DoorDash now warns you that your food might get cold if you don’t tip::The app-based delivery service is alerting customers that drivers may not take their order in a timely manner if there is no tip included upfront.

The worst part is some lazy restaurants just link to doordash instead of paying proper delivery drivers so you can't even avoid door dash if you like certain restaurants.

I mean in fairness before these services most restaurants did not have delivery options at all, so I don’t think this is that surprising? It was not long ago that your delivery options in many places were just pizza or Chinese.

Yeah but that's the problem. They're essentially outsourcing something they couldn't afford in the first place so DD becomes the bad guy for not paying their employees instead. Then the customer bitches at the driver's because the drivers don't want shitty pay for their work. Stop using DD.
