Thinking about getting in the content creation, but I think there's a few things that hold me back

- I'm awkward af
- I don't have a great voice
- I think there are miscellaneous things I could change too

You don't have to watch the whole thing or anything, just wanted to get some feedback. You don't even know how much I appreciate it. Is this a good first attempt?

i forgot to ask, do you live in a place that snows? reason i ask is because cars will last half as long if you live somewhere where it snows

have you ever had someone complain if your order wasnt correct?

also, have you ever had a security guard give you a hard time about an order for whatever reason?

Yeah it snows a lot where I'm from (MN)

Customers do complain that the order was incorrect to me and I can only refer them to customer care. If the restaurant assures me that they've given me everything then that is as far as I can go.

I've had customers complain PLENTY of times that I delivered to the wrong address. There's like a zero percent chance that happened, because I check every address I deliver to at least a handful of times. I can also go back into google maps to check it after the delivery. People will demand that I go back and redeliver their food from their neighbors doorstep a couple doors down. I just assure them that I delivered to the address on the order then they get mad at me lol. Not much I can do when people ordered delivery to the wrong address and don't realize it until a few minutes after I've performed a no contact delivery. GrubHub does not require that I do anything beyond delivering to the address on the order. Even if a customer contacts me well before the order is delivered then I still can't get in trouble for delivering to the address on the order. GrubHub doesn't allow customers to change the address on the order after it has been placed. They'd make you cancel that order and place a new order.

Never had security anywhere give me trouble. I get the impression that everyone is used to the idea of gig economy delivery people being everywhere. I just have my phone at the ready to show them what I'm there for just in case.

That's actually reassuring to hear that you get a lot of snow where you are. A lot of the reason I'm asking some of these questions is because, well you might have already guessed it, I'm considering doing the same thing lol.

I asked the security guard question because, I'm a security guard and I work for a big apartment complex. A lot of the tenants that live here request the grubhub drivers to deliver straight to the door, but a lot of them try to pass it off to me instead. And they give me a hard time if I try to make them go up to their apartment.

Yeah wear and tear is always a concern. I try to drive as easy as I can. Gotta keep up on maintenance and all that. I can do around 200 miles a day over 8-10 hours.

I used to do Lyft before covid and I liked it. Stopped completely due to covid and won't ever consider doing it again until I'm vaccinated at the very least.

I do UberEats also on the side when GrubHub isn't sending me orders so I can always stay busy.

It definitely pisses me off when people don't tip. It's the same people too. I will give them zero hint of friendliness if I see them in person, but the vast majority of deliveries are no contact. GrubHub sometimes adds good bonuses to no tip orders though because people won't accept them. Those still annoy me, but you can't argue that it pays bad at that point.

I basically accept every order I receive and it tends to work out pretty well. I've experimented with rejecting a bunch of orders and being picky or even just rejecting some, but this way works better. It seems like the algorithm tends to treat people with high acceptance rates more favorably over the long run with the super well paying orders here and there. If I get 2-3 orders that pay out at $20-25 each in a night then then that tends to keep my hourly earnings up pretty high as long as the other orders paid ok and were completed in a timely manner.

One of the biggest frustrations is restaurants who don't have the food ready in a somewhat reasonable time. I've waited 20-30 minutes at restaurants before. That stuff really stings, because I'm not compensated extra. Getting in and out of restaurants super fast is a big deal.

I'm like a step above this. I love stages that have variety to them, regardless of tournament legality, BUT without being chaotic or stupid.

Like, a good example is Hyrule Castle 64. Love how the layout is so varied, and it's so huge, but with stage hazards off, it's completely viable as a fair stage.

not gonna lie, i hate hyrule caste lol

DKWill is a lab monster but yeah, he doesnt compete as much lately. He and ChunkyKong both did a first to 10 with Fatality this past week and they both lost 10-1 because Fatality is a god and Falcon sucks for DK.

proguides says he is the best dk in the world. but proguides tends to not always be accurate. the few times DKWill has entered tournaments, im impressed at how well he does. and i noticed him nd chunkykong are active on eachothers twitch chats. i like that they are passing notes to each other.

Have you ever ordered with the app before? They seal the bag with 3 or 4 stickers that you can't get away with tampering without them knowing. You could buy some somewhere I guess, but going through that effort to steal a few fries or the occasional rogue nugget is asinine.

yeah i have. i dont mean eating the food without the person noticing. i just mean eating it because fuck it

my thoughts:

• clusterfuck of fast food. but i like it
• two exxon gas stations within a block of each other, why?
• seems like an odd place for a diner
• again, lots of fast food. wouldnt mind getting some P'Zones from pizza hut

I usually hit around 40 hours per week. Sometimes more and sometimes less. Tips have been making up around 55-60% of my income lately or even a bit more. That's living the good life lol. $30+ an hour. Lunch time can be a bit iffy like sometimes good, but often just ok. Around 4-8pm you get the bonkers orders that can make your whole day.

I track all of my earnings and they've been up lately. I complete way more deliveries per day now too. You get way faster when you have a ton of navigational stuff about your area memorized. It gets even easier when you've delivered to the same customer ten times already. There's tons of people who order delivery food everyday and sometimes multiple times per day. The job has gotten significantly easier.

this is some good info

do you worry about ware and tear on your car? im sure yo do way more miles than ever
do you do uber or lyft? the one where you pickup passengers
does it piss you off when someone doesnt tip?
have you ever eaten someone else's food? >_>

does most of that money come from tips or normal pay?

I almost always have battlefield selected as my stage

I don't mind what stage as long as it isnt some weird ass stage. I prefer if the stages at least somewhat resemble legal ones though. with a bottom blast zone, two ledges, etc

Also was it a cookie from insomnia Cookie

Is that a cookie made while being unable to sleep due to insomnia? Because if so...no my baking skills are about as good as DKs recovery *badum tsss*
