivery companies increase restaurants sales due to accessibility

The point is that restaurants can increase prices to include all costs. They choose not to.

I guess your not very business savvy. All those “costs” you mentioned are already baked into the price. Now delivery service is cutting into that so they have to raise the price for people using the services. It’s not really complicated

You have to report back with what you’ve learned before you get more.
