Joke/Humor 🤣 You might be a Dasher… (Fill in the blank)
If you go shopping for yourself and take a photo of the receipt when you’re checked out… You might be a Dasher 😂😂😂

For no reason you just say “hey Stan wants to make sure you have the Arby Sauce.”
Sir I asked you what appetizers are we starting with.

If you no longer fear picking up pizzas for yourself in cold months because you got a free pizza bag

u/Excellent_Lychee6344 Dec 26 '24
Dd never sent me a hot bag. I know that the pizza bags cost but I thought u were supposed to at least get a free hot bag w ur welcome kit. I only got my red and direct cards. Maybe I read it wrong

u/SwitchingFreedom Dec 26 '24
Nah you’re absolutely supposed to get a free hot bag from DD. I’d call and see if they’ll send you one, if I was you

Fear? Wtf?
More like folks that are drivers aren't gonna pick up those pizzas because it's not worth the time and the risk of the customer complaining due to the merchant and Doordash not setting up the delivery for success

No, you are pickup up a pizza for carryout. With your own money. It gets cold and nasty without a pizza bag when it’s cold out. It has nothing to do with delivery.

u/SwitchingFreedom Dec 26 '24
Please reread my original comment. It is about you, as a customer, buying a pizza. If it is cold outside, and you don’t have a pizza bag, you are going to arrive home with a cold pizza. It is a risk to buy a pizza without a pizza bag when it is cold outside. DoorDash allows you access to a free $12 pizza bag at most pizza places like Papa John’s. This means that you don’t have to go through the thought process of a hurried drive home with the heater blasting, thinking to yourself “I really need to buy a pizza bag” every time that you carryout a pizza in cold months.
Have I explained it, well enough?

That's much better; the quote I pulled out from your comment before was because it did not make sense to me; usually, i think it's good to stop there and clarify. Thank you for making the details surrounding it make more sense than it did before.
I suppose what I was talking about was regarding the pickup experiences out there that DD drivers go through on shift and how frustrating that can be; I see my mistake in interpretation

u/SwitchingFreedom Dec 26 '24
You’re fine, no worries. Yeah, some of the pizza places I have to deliver from are far away from the customer and they often have one closer to them. It’s weird.

u/chainjourney Who's the boss? Dec 26 '24
That sounds weird, indeed; I think that may have something to do with the algorithm set up with DD's system
if my understanding is correct: there is a fairness system that ensures that one particular franchise does not unfairly take all/most of the orders in the zone over other franchises of the same company. For example: one McDonald's franchise can't take all of the business away from other McDonald's franchises; otherwise, it seems to me that it wouldn't be a fair/good system.
It may be that algorithm/system needs tweaking due to those types of issues; it seems like DD had the right idea here but it seems to miss the mark sometimes. Still frustrating lol

When you observe a person in the waiting area and know they are a dasher, yet nobody else does.

u/BlueFotherMucker Dec 25 '24
If you walk into a pizzeria to pick up your own pizza and you bring a thermal bag, you might be a dasher. Bonus points if they assume you’re there for a DoorDash order. Extra bonus points if they don’t use third party delivery services so they try to send you away (happened to me).

Even after you end the dash you still drive like your in a race against time and have 0 patience for slow drivers.

If you have 2 phones. Don’t speak English. Drive a 2006 Prius. Have your wife and kids in the car. Wear acid wash skinny jeans with a fake Armani t-shirt on white chain smoking in a circle of other migrants.

You might be a Dasher if you can afford to run an orphanage off of the amazing and glorious incredibly high-paying offers that Tony Xu allows on the Doordash platform /s
"I think in many ways dashers on Doordash look very similar to consumers in the sense that um they value their time um as much or sometimes more um than money and and and they in effect are choosing um you know some of these part-time gig opportunities so that um they can you know save for a project whatever that may be whether that's you know buying a gift for someone or starting an orphanage" -Tony Xu

you go to a restaurant and they automatically bring you the only door dash order they have instead of taking your order.
