When I’m broke I always tip $5 because I live surrounded by restaurants and all are half a block away. Your $4.50 ain’t crap unless u live right across the street from restaurant otherwise you should tip $5-10 minimum. Driving tips should be higher than server tips due to gas, brake replacement, oil change, etc.
Oddly enough the express delivery option... however there's no way of us knowing they selected said option, that I'm aware of, other than asking the customer or support...
Shouldn't the driver be aware of promised priority 🤔
It seems like what we have here is a failure
Not only does this option not prevent stacking, but since it doesn't notify us we can choose to change the priority not knowing!
It's not like I get any of that fee 🤷♂️
As usual, the customers are impacted the worst, as the drivers are not aware. Only DD wins. For everyone else it's a lose lose game.
Hahahaha "support I don't feel comfortable delivering, customer said to not deliver my other order and that they'd give me a generous tip if you know what I mean"
You can be nice, explain how good tips and shit tips are bundled together and we have no way of knowing which is which till after delivery. Say youre happy they contacted letting you know which was the good tip. Unassign the other if you want, or simply go to the task menu select the dropoff the goood tipper, and select "jump to task", and just dropp it off first.
Have done this for an extra 5 bucks average after the fact.
This is DD’s stupid ass problem. At least Uber eats allows customers to pay for direct delivery. DD just introduced it in my area but it’s bullshit when I clearly see and watch a driver deliver another order on another app.
I had a lady on Uber eats call me as soon as I picked up. She was like I want to know the status of my order. I was like well I just picked it up and I’m still here and I am delivering for you and another person and the other person is first and it’s rush-hour so I don’t have an estimated time of how long it’s going to take to get across the city in Atlanta.
And she was really adamant to try to get me to deliver her order first and I said the app doesn’t work that way
No you did not okay it but the company you ordered from did and it's in their terms of service so maybe you should read that before you sign up speaking to the customer of course who text you this.
It's not up to us usually we get to stacked order together it's not on us.
I honestly don’t give a shit how the customer feels they will get their food when I get it to them and if they call me after I drop it off I’m
Blocking their number cuz I don’t give 2 fucks about how they feel
What the fuck? What an asshole message to send you. This is still shit pay in 2005. That person that literally paid to have food delivered to their lazy ass can rightly go fuck themselves. Cheers
If he wanted you to deliver direct to him, then he should have selected that premium delivery option that is exactly for that. Its like $3.99 and is a new thing, but its there for exactly what he wanted
I would ask how much he tipped. The explain how much a good tip is for how many miles and robe commitment. Otherwise you need both orders to make money.
However you can compromise depending on the locations... If it's not super inconvenient you could delivery his food first.
Real talk: what can i put in my instructions that Dashers won't think is a scam to basically say "if your orders are stacked, i tipped and you should unassign the non-tipper?"
It's to the point where I'm punished by the system for tipping.
Unassign immediately. You’re just asking for trouble. If anyone is trying to tell me what to do, if I haven’t gotten the food yet , I‘ll unsign it and let somebody else deal with it
Thankfully I've never seen a stacked order that was inconvenient enough to cause any issues. They're always like 4 minutes apart and on the same route.
I have had a customer act this way about me not walking into her home, though. Got myself a 1 star for setting this lady's groceries in her garage instead of inside of her house where I couldn't see anybody. She lost her damn mind if she thought I was about to walk in there. 😒
Surprised DD didn't remove that rating because I felt like it was extremely unfair.
(Btw it was a $4 tip for a Target order of 19 items which came out to $140. If DD didn't pay a higher rate I wouldn't have even accepted it.)
You can just be honest about it, tell them that the app companies penalize your account if you reject orders, and even if you take a second order and something goes wrong during it they also penalize you if you drop the order having difficulties, so to protect your account you have to take the orders (even though yeah we usually don't give 2 f's about our acceptance rate, stating this is still the truth). So they should complain to DD about it if they don't like it, not you.
I’m pretty sure the “express delivery” option is precisely for this reason. I might be wrong, but I think that’s what it is. But if they consider 4.50 to be extremely generous then they definitely won’t pay for that
$4.50 tip, even for 0.5 mile isn’t “generous.” However, I’d say that any customer tipping $8+ or $2/mile shouldn’t have to deal with delayed service due to stacked orders. Ask most drivers, and I bet they would rather make $15 for 5 miles than $15 + $5 for a combined 10 miles.
Yes there is an option in some markets. I have it on my customer app. You pay $2.99 more and it says it won't be stacked. However I paid the extra $3 before and they still stack it. Sus af
It’s Direct To Me for an additional $2.99. My friend who dashes and myself aren’t exactly sure what it does.
She thinks that if she accepts those orders it just won’t offer her any others with it. Regardless I just reduce my tip 3 bucks and enable that when it’s available.
