DoorDash problem, still tipped

This week, we ordered from Walmart grocery and the DoorDash driver accidentally delivered my order to someone else and their order to us. He ended up reversing them, but the other people had kindly put our two frozen items into their freezer to keep them safe and forgot to set them back out. Walmart said they were bringing them into the store and I could come get them, but nah. The whole reason I order delivery (or pickup) is that I hate going inside. Anyway, I didn’t change my tip because: 1) Dude still drove to my house, 2) had to drive extra because of an honest mistake, 3) gas is expensive. I did request a refund from Walmart for the 2 items I didn’t receive. But I figure Walmart can spare the $15 more than a guy who’s just trying to hustle. I hope he has better luck next…

Anyway, I didn’t change my tip because: 1) Dude still drove to my house, 2) had to drive extra because of an honest mistake, 3) gas is expensive.

I did request a refund from Walmart for the 2 items I didn’t receive.

But I figure Walmart can spare the $15 more than a guy who’s just trying to hustle. I hope he has better luck next time.

And if you’re a retail employee or independent contractor or delivery person of any type, please know that I will do everything in my power to support you and get any remedy I’m due from a corporation that can afford it.

Everyone else, stay mad. But stay mad at the right people.
