“For most markets where DoorDash operates, customers are prompted to tip on the checkout screen, with a middle option already selected by default. If they want to, they can adjust the tip later from the status screen while awaiting their food, or even after it’s delivered. That’s changing today; while blaming New York City’s minimum wage increase for delivery workers, DoorDash announced that for “select markets, including New York City,” tipping is now exclusively a post-checkout option”
It seems so ridiculous given tipping fatigue, that DoorDash is making what should be a given sound like a negative.
Not the person you replied to, but here’s my story.
It took weeks for me to be able to get my first job. I would either “fail” those online tests to see if you’re a “good fit” for the company or I would not do well in the interview. I finally got a job, but it involved working overnight.
My second job kinda just landed in my lap. A friend of mine let me know about a job opening at the place they worked at. I applied, interviewed, and got the job. (I suspect my friend talked with the person who decided to hire me, but I’ve never asked him to confirm.)
I was eventually let go from my second job. I spent a few weeks recovering from the shock of being let go. (I had what I think was an anxiety attack from it, and, since I didn’t know what was going on at first, it only got worse as I started to get more anxious from being anxious.)
After I got better, I applied for my third job. I spent a few weeks applying to jobs but, again, kept failing the personality tests or the interviews. Eventually, I was able to get another job, though. I actually got it pretty easily because it was a similar position to my first job, just at a different company.
