I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don’t have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my food go now that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you, but if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you.
“Fair enough. I’ll defer reporting you for lack of delivery. Hope your day gets better!”
If I’m ordering delivery I’m probably not in the greatest place either, but I’m not heartless.
“I’m sorry to hear you’re having a bad day. Bring me my food unscathed, and I’ll place a second order you can pick up and keep. What do you want to drink?”
Wouldn’t some other driver be able to pick that one? I don’t think it would work too well…
Don’t do it through the delivery, set it for pickup and give them the details.
I would guess this person has reached their breaking point many many times.
So… what do you say to that?
Screenshot and send to door dash personally. Sorry you’re having a bad day but maybe I am too? Maybe I’m having a worse day and couldn’t bring myself to cook. Dasher wants to get food at the place I ordered from? Awesome. Go for it. This is stealing though and idc how bad of a day you’re having. You shouldn’t be delivering food if you can’t… Deliver the food
It’s not stealing really, because you can report it for a refund, and the refunds on those apps happen pretty quickly. It would be annoying, but you would get your money back. Your money is basically in escrow until a while after you get your food, so you can also get refunded if your order is messed up. The driver doesn’t even really get in trouble unless they mess up often, they just don’t get the fare for that trip.
I mean it’s still a shitty thing to do, but it’s more like getting bad service than stealing. The same outcome would happen if your drivers vehicle broke down, for instance.
The driver doesn’t even really get in trouble unless they mess up often
This is 100% either a strike on the driver’s account or they will just “fire” them outright. Especially if it’s doordash. Fuck doordash.
I mean, me personally? “I fuckin feel that, no worries”
Most people? “That sucks” and contact doordash support for a redund prolly
Remember you’re hungry when you get this message. IDK about you but rhat turns me into a different beast altogether.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d be pissed. However, I’ve been in a similar state, and making them feel worse than they already are really isn’t something I want to do. I’m certainly not some saint that instantly forgives and forgets, but this person clearly has some serious problems and I don’t want to make it worse for them
Hangry is no joke. First thing my wife asks me if I have an attitude is if I’m hungry. 9/10 I am.
“Dam, sorry to hear that, hope you get better.” reported
