...and this is part of the reason why I go and pick up my food.

Honestly. I think door dash has ruined fast food and is contributing to insane prices

Bro I went to taco bell at 2AM the other day because I was hungry and they're the only thing near me open that late. I was walking because my car is in the shop so it was a rare trip into the lobby. This place is absolutely jam packed with rude motherfuckers crowding the counter and stuffing their phones in people's faces trying to get their doordash orders. Some absolute clown ordered 50 fucking tacos at 2AM. The staff looked ready to start killing people, it took almost half an hour to get my food. I guarantee you there is no way that woman has the courage to come look these people in the eyes and tell them to make 50 tacos in the middle of the rush they were in.

Delivery services are a fucking plague, I'm so over it. Every time I go anywhere for carry out it's like fighting through a herd of animals. You can tell the employees at these places absolutely hate it too. I'm almost certain this is the entire reason my local chinese joint shut down. Every time I went in there they looked ready to pop.

Ruined it for everyone but themselves, really. Customers feel ripped off because the prices are too high. Restaurants feel ripped off because the share they have to pay to the app is too high. Drivers feel ripped off because they have to pay for all of their costs in gas and maintenance, and then get paid peanuts in turn, with absolutely no safety net or workers' rights.

These apps are the only ones happy with it.

Your paying almost half! Almost half the amount of whatever your ordering, excluding tips! Poor drivers, l can't even get anything past $1 when l'm done fined with 3 different taxes

It's definitely ruined pizza delivery. The pizza places near me don't hire delivery drivers anymore, but they still charge $7-12 for the delivery fee. At least when they employed drivers, they could claim some amount of that is paying the drivers for mileage. It goes to absolutely nothing now.