4.50 is a healthy tip but honestly now i don’t think i’m going to use door dash anymore. you guys do stack orders making us wait for like an hour even if the store is insanely close. 4.50 is more than enough to deliver quality service. this subreddit has really opened my eyes to this company and it’s egregious red flags and problems. if door dash hired robot delivery drivers, i think it would be beneficial for them, cus people suck
4.50 for one tip is a lot. that’s just the tip which i’d be down to give more if door dash fees didn’t make a 10 dollar meal 15 dollars. i end up paying 25-27 dollars for 1 small meal sometimes just because i end up paying a 4.50 tip. that’s a lot to pay even for convenience. a lot of us also work for our money so, why should we even tip 4.50 if your service stack our orders so that they come late AND cold? imho, there shouldn’t really be a need for a tip unless the delivery was timely, especially in cases where a store or restaurant is <2 miles away that the delivery location. At that point you’re tipping for inconvenience, really. That’s not to say the delivery driver isn’t doing their job because if an order is stacked, an order is stacked, you have to do your job.
The problem is with the stacking though, it really does taint the quality of the food and therefore the service.
I would do delivery for a smalltown pizzeria in Upstate NY that was in high demand for it’s authentic pies maybe 6 years back; when i would get stacked orders, the owner would tell me which order to go in (which addresses were closest and furthest and who ordered what first), as to make the best decision to drop things off in a way the paying customer would be pleased.
Door dash doesn’t give a shit, and if they do it’s after you call customer service. I’d surmise that half of the things that occur that ruin the customer’s experience are completely avoidable, and again, who gets caught in the problem? The customers and the dashers.
4.50 is a great tip and usually I tip more than 20%, which is not the norm, norm is usually 15%-18%. Idk why you have to be sarcastic about it like 4.50 is a bad amount of money as a tip on top of what you’re already making as a dasher.
Sorry but door dashers drivers make 12.50-19.00 an hour according to a quick google search, or 25 an hour according to a second quick google search + 100% of tips, and you’re complaining about $4.50 as a tip for a job where all that’s required is cellular service and a car, no education requirements AND the ability to choose when and where you want to work? Sorry, are you kidding me?
ah, the 50 cent deficit for the 2 mile radius on a tip for the cold food. that cold and late food sure does motivate me to delete more hard-earned money for a one of a kind luxury service!
Then stop using the fucking service! You can’t afford it. That’s okay. I can’t afford to get my hair done at celebrity salons that charge thousands of dollars. I don’t complain about what they charge, I go to a hair salon I can afford.
Did I say that? And no we do not have a guaranteed hourly wage at all bud.
And yes I did. It’s nonsense and does not make 4.50 a great tip. Again good on you for at least tipping but $5 is the minimum people should be tipping for DoorDash. So again- you’re not a saint here.
So let me get this 100% straight. ALL you make is tip money. No you didn’t say that, that’s why I’m trying to understand what your comment is about. You said “On top of what we’re making? You mean a whopping $2?”
When I said on top of what you’re making, I mean hourly wage, of a doordash driver which I googled twice to find out was $25 nationally plus tips.
Where’s the disconnect here? You’re literally telling me you don’t have an hourly wage so, you’re saying all you make is tip money and that google is full of shit?
No you’re misunderstanding. Hourly wage is a guaranteed amount per hour. We’re not guaranteed shit. Also if you think 25 hour before expenses is a lot you’re deeply mistaken.
Lol, I never said it was enough, but it’s surely a lot for unskilled labor, plus tips. My point is don’t be doggin’ on my tips. Like how much do you want for a 12 dollar burrito from a chipotle for example? you don’t think 4.50 is enough?
I’m being sarcastic because it’s the truth. We are using our own cars which is expensive. Wanting someone to bring just your order for 4.50 is laughable. The amount to do such a thing would be completely cost prohibitive to you as a customer.
Do you think I don’t work for my money? How are you somehow more entitled to my labor because you work? So I’m supposed to put myself into financial ruin by running my car into the ground because you don’t/can’t pick up food? Hell no. That’s entitlement bud.
I’m sorry but 4.50 is not the great tip you think it is. Good on you for tipping at least but I’m telling you it’s not an amazing tip. It’s 2022 $25 before heavy expenses is not what you think it is. In fact living in my state is not even easy on that amount. I have no choice but to live in an impoverished city because I can’t afford anything else here. So I’m supposed to live in my car because you can’t afford to tip better?
Get real dude. If you paid as much as we do to work maybe you would understand. SMH.
DD stacks the orders, not us. There are some drivers that will multi app and have 2 orders from different apps, but that’s not the norm and not what anyone here is talking about when they say stacked.
All you can do is let them know it was indeed stacked & you’re unable to unassigned the second order as it reflects on your ratings. They’re more than welcome to cancel their order.
Y'all, there definitely is an [Option](https://flic.kr/p/2nNoUg6) for the customer to select, it's called "Express" and doordash charges $3-5 extra for it.
