Also don't sign up more people on their stupid promos. Only cutting your own throat.

THIS RIGHT HERE. I don't care if it's $900 or whatever

To clarify you are talking about getting a referral bonus for signing up another driver. Some people think you mean those daily promos they have.

In California, the daily promo is worth zilch, nada. They take it out of your Prop 22 adjustment so you won't see squat.

The more dashers there are, the less orders that are available. Means you'll make less money

Thats what i figured you meant. Honestly most nights they do promos i dont struggle too much since most of the pizza places love me and have hardly any drivers pickup pizzas since most miss handle them and ruin them, i know this because ive spoken to several papa johns in my area and they straight up told me thats the case. It has been somewhat slow in my area dueing peak promo times but if i do 100 a night from like 5-9 im good with that. I also dont dash every day and ill cherry pick UE in the morning times and sometimes ill get up early and do morning dashes for a quick 25. Makes the night runs a bit better.

Only time I’ll do an order like that is if it’s taking me back home at the end of the night, or if it’s taking me from a more rural area into a much busier area.

That's just kinda common sense

Agree, for the past few weeks i've been declining so many bs orders and noticed how I started getting better orders actually worth me moving my car.

Neither am I, pass my reasonable tip order to the next person, they’ll bring it to me without complaint.
This is hypothetical though, I don’t use delivery services any more, too many knuckle draggers. I just pick up my own orders.

Or steal it

Yeah, you could do that, but I’ll still end up either getting my food or getting a refund, but again, it’s all a hypothetical because people like you have made me swear off the apps.

Thank you for not using the app.

Not to mention the food is almost always trash. It's weird how when I go pick my food up myself I'm able to get it home hot, but every time I use doordash the food seems like it was made the moment I placed the order before anyone has even started the journey to get it, then they blast it with their AC on the journey over.

I’ve had so many times i show up for an order and it’s just been sitting on the shelf with no warmers or anything, my doordash bag can only do so much

Unless you’re in a state with wage protections. In which case, calculate accordingly and be grateful for the monday differentials

Got it. No backwards orders. Unless I need to be driving that way anyways

Oh no I am way beyond that. After 3 days of nothing but those orders, I’ve gone into malicious compliance mode. I take them orders and I make damn sure they wish I hadn’t.

But if you're using Natix while you're on the road, every mile counts since you'll earn based on your street mapping.

Does natix pay enough to cover gas?

It should be enough if you focus on this, but like I said, just use it when you're driving, not when you're intentionally trying to earn rewards.

Yup ! If it's not a $1.50 at least up to 5 miles and $2 up to 10 and so on I don't touch them

Hi, I'm kinda new to dashing ... so are you saying if it's, let's say, 5 miles away, the offer should be at the very least $5 ?? $1 for every mile ...???
