DoorDash is an app that allows customers to have food and groceries delivered directly to their door. When using the app, customers will have the option of tipping their driver, though this isn\u2019t a requisite. Despite this, it\u2019s considered common etiquette to tip your driver, with expert Thomas Farley, recommending that customer\u2019s tip at least 20%. This isn\u2019t always the case, however. In a viral video that\u2019s resurfaced, we see a TikToker explain a situation that happened between a customer and an employee: \u201cThis DoorDash customer requested drop off at their apartment which was on the ninth floor. They provided a tip of one dollar to their dasher. When the dasher left the food at the front desk of the building the customer said this is not the location I requested.\u201d \u201cTo which the Dasher responded and said the elevators are unfortunately out of service for emergency repairs.\u201d \u201cThey have stairs,\u201d the customer wrote. The TikToker then prompts her viewers to discuss the situation, asking if they\u2019d be happy to walk up nine flights of stairs for a one-dollar tip. TikTok viewers debate viral $1 tip situation TikTok were happy to weigh in on the situation, and as is common, had very divisive opinions. One wrote: \u201cI was a dasher, and my job is to get the customer their food \u2013 tip or not. I\u2019d walk up the stairs and hope they enjoyed their delivery experience.\u201d Another simply stated: \u201cIts a JOB.\u201d However, the majority favored the delivery driver, saying: \u201cI dash and I get enough exercise delivering! for $1 hell nah I wouldn\u2019t on the 9th floor that\u2019s insane.\u201d Another concurred, \u201cI wouldn\u2019t walk up 9 flights of stairs to go to my own dang home let alone some rando lol.\u201d DoorDash drivers are often the subject of tipping quandaries. Another worker went viral in November for eating the customer\u2019s food after they didn\u2019t tip him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DoorDash driver bails when expected to climb nine flights of stairs for $1 tip DoorDashA DoorDash driver refused to deliver an order to a customer\u2019s door, after they found out they\u2019d only been tipped one dollar.