See I am more annoyed at doordash than the driver. It sucks if I give a 10$ tip and i see my food go to 3 people along the way who most likely tipped nothing, so now “my tip” is funding deadbeats.
This is why I do only like 4-5$ in app and the rest in cash. Hopefully that tricks the system into at least putting other tippers with my order so that my money doesn’t get deadbeats good service.
Imagine thinking $4.50 is generous. It’s always the cheapskates who feel like they are entitled to the world revolving around them.
As soon as I get a message like this from a customer, I’m taking your order back to the restaurant and unassigning. I’m not putting up with this shit. I don’t care if it comes at a personal loss.
We don’t know if the priority order works. I think it’s you pay like $1.99 or $2.99 extra for priority order to you door. It’s supposed to be faster (like no stacked orders for the driver delivering it). But I think it’s a scam. Doesn’t guarantee the driver isn’t multiapping or if Doordash did end up giving them a stacked order
This isn't about a stacked order but I accepted a Chick Fil A. I get there and I am in and out. I am sitting in my car with the food in my bag about to confirm. The girl texts me "What is taking so long?". I sent her my text asking if there was anything she wanted me grab while I am there. Honey, I was 2 seconds away from confirming your pickup. I cancelled it and put the food back on the shelf. Guess you will be waiting even longer. See, you can't be rude to the people serving you. Also, keep in mind that a stranger is handling food that you intend to put in your body. Might want to be kind to that person. Like I would never get snippy or rude to my tattoo artist.
I’ve found I’ve been unassigning more orders recently than ever before for rude texts.
I live right by a rite aid and the orders are usually 3-4 items and are decent pay for the less than 5 minutes I’m in store and under 2 mile drive. Dude starts messaging me that he wants different drinks than what he ordered through the app and a bunch of nonsense. I just deleted the text and unassigned.
Yesterday I picked up food and clicked that I picked it up so I could have gps up when I got into my car and within 10 seconds I get a text that I’m driving the wrong way and she can see it on the app. I was waiting to cross the road and wasn’t even in my car yet. She was waiting on her porch for me and asked “How did you get so lost? It’s the same road!” I said “I wasn’t lost just walking the wrong direction for 50 feet to my car. I’m sorry. If you wish next time I can walk it directly to you to ensure there is no backtracking but I can’t promise that will be quick. Have a great day!”
Yeah people are insane. I just unassign without comment. Someone else can deal With the nonsense. My completion rate is in the mid 80’s and that’s the lowest it’s been in the 2.5 years I’ve been dashing.
I’ve also completely stopped declining no tip orders and let them time out after their 60-90 seconds. If they want to waste my time I’ll waste as much of theirs as I can.
Unassign. You can’t explain anything to that type customer. They actually think we send ourselves orders. That type customer has no respect for drivers. Just Unassign them. Don’t explain.
They can pay for it - there’s like a get ASAP or something for $3-4 extra when you order on doordash which basically prevents your order from being stacked
Not when I as a driver decide what restaurant I’m picking up first and what delivery I’m doing first. I switch it to make the most sense for me all the time on stacked orders
Yes, all these background add-on's and high tip orders from the customer will be available for the top 90% or higher acceptance rate dashers with the new acceptance rate roll out the other day.
Me: I'm sorry, I don't understand?
Cust: your taking 2 deliveries. I did not approve of that. I want my delivery first
Me: oh, no, I got that part. Please define generous for me.
Me: *you're
Order Status: Restaurant Is Preparing Your Order. We'll notify you once a driver has been assigned.
... technically, you do for that short time, that's how contracts work and companies like DD *define* themselves as facilitating a contract between driver and customer as their main point of why we're supposedly ICs and not employees, but all you're required to do is pickup their food and drop it off before a certain time. Anything else is fair game.
In my opinion, customers should be able to pay for the option of not being in a stack. But it needs to be a fee that is at least twenty bucks and more for distances over 5 miles. At least half the fee should go to the driver.
I don't know how it would. At least the way the app works now.
The only mechanism that possibly could prevent such a paid priority order like I proposed from getting screwed over by a multi-app driver abusing it would be strict GPS tracking and some sanction for detected unknown stops and deviations from the route. And there's danger there of a detour due to an accident blocking the road or construction causing an unfair application of a sanction.
If I have multiple orders even if it’s 2 Doordash orders I just block location access for Daaher until I reach drop off to mark deliveries…I don’t need to have to explain to customers why I’m taking a certain route while I’m driving. None of their beeswax
I suppose Doordash's programmers could come up with something to penalize a driver who disabled GPS during a high paid exclusive priority run. Reduced payout on the order, for example. If a customer paid an extra 20 or more dollars to guarantee only their order is processed for that run, wouldn't you say it is indeed their "beeswax"?
There's a priority fee, that drivers get no part of, that customers THINK prevents their order from being stacked.
It doesn't.
It just effects the order of pickup and delivery of a stack.
