Hi Everyone,

I've been virtually pounding the pavement for the last 2 months and am getting nowhere.

I'm looking for a part time entry-level job (cashier/sales associate, server, etc).

I know some places have likely passed because of my availability (I can only work evenings Tue-Sat, full availability Sun/Mon), but I'm hoping someone might be able to give feedback on my resume or recommend a free service that could give me some advice.

Thanks in advance,

A girl who desperately needs to stop doing Doordash

Hello,

I recently applied for a job and had an interview last Thursday.

The manager I interviewed with said they were looking to make a decision earlier this week (by Wednesday). I haven't heard anything either way, but the posting is still up on their website

I don't know what any of this means or if there's still any chance.

I do have a ft job and this is part time, we discussed my availability in the interview and she mentioned it would be perfect for the shifts they are looking for.

Really need this, I'm Doordashing every day right now and can't keep doing it.

I know I'll only know for sure if I either get a call or the posting is removed, but please send some luck my way.

I'm still a fairly new Dasher and have been hustling in the evenings and weekends.

This last weekend was disastrous (2 destroyed tires that required replacing and almost 2 days down), so I've been trying to hustle more to make up.

Last night, I was in a busy zone and no orders for almost 30 minutes. There's another busy zone less than 10 minutes away that's closer to home, drive over there and no orders again for 30 minutes. I give up and go home at 7:30.

Head out tonight and my first order is a Walmart pickup, batch of 8 orders. I had one about a week ago where the app only let me scan 3/6 orders and I ended up going back to the store. Tonight, it was only letting me scan one order and the Walmart employee said the other 7 orders had already been picked up. I chatted with support and they said they cancelled "the" order, but just canceled the first order in the batch.

I drive to the customer and even though the app let me navigate, I couldn't get back to their order to complete the delivery. I chatted with support again and they manually mark it as complete. They ended chat just as I was asking if I would be able to continue Dashing.

After a 45 minute phone call with support, they cancel all of the remaining orders in the batch and apply partial pay for the orders. Cool, I'm ready to go again and hustle for the rest of the night.

I reopen the app and now it says my account is locked for 24 hours for security review because they've "detected suspicious activity".

I'm going to lose it. Please tell me this is exceptionally bad luck.

Hi Everyone,

I in Canada and just recently started Doordashing as a side gig to bring in extra money and I already want to give up.

Today was the first time I had Dashed for a full day and I'm trying just to write it off as a bad day.

I Dashed from 10:30 am to roughly 6:30 pm and in total made around $100, minus $20 for gas. I would have done another 2 hours, but I was just about out of gas and have no money for more right now.

I'm hoping get advice on some orders I had:

\- a shop order with a heavy (for me, I'm petite) 36 lb bag of dog food. I struggled with this and it was no tip. Can/should I ask support to restrict me from heavy item orders?

\- another shop order that's required two trips to deliver everything to their apartment all the way through the building and no tip. I haven't declined an order yet, but this seems like a case to do so. What are immediate red flag to decline an order?

\- one customer who I felt was rude when messaging me when delivering their order. They lived in a townhouse community that was a pain to navigate and was messaging me that their delivery instructions were clear (not so much) without me asking. GPS started telling to turn around when I was close to their unit and they started messaging me asking what I was doing

\- apartment building in general. GPS seems to almost never navigate you to the main entrance and do you auto-decline orders that ask you to deliver to their apartment (vs meeting you at the door)?

Any tips/tricks would be appreciated!

Thank you
