This is also the implied response of every doordash delivery person everytime I pay $35 for what shows up as a cold—ass paninni 75minutes after my order and I've irrevocably "pre" tipped them 18% for the delivery.
Every.. time? That is just absolutely insane to me. I've literally never used that kind of service and I can't understand how so many people pay so much money for that it
You must have a lot of disposable income or something
It's a mixed bag. Imagine having only three restaurants that deliver to you (and two suck) and then all the sudden you have a whole city of restaurants that are available to you and you hardly ever have time or want to deal with going into the city to do a pickup. That's my experience. I don't use it everyday or every week, but it just stinks that when I do it's very expensive and hey, maybe that's justiable (freemarket whatever), but to have service issues where clearly zero effort was made to transport the stuff appropriately feels like a real "hehe".
It seems like it would be much cheaper and better to just go to the restaurant and eat there instead of dumping money on doordash
i had to use it when i didn't have a car and couldn't get groceries or whatever sometimes. nice little tool to keep the poor poorer
Or like, what if you're drunk/high and traveling isn't really an option, but you're hungry? I've never used DoorDash, but it seems like that's the type of thing that'd get the majority of business.
Ok, I'll do that when Burger King lets me smoke a fat blunt in their dining room.