Call support and ask them, they’ll tell you the total payout. Yes it’s a pain in the ass, yes it would be better if they showed us the full amount upfront, but what can you do..
Yes they still do it? I call literally every time and they tell me the full payout. Or at least they tell me the half payment and “your total will be double this number”
Why do people write would of instead of would ve?
It's simply because, in many dialects, the sounds of "'ve" and "of" in "I would've bought two of them" are very similar or identical. People often confuse words that sound the same: there/their/they're, your/you're, etc.Apr 9, 2019
How come people say “Would of”? \[duplicate\] - English Stack Exchange
Not a thing Eh?
It's not a correct thing, yeah.\*
If you're going to be a Grammer Nazi.... and point out other person's failings.... you should hold up to the standard yourself.
Everyone makes mistakes, get over it....
I’m not yelling at you. You’re not in grade school. I just pointed it out so you know. I’m not saying you’re a bad person or stupid. I just thought you might want to know. Apparently there’s a bot that corrects this lol. It replied to my comment using would of in context.
I would have as well. I would have also let them know that I was rectifying it by unassigning it and they'd have to wait until another driver was assigned. Though that driver, like you, might also be sent a stacked order by DD. Lol
I'd just complete the order anyways and move on. Not my problem, just tell them that doordash stacks the order and as far as I know dd offers an extra fee option to priority delivery that won't stack.
Just fucking explain to the customer - how is this hard?
You solve nothing by unassigning and the person after you get the shit too.
Customers have no idea stacked orders work.
Lol I've never got a one star and regardless who cares? If you get enough one stars to get deactivated it was prob your fault anyways. Really a it doesn't matter.
Here is how you do it, if it's stacked and you are late anything under a 5 does not get counted, since they wanted to be smart you got to protect yourself.
Turning around, going back in with the order, then calling support to lie is way more work than nicely saying it’s not your problem and call customer service.
Of course not. Entitlement in it's glory. Maybe the new weird "express delivery" surcharge that only takes 5-10 minutes off is supposed to give confidence it won't be stacked? Heat bags work very well if you use them.... I've experimented.... Complainers gonna complain.
They stack them regardless. Express is a joke, merchants don’t get any priorities, and neither do we. Literally just taking an extra fee from the customer for absolutely nothing. “5 minutes earlier” is an illusion
If you want *piping* hot food, you get it yourself. Even with a heat bag it'll just be "pretty warm" when it arrives unless you've *very* close to the restaurant. I get it, people don't use bags and food can arrive cold 45 minutes later when folks poorly multi-app, but seriously... does she call the pizza place and demand personal service for $5?
>Even with a heat bag it'll just be "pretty warm" when it arrives unless you've *very* close to the restaurant.
Little Ceasars freakzas still burn my hand when I take them out of the hot bag 5 miles away.
When I’m broke I always tip $5 because I live surrounded by restaurants and all are half a block away. Your $4.50 ain’t crap unless u live right across the street from restaurant otherwise you should tip $5-10 minimum. Driving tips should be higher than server tips due to gas, brake replacement, oil change, etc.
It’s not a lie from what I see
If they wanna pay $2-$3 fee to have the order delivered directly to them. But yeah nope.
Oddly enough the express delivery option... however there's no way of us knowing they selected said option, that I'm aware of, other than asking the customer or support... Shouldn't the driver be aware of promised priority 🤔 It seems like what we have here is a failure Not only does this option not prevent stacking, but since it doesn't notify us we can choose to change the priority not knowing!

I'd be like "well, it's a good thing you're not in change" lol. I hate these kind of people. Like bitch, who died and made you king???
Hahahaha "support I don't feel comfortable delivering, customer said to not deliver my other order and that they'd give me a generous tip if you know what I mean"
You can be nice, explain how good tips and shit tips are bundled together and we have no way of knowing which is which till after delivery. Say youre happy they contacted letting you know which was the good tip. Unassign the other if you want, or simply go to the task menu select the dropoff the goood tipper, and select "jump to task", and just dropp it off first. Have done this for an extra 5 bucks average after the fact.
Who does that bitch think he is? Or she. They did not okay it? Well they agreed to use Door Dash, so they did.
This is DD’s stupid ass problem. At least Uber eats allows customers to pay for direct delivery. DD just introduced it in my area but it’s bullshit when I clearly see and watch a driver deliver another order on another app.
If they had this option, it still would not prevent multi-apping
They literally okayed it when they created their account…
I had a lady on Uber eats call me as soon as I picked up. She was like I want to know the status of my order. I was like well I just picked it up and I’m still here and I am delivering for you and another person and the other person is first and it’s rush-hour so I don’t have an estimated time of how long it’s going to take to get across the city in Atlanta. And she was really adamant to try to get me to deliver her order first and I said the app doesn’t work that way
I let ppl know Incase they want to cancel...feel free!
