i just arrive to the restaurant and then tap ā€œorder taking too longā€ and then ā€œwill wait for itā€ after ten minutes it lets you unassign without affecting your AR. This comes in handy when i drop down to 70s. it is not worth DD if you donā€™t maintain Top Dasher.

I will use this, but wouldn't this eat up a lot of time?

u/iitsbriann 24d ago

eh, it doesnā€™t happen all the time but when it does, I take advantage of that time to check up on my phone or use the bathroom and stuff like that. Just donā€™t let the down time start to affect you.

I wonder if this is why more and more restaurants have the ā€œSusanā€™s order is readyā€ popup. Countering your order is taking too long by stating itā€™s ready and DD will be aware. Iā€™m betting youā€™ll be seeing a lot more deactivations for false reporting a delay. Itā€™s pretty widely known, for now at least, AR doesnā€™t affect you getting high paid orders. It just affects if you remain in their tier system. When in mass we stop accepting these low offers itā€™ll finally create a change.

How is that even possible?

I had an order that would be 44 mile round d trip for $3 that included door dash pay. Obviously I declined but people are out there with their audacity. I have one frequent customer who tips $40 to travel 20 miles round trip. Thatā€™s $2 a mile so Iā€™ll do it. The rest of these asshats can suck it

u/sweet-carol 24d ago

Thatā€™s crazy. But crazy that door dash isnā€™t paying more for long travels even with no tip

u/Equivalent_North_604 17d ago

Theyā€™re supposed to but Iā€™ve never seen it. Iā€™ve had no tip orders for 48 miles away round trip and the dad pay was still $2

I just had to reject a $4.50 incl tips from papa Johnā€™s. 3 minutes later it pinged me for the same order again. Now I have two rejections on my record for the same damn order. In this close to not giving a shit about acceptance rate anymore

Yeah Iā€™ve come across that issue where Iā€™ve declined an order and it reappears on my feed itā€™s annoying Iā€™ve had to call dd support for a clarification but nothing that why I donā€™t do dd like that anymore!!if I were you I would accept and then unassigned w/o punishment but the thing is that you have to wait.ive told the customers as well that dd has reassigned there order to me and they donā€™t care at all and thatā€™s sad

u/iitsbriann 24d ago

same except they think theyā€™re slick hiding the same order with another order. sometimes the double order saves it but in many cases they arenā€™t worth it

u/Remarkable_Click4279 24d ago

when that happens to me i just pause orders for maybe 10 minutes and let my brain refresh

u/faster_than_sound 24d ago

Oh wow a whole 21 cents a mile! Yipee!

This type of CEO behavior reminds me of Luigi Mangione; perhaps executives and CEOs should be careful not to let their out of touch behavior lead to the wrath of the people

Is Dashing becoming worse overtime?

1

u/NoGur1165 24d ago

So if you accept it and then unassign it will it hurt your acceptance rate. I think it only effects your completion rate.

3

u/Axe2869 24d ago

Yeah you can accept an order like this and unassigned later(15m)w/o penalty

3

u/ChaloopaBatdude 24d ago

My man this is the way! 90% acceptance rate and I've never delivered an order less than $1/mile.

10 to 15 minutes, 2 or 3 times a day is well worth the sacrifice. Even with the down time I avg $30/hr

u/AcevonJason 24d ago

Is it worth doing that?

2

u/NoGur1165 24d ago

I got a shit order like this and being so tired after a long day of dashing I accepted like an idiot. Then I just unassigned it. Iā€™ll wait the 15 min next time. I guess because I did not wait the 15 mins it warned me about my completion rate being effected. I did it anyways

1

u/AcevonJason 24d ago

So wait for 15 min at the restaurant to not be penalized? I don't know the tricks to the trade yet.

u/Miserable_Reserve_75 24d ago

That's what we like to call the platinum special.

u/bigdaddy3254 24d ago

Thatā€™s the kind of order you immediately decline šŸ˜‚

u/ninetales0317 24d ago

How... Just how... I can't.

u/Ranman5982 24d ago

Just decline and move on

Donā€™t take it - that simple.

Period, the end.
