    The Yelp ratings for this particular Taco Bell should tell you everything you need to know; 2 out of 5 stars!

    Last time I checked, it was DoorDash, not “Illegally park my truck curbside at a shopping mall, walk all the way through Macy’s, ask a security guard for directions, and go down a level to deliver to a cell phone store”-Dash...

    And, now that I’m at the mall, DoorDash is trying to send me back inside to pick up from restaurants in the mall. :luvya:

    After turning down an order from Michael’s Arts and Crafts in Warrington, I accepted an order from a high-end BYOB place just around the corner called Turning Point; There are locations in Newtown, North Wales, and Warrington (where I went this time; I believe their might be at least one in New Jersey as well)...

    I love picking up from Turning Point because their restaurants are very clean and well-kept, the staff is always very friendly (and front-of-house is generally staffed by curvy women in their twenties :drool:), and they have clean bathrooms that are still open to the public!

    :woot:

    I started talking with another guy who’d just picked up a DoorDash order, and he told me He’d had a negative experience at the very same Taco Bell I’d just been kicked out of; He’d been picking up an order at the drive-thru, and a stressed employee had slammed the sliding window on the bag of food he was supposed to be delivering!

    I also told the waitress who handed me the order about the Taco Bell incident, and she thought it was funny!

    So the night with DoorDash went much better than the day shift...

    I took an order from a restaurant in Doylestown to a really nice townhouse in Warwick Township; It was a fairly large townhouse with a late model Mercedes SUV in the driveway. Customer requested that I not ring the doorbell, so I didn’t. She left a decent tip and I drove back to Warrington in the hope of getting more orders.

    I get an order from the Coldstone Creamery right off of County Line Road in Warrington, and when I pulled up I realized I had delivered to the customer once that day. I looked closer at the address and realized it was the townhouse in Warwick I’d just left. I texted the customer and said “guess who your dasher is?” She responded with a laughter emoji and said that she was really hungry due to being pregnant. She apologized, and I told her she didn’t need to because it was all just profits to me; She tipped quite handsomely on both orders...

    I’ve delivered to the same person/address twice in the same week before, but only one other time do I remember delivering to the same house twice in one day (though that time it was two different people)! This time, I delivered to the same woman at the same house twice in less than an hour!

    My last job of the night was at a Dunkin Donuts in Warminster; I was feeling a bit hungry, so I took out three bucks and asked the lone employee if I could have two glazed donuts...

    :drool::drool::drool:

    He said sure and came back with a bag containing the donuts, then insisted it was on the house when I attempted to pay him; I thanked him immensely and drove off. As I pulled into the customer’s driveway, I reached into the bag and realized I’d been given a third donut for free!

    99% of merchants are nice; They let you use their bathrooms, and in some cases give you free snacks. It confounds me why the guy at Taco Bell was such a dickhead!