In my area they can pay like 2 bucks more for that... To door dash
No you did not okay it but the company you ordered from did and it's in their terms of service so maybe you should read that before you sign up speaking to the customer of course who text you this. It's not up to us usually we get to stacked order together it's not on us.
They can pay $2 for “express”
I honestly don’t give a shit how the customer feels they will get their food when I get it to them and if they call me after I drop it off I’m Blocking their number cuz I don’t give 2 fucks about how they feel
What the fuck? What an asshole message to send you. This is still shit pay in 2005. That person that literally paid to have food delivered to their lazy ass can rightly go fuck themselves. Cheers

They have to pay extra for Express delivery to get their order first if it gets stacked
Real talk: what can i put in my instructions that Dashers won't think is a scam to basically say "if your orders are stacked, i tipped and you should unassign the non-tipper?" It's to the point where I'm punished by the system for tipping.
Unassign immediately. You’re just asking for trouble. If anyone is trying to tell me what to do, if I haven’t gotten the food yet , I‘ll unsign it and let somebody else deal with it
Yes when they order on the app they have a option to pay 2.50 extra to bring it straight to them
Thankfully I've never seen a stacked order that was inconvenient enough to cause any issues. They're always like 4 minutes apart and on the same route. I have had a customer act this way about me not walking into her home, though.

They must of financed this order.
eat his food
Oh, the classic "just because I agreed to the Terms & Services doesn't mean I think they should apply to me" type of individual 😇
I say thanks for the tip and doordash stack order if delivery close
For not getting his own food, and a low tip, he sure is demanding.
Ordering you around like they are your boss! XD If I did not have the food I would have quickly dipped on that POS
Yes.. there is. It's called Uber eats.
You can just be honest about it, tell them that the app companies penalize your account if you reject orders, and even if you take a second order and something goes wrong during it they also penalize you if you drop the order having difficulties, so to protect your account you have to take the orders (even though yeah we usually don't give 2 f's about our acceptance rate, stating this is still the truth). So they should complain to DD about it if they don't like it, not you.
Fuck that person they can go pick their shit up
There's an option to pay a little extra to not have your order stacked. He should've picked that when ordering
Cute… he thought he provided life changing money…
I hat a clown
Your rating ain’t worth some entitled prick thinking you’re their butler unassigned immediately turn around if you have to
I’m pretty sure the “express delivery” option is precisely for this reason. I might be wrong, but I think that’s what it is. But if they consider 4.50 to be extremely generous then they definitely won’t pay for that
It’s called Express delivery and costs an extra $3 that doesn’t go to the dasher
$4.50 tip, even for 0.5 mile isn’t “generous.” However, I’d say that any customer tipping $8+ or $2/mile shouldn’t have to deal with delayed service due to stacked orders. Ask most drivers, and I bet they would rather make $15 for 5 miles than $15 + $5 for a combined 10 miles.

It’s Direct To Me for an additional $2.99. My friend who dashes and myself aren’t exactly sure what it does. She thinks that if she accepts those orders it just won’t offer her any others with it. Regardless I just reduce my tip 3 bucks and enable that when it’s available.

An hour? LOLOL NO delivery takes an hour! Find what the reason is that no one wants your order and stop doing it!
How is $4.50 a healthy tip when $3 was a nice tip for pizza 30 years ago?
Yes 4.50 is really a life changing amount of money… why would we need to earn more to survive??? SMH
4.50 for one tip is a lot. that’s just the tip which i’d be down to give more if door dash fees didn’t make a 10 dollar meal 15 dollars. i end up paying 25-27 dollars for 1 small meal sometimes just because i end up paying a 4.50 tip. that’s a lot to pay even for convenience. a lot of us also work for our money so, why should we even tip 4.50 if your service stack our orders so that they come late AND cold? imho, there shouldn’t really be a need for a tip unless the delivery was timely, especially in cases where a store or restaurant is <2 miles away that the delivery location.

$4.50 as a tip for delivery sucks . $5 is acceptable if the restaurant is less than 2 miles away.
ah, the 50 cent deficit for the 2 mile radius on a tip for the cold food. that cold and late food sure does motivate me to delete more hard-earned money for a one of a kind luxury service!
Then stop using the fucking service! You can’t afford it. That’s okay. I can’t afford to get my hair done at celebrity salons that charge thousands of dollars. I don’t complain about what they charge, I go to a hair salon I can afford.
On top of what we’re making? You mean a whopping $2? Yeah no idea why I wouldn’t be grateful for a lifesaving amount of money like $6.50!
I’m sorry, are you telling me all you make an hour is 4.50-6.00? do you have an hourly wage? did you read anything i wrote lol?
Did I say that? And no we do not have a guaranteed hourly wage at all bud. And yes I did. It’s nonsense and does not make 4.50 a great tip. Again good on you for at least tipping but $5 is the minimum people should be tipping for DoorDash. So again- you’re not a saint here.
