Also, make sure you never hand the wrong order to someone. It is a pain to retrieve.

Most people expect $2-5 tip is enough for their single meal/fast food/coffee delivery because percentage wise, it is a lot compare to their mea. Time wise for dasher, even if the place were within literally down the street or same building, still take over 15-20mins for orders like that and with $2 base pay, barely fed minimum wage and definitely under most state's min wage.
Tried it and dropped it within a 2 week, didn't even put my own bank info for withdraw and they mailed me a check at the end of the year for cash out. DD probably works better in a city when everything is tightly packed and customers would actually COME DOWN to get their stuff. Going up and down apartment would burn another 10 mins and even more just for parkings.
Oh, forgot promo/guarantee bonus during weekend/rush hour where DD/UE would pump their $2 base to X when you to do Y orders, those are the only time you will meet $10-15/hr. But aldi/lidl/walmart here are hiring for $16+ already.
i think i heard somewhere that some customer believe doordash employees get paid hourly, which is why they don't tip well or tip at all.

That's the ultimate rub with food delivery services. They don't make anyone money. It doubles the customer's cost, it increases the restaurant's cost and the driver barely makes money on it. And trying to tweak any of those things just breaks it's already delicate balance even more.
seems like the only people really seeing the money is doordash corporate.
