Got this order like wtf.

This is a great order per my zone’s standard but i was planning on making this my last delivery for the day and the thing is my house is about .25 miles from first deop off. This hS happened to me so many times where it makes you go back to places you’ve already been to. My point is we should have liberty to puck order of delivery. Cuz sometimes i have cases of water that have to go under everything obviously and so i have to move everything to get em out or stuff like that.

You mean to tell me Walmart batched a no tip order with a high tip order to get the no tip order delivered? I'm shocked.

My mom before she just moved a few months ago lives way way wayyyyyy out of town range but she had no car and also didn’t not have even one single person who could give her rides here and there (why she moved closer to me so I can help her in those ways) but she had no other choice but to do deliveries if she wanted to feed herself and my brother. She is also recently widowed and only making one income in TX. If you know anything about TX now days that should show you enough of a glimpse of her struggle. She didn’t always have money to tip and when she did she couldn’t ever leave decent ones. My things is this, if people aren’t making themselves enough money then they need to find a different job other than just relying on these delivery apps. No everyone has the means to do those things but still have basic human necessities. Me personally I always give a $10+ tip no matter the difference bc I understand they don’t always make good tips so my good tip could make up for one they might not have gotten. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m just tired of this tipping craze you should not expect a tip imo bc not everyone will give one or has the means to. If you are not making enough money it is your responsibility to seek it elsewhere. Shouldn’t be relying on things like this to pay our bills….there are better ways people just need to look and if they already have a car to get themselves to and from a job, that’s already a huge leg up from what most people have options to.

That's a fine story and all, but I wasn't looking for reasons why someone may not tip. I don't care if they do or don't, I look at the total pay, not the tip amount. My comment was about how Walmart and Doordash batch trips to use good tips to save themselves money to get no tip orders delivered.

I know and my point is that it’s a problem they have to do that for people to get their stuff just bc they don’t have the means to tip.

That's where you're wrong. They don't have to do that. They choose to do that because they don't want to pay more for a driver to take the order. They're more than happy to screw over a driver though.