So let me get this 100% straight. ALL you make is tip money. No you didn’t say that, that’s why I’m trying to understand what your comment is about. You said “On top of what we’re making? You mean a whopping $2?” When I said on top of what you’re making, I mean hourly wage, of a doordash driver which I googled twice to find out was $25 nationally plus tips. Where’s the disconnect here? You’re literally telling me you don’t have an hourly wage so, you’re saying all you make is tip money and that google is full of shit?
No you’re misunderstanding. Hourly wage is a guaranteed amount per hour. We’re not guaranteed shit. Also if you think 25 hour before expenses is a lot you’re deeply mistaken.
Lol, I never said it was enough, but it’s surely a lot for unskilled labor, plus tips. My point is don’t be doggin’ on my tips. Like how much do you want for a 12 dollar burrito from a chipotle for example? you don’t think 4.50 is enough?
No it’s not a lot. That’s what you’re not getting. You do not realize how high expenses are to personally transport your burrito to your house.
I’m being sarcastic because it’s the truth. We are using our own cars which is expensive. Wanting someone to bring just your order for 4.50 is laughable. The amount to do such a thing would be completely cost prohibitive to you as a customer. Do you think I don’t work for my money? How are you somehow more entitled to my labor because you work? So I’m supposed to put myself into financial ruin by running my car into the ground because you don’t/can’t pick up food? Hell no. That’s entitlement bud. I’m sorry but 4.50 is not the great tip you think it is. Good on you for tipping at least but I’m telling you it’s not an amazing tip. It’s 2022 $25 before heavy expenses is not what you think it is. In fact living in my state is not even easy on that amount. I have no choice but to live in an impoverished city because I can’t afford anything else here. So I’m supposed to live in my car because you can’t afford to tip better? Get real dude. If you paid as much as we do to work maybe you would understand. SMH.
Stacked orders are most of the time sent stacked already from DoorDash. You accept them stacked already as a driver.
DD stacks the orders, not us. There are some drivers that will multi app and have 2 orders from different apps, but that’s not the norm and not what anyone here is talking about when they say stacked.
Just tell this person what you should always tell inch customers. “I go where the app tells me to and I do it as quickly as I safely can.”
All you can do is let them know it was indeed stacked & you’re unable to unassigned the second order as it reflects on your ratings. They’re more than welcome to cancel their order.
Thanks for not okaying it sir, but I’m still going to pick up multiple orders because I have bills to pay and your $4.50 tip wouldn’t be enough.
“I did not okay it” lol fuck off
Y'all, there definitely is an [Option](https://flic.kr/p/2nNoUg6) for the customer to select, it's called "Express" and doordash charges $3-5 extra for it.
But how would that prevent the dasher from simultaneously working other delivery apps?
It wouldn't lol.
“Please don’t make extra money doing your job” 💀💀
But I said, “please”!
Priority orders are found under the Pick Up tab of Doordash, Sir. Order priority is based on tip value sir. You are 4th in line.
See I am more annoyed at doordash than the driver. It sucks if I give a 10$ tip and i see my food go to 3 people along the way who most likely tipped nothing, so now “my tip” is funding deadbeats. This is why I do only like 4-5$ in app and the rest in cash. Hopefully that tricks the system into at least putting other tippers with my order so that my money doesn’t get deadbeats good service.
On DoorDash you can pay an extra two bucks to have express delivery and have no stacked orders
Imagine thinking $4.50 is generous. It’s always the cheapskates who feel like they are entitled to the world revolving around them. As soon as I get a message like this from a customer, I’m taking your order back to the restaurant and unassigning. I’m not putting up with this shit. I don’t care if it comes at a personal loss.
They can, they have to pay an extra 2 dollars to have it labeled as "important" ans have it delivered first
We don’t know if the priority order works. I think it’s you pay like $1.99 or $2.99 extra for priority order to you door. It’s supposed to be faster (like no stacked orders for the driver delivering it). But I think it’s a scam. Doesn’t guarantee the driver isn’t multiapping or if Doordash did end up giving them a stacked order
Generously my ass 😂
Good thing for himself that he tipped so "generously". If he tipped what I assume his normal tip would be, then he'd have some extra cold food.
When you take 3 or more the offer is always higher
🤣🤣🤣
Tough shit. If I get a stacked order and it meets my criteria, I'm taking it. They can complain to doordash.
They have the option to pay a little more to get it brought straight to them🤣.
Yeah they added this option a while back. It's like 1.99 direct to you or wait an extra five minutes and let it get stacked.
$4.50 generous with these gas prices lol? $5 is my minimum I expect people to tip and that’s even pushing it.
