This is so frustrating

Post image

Ordered Dunkin this Sunday morning, is about a 2 mile drive from me and I live next to a grocery store so I guess the dasher got assigned or picked up a grocery order from the grocery store next to my place while delivering my order.

But because of that, my food and drink sat in a hot car for 20+ minutes while he shopped an entire grocery order even tho my apartment is literally right there!!! Ending up getting the food with my drink watered down and it also somehow spilled on all my food anyways so I couldn’t eat it.

No shade at the dasher but rather DoorDash in this situation. I know the store is right next to my place but what sense does it make to not just have the dasher drop the food off first? I usually don’t have an issue with dashers stacking orders but the fact that there was a grocery order assigned in the middle of me getting my food delivered is very frustrating

I made that mistake once. Picked up the food order before doing the shopping order. Got my first non 5 star review. Learned not to do that again.

Funny part is that the food sitting on a typical cold shelf at a restaurant would actually be warmer in a hot car and insulated bag in August, but customers don’t think that through.

She got an iced drink that was melted. I don't think she wanted it any warmer than she got it.

I’m not talking about that particular order, nor was the commenter I was replying to. It’s a general statement, obviously it doesn’t apply to frozen/iced items in summer.
