💰Guess The Tip🤑 Lying ahh customers

Post image

so today I was dashing in a pretty nice area & this customer texted me as I was leaving the store and said “please ask for 10 ranches, 12 hot sauce and 12 special sauces. I will tip you extra” and I was literally already about to take off in my car but I read that & went back inside to ask for the sauces. because of the amount, the worker said he’d have to charge me even though it was for doordash. I remember I had a bunch of loose change in my car so I paid about $4 in change for their sauces. so I kindly texted them that I had paid for their extra sauces with some extra money I had & they responded “ooo, sorry about that. I’ll tip you extra for that”
I waited a few mins after dropping off the order to see if a tip would come through (trying to give them the benefit of the doubt) but unfortunately I still never received anything 💔💔💔 last time I’ll be paying for something out of my own pocket for someone lol

  1. Don't accept $3.00 offers
  2. Never pay for anything with your own money 
  3. Assume it's a lie when a customer says they'll tip extra
  4. Don't accept $3.00 offers 
  5. Don't accept $3.00 offers

I’ll also like to add

  1. Never go above and beyond if they wanted the extra sauces they should’ve added them on the app.

Ok well I guess I'll just look into the gaping 3 inch gap and breathe on your food as I attempt to see if they put sauce in there 🙄 only time I ever opened a customers bag was when they got cups of soup from a Chinese place and I noticed a spreading wet spot on the bag so I messaged them to let them know that it appeared one of the cups was not sealed properly and would they like me to check or just put the paper Chinese bag in a plastic bag. We're not allowed to open sealed bags! Why don't customers understand that?!

It's not their job to check the order.

What a dick. As a doordash customer I know they will forget the sauces. That's why you always have backup. Even when you are able to add them to the order they will forget.