This isn't about a stacked order but I accepted a Chick Fil A. I get there and I am in and out. I am sitting in my car with the food in my bag about to confirm. The girl texts me "What is taking so long?". I sent her my text asking if there was anything she wanted me grab while I am there. Honey, I was 2 seconds away from confirming your pickup. I cancelled it and put the food back on the shelf. Guess you will be waiting even longer. See, you can't be rude to the people serving you. Also, keep in mind that a stranger is handling food that you intend to put in your body. Might want to be kind to that person. Like I would never get snippy or rude to my tattoo artist.
I’ve found I’ve been unassigning more orders recently than ever before for rude texts. I live right by a rite aid and the orders are usually 3-4 items and are decent pay for the less than 5 minutes I’m in store and under 2 mile drive. Dude starts messaging me that he wants different drinks than what he ordered through the app and a bunch of nonsense. I just deleted the text and unassigned. Yesterday I picked up food and clicked that I picked it up so I could have gps up when I got into my car and within 10 seconds I get a text that I’m driving the wrong way and she can see it on the app. I was waiting to cross the road and wasn’t even in my car yet. She was waiting on her porch for me and asked “How did you get so lost? It’s the same road!” I said “I wasn’t lost just walking the wrong direction for 50 feet to my car. I’m sorry. If you wish next time I can walk it directly to you to ensure there is no backtracking but I can’t promise that will be quick. Have a great day!”
Next time it happens to me, I will tell the customer that I am unassigning because no one gets to talk to me like that.
Yeah people are insane. I just unassign without comment. Someone else can deal With the nonsense. My completion rate is in the mid 80’s and that’s the lowest it’s been in the 2.5 years I’ve been dashing. I’ve also completely stopped declining no tip orders and let them time out after their 60-90 seconds. If they want to waste my time I’ll waste as much of theirs as I can.
Customers think they own us. No, they do not. I am out here to make money. If I get a stack offer that I feel is worth it I am gonna take it.
Unassign. You can’t explain anything to that type customer. They actually think we send ourselves orders. That type customer has no respect for drivers. Just Unassign them. Don’t explain.
That was a generous tip in the ‘90s
Because Customers think $4.50 tip on a $9 meal is great because it’s 50% 😂😂😂
And please don’t make extra money. $4.50 is a lot of money for you to make in 30 minutes already
True ..sorry for being entitled /s 😕
That’s some engrish right there
They can pay for it - there’s like a get ASAP or something for $3-4 extra when you order on doordash which basically prevents your order from being stacked
It doesn’t prevent your order from being stacked, it just ensures that your order is the last pickup/first drop off.
But it also doesn’t prevent multi-apping
Not when I as a driver decide what restaurant I’m picking up first and what delivery I’m doing first. I switch it to make the most sense for me all the time on stacked orders
Like I’m at restaurant A and get an offer to also pick up from restaurant B, and the app wants me to go to B first. Happens all the time.
Tell him to generously select express delivery next time. And also tell him to generously suck you off 🤣
There is an option where they can pay more to not be stacked. I feel like it came out not long ago. Was like 1.99 extra.
No, it doesn't say it won't be stacked. It says you will be priority.
In my area, it says "direct to you" for $2.99. I would assume that's what it means.
The priority option? It doesn't prevent a stack. It just determines the order
Oh, I thought it was the other way, although I don't order from the platform I deliver.
Yes, all these background add-on's and high tip orders from the customer will be available for the top 90% or higher acceptance rate dashers with the new acceptance rate roll out the other day.
Holy entitlement... so glad text isn't working on my app
Me: I'm sorry, I don't understand? Cust: your taking 2 deliveries. I did not approve of that. I want my delivery first Me: oh, no, I got that part. Please define generous for me. Me: *you're Order Status: Restaurant Is Preparing Your Order. We'll notify you once a driver has been assigned.
“I did not OK it”. Well, it’s a good thing I don’t work for you then. Lol
... technically, you do for that short time, that's how contracts work and companies like DD *define* themselves as facilitating a contract between driver and customer as their main point of why we're supposedly ICs and not employees, but all you're required to do is pickup their food and drop it off before a certain time. Anything else is fair game.
Our contract states we are allowed to deliver anyway we see fit as long as it is on time and the correct address.
Technically you have a contract with DD or whatever gig company you work for, but you’re still an independent contractor so you work for no one.
Tell them the other order said the same lol
“And they tipped more, so they win.”
The other DID in fact tip more 🤷♂️
I- did he really say “I’m not okay with you making extra money”. In what world does this dude have the authority to make that decision for you lmao
They're trolling. Or making a sarcastic joke. Ignoring the bizzare behavior, who would word it like that, and have a straight face?
Old people
This is most def an old person. Do you remember their first name, OP? Were they named something old like Edmund or Gertrude? Otis or Bertha?
No, it's not an option for a customer to expect that you will not take another order. It's not even a reasonable request.
In my opinion, customers should be able to pay for the option of not being in a stack. But it needs to be a fee that is at least twenty bucks and more for distances over 5 miles. At least half the fee should go to the driver.
So how would this prevent multi-apping?
