That's placing your anger and low pay on the customers, not the corporation that's holding 50% of your profits. You want to be mad, be mad at them, refuse to drive for them, demand a better share.
My last meal from door dash breaks down as:
So sorry I didn't want to tack on any more to my $85 dollar order for 2 people. "Recommended tip" would have put me over $95 dollars. Let me put it this way, if I paid $85 dollars for a delivery order and you only made $8, we're both getting screwed.
The fun thing, I'd be willing to tip more if they didn't ask for it up front. If I received my order in a timely manner and it's still hot, I'd gladly tip 20%. But being forced to choose ahead of time? No way I know how it's going to get there, that's why I call it a bribe. The driver isn't doing their job and I'm tipping them on a job well done, I'm bribing them to get my food quickly.
Granted that was the last time and I was disgusted with how much I paid, so I go and pick it up myself now, so I guess no money for anyone except the restaurant.
If you're only getting $4-5 dollars for 30 minutes, I'd suggest going to McDonald's. They're paying better than doordash.