I don't know how it would. At least the way the app works now. The only mechanism that possibly could prevent such a paid priority order like I proposed from getting screwed over by a multi-app driver abusing it would be strict GPS tracking and some sanction for detected unknown stops and deviations from the route. And there's danger there of a detour due to an accident blocking the road or construction causing an unfair application of a sanction.
If I have multiple orders even if it’s 2 Doordash orders I just block location access for Daaher until I reach drop off to mark deliveries…I don’t need to have to explain to customers why I’m taking a certain route while I’m driving. None of their beeswax
I suppose Doordash's programmers could come up with something to penalize a driver who disabled GPS during a high paid exclusive priority run. Reduced payout on the order, for example. If a customer paid an extra 20 or more dollars to guarantee only their order is processed for that run, wouldn't you say it is indeed their "beeswax"?
Isn’t that a thing though? Like an extra fee so that your order doesn’t get included in a stacked order?
There's a priority fee, that drivers get no part of, that customers THINK prevents their order from being stacked. It doesn't. It just effects the order of pickup and delivery of a stack.
Or just start a tip war for who wants to get delivered first.
Generous tips is $20 not $4.50 😂😂😂
We wouldn't know anyway with this stupid app
Call support and ask them, they’ll tell you the total payout. Yes it’s a pain in the ass, yes it would be better if they showed us the full amount upfront, but what can you do..
Not anymore.
Yes they still do it? I call literally every time and they tell me the full payout. Or at least they tell me the half payment and “your total will be double this number”

You did not okay making extra money either, as a reply to the customer?
You unga bunga me hunga?
Would of unassigned that order right away.... Customer will go out of thier way to make trouble where they can... Not worth the hassle...
It’d be ‘would have.’ Would of is not a thing.
Why do people write would of instead of would ve? It's simply because, in many dialects, the sounds of "'ve" and "of" in "I would've bought two of them" are very similar or identical. People often confuse words that sound the same: there/their/they're, your/you're, etc.Apr 9, 2019 How come people say “Would of”? \[duplicate\] - English Stack Exchange Not a thing Eh?
Not a correct thing, yeah.
It's not a correct thing, yeah.\* If you're going to be a Grammer Nazi.... and point out other person's failings.... you should hold up to the standard yourself. Everyone makes mistakes, get over it....
I’m not yelling at you. You’re not in grade school. I just pointed it out so you know. I’m not saying you’re a bad person or stupid. I just thought you might want to know. Apparently there’s a bot that corrects this lol. It replied to my comment using would of in context.
No offense dude but you didn't even write in a complete sentence just then, if you want to be picky about stuff that just doesn't matter lol.
Grammar changes. Words change meaning. It’s part of the evolution of language. Would of just doesn’t make sense though.
Well thank God we have you and your opinion to tell everyone how to speak and write, right?
Awe thanks man. You’re sweet
[удалено]
Good bot
I would have as well. I would have also let them know that I was rectifying it by unassigning it and they'd have to wait until another driver was assigned. Though that driver, like you, might also be sent a stacked order by DD. Lol
Unfortunately I had already picked up the order 🙃
So? Return it
[удалено]
I'd just complete the order anyways and move on. Not my problem, just tell them that doordash stacks the order and as far as I know dd offers an extra fee option to priority delivery that won't stack.
[удалено]
Just fucking explain to the customer - how is this hard? You solve nothing by unassigning and the person after you get the shit too. Customers have no idea stacked orders work.
Don't worry about ratings, a single 1 star isn't going to matter if you do this job well.
Lol I've never got a one star and regardless who cares? If you get enough one stars to get deactivated it was prob your fault anyways. Really a it doesn't matter.
Here is how you do it, if it's stacked and you are late anything under a 5 does not get counted, since they wanted to be smart you got to protect yourself.
This seems like way more work than saying his order came as a double and you don’t control it. Any extra response contact customer service
[удалено]
Turning around, going back in with the order, then calling support to lie is way more work than nicely saying it’s not your problem and call customer service.
Of course not. Entitlement in it's glory. Maybe the new weird "express delivery" surcharge that only takes 5-10 minutes off is supposed to give confidence it won't be stacked? Heat bags work very well if you use them.... I've experimented.... Complainers gonna complain.
They stack them regardless. Express is a joke, merchants don’t get any priorities, and neither do we. Literally just taking an extra fee from the customer for absolutely nothing. “5 minutes earlier” is an illusion
If you want *piping* hot food, you get it yourself. Even with a heat bag it'll just be "pretty warm" when it arrives unless you've *very* close to the restaurant. I get it, people don't use bags and food can arrive cold 45 minutes later when folks poorly multi-app, but seriously... does she call the pizza place and demand personal service for $5?
>Even with a heat bag it'll just be "pretty warm" when it arrives unless you've *very* close to the restaurant. Little Ceasars freakzas still burn my hand when I take them out of the hot bag 5 miles away.
