let's hurry up and go before anything else happens Jesus what's up guys
welcome back to The Jeremy Kersten Show where every episode we show you
something on business entrepreneurship investing and other financial things
today I'm excited it's gonna be my first time to doordash I've heard in the past
and I guess I should make another video on that but today we're just gonna
record my first variants using doordash as a driver see where it goes
they sent me this little insulated bag with a little plastic hard bottom thing
on it and a zipper on top to keep the people's food warm and then I guess
maybe you get a t-shirt or something later if you do a couple of trips I
don't know what we're gonna figure it out yeah so I'm gonna take you along for
the ride record this journey share with you let me know what you think in the
comments down below if you haven't already subscribe hit that thumbs up as
well and yeah let's go alright so I just turned the app on first it told me to go
to some or near a Chinese restaurant by my house I guess I guess since I started
traveling towards it it yeah I must have updated and they told me to go to a
Mexican restaurant that's at the front so I'm on my way there now and I also
had a couple of instructions about what you should do is saying some things like
must wear shoes no sandals no tank tops they're asking that you wear the doordash
shirt but I don't have one yet so sorry also says must have a hot bag which I do
like I said doordash- gave me and so should be fine
so I'm and I'm just right down the street I'm probably only I don't know
from that Mexican restaurant I'm Mauro maybe - so I'll be there just a second
all right rolling up to the Mexican restaurant now looking for this side
door they were talking about mm-hmm - go must be that to go all right I'm gonna
park right here run up in this place get the food right quick and the way I'm
paying is the card they give you a card it's like a it's kind of like a red
debit card and kind of like a company account think of it like that like a
company account card you pay for the food with this card so nothing's out of
your pocket so let's go I wish I could have recorded that experience what
happened inside it was a little crazy as soon as I walk in there's a guy wearing
a doordash shirt and like okay there's another one cool and he's got a nice
Stewart a shirt it was like a gray collared one with a small logo right not
the big red t-shirt not that there's nothing wrong with that and then another
doordash sure walks in and this guy no no I'm sorry he was already in there so the
so there's actually two of them in there right and then one of them had the red
shirt just over his thing and the woman had to kind of asked him like where the
shirt is and he was all you know pointing at it and then he can't cause a
big scene I mean not a big scene but he caused the scene managers coming over
and all this cuz he's all kind of just going off on about her and telling me
about it like I understand and I'm like yeah man and I I told him it was my
first time I don't know it was kind of weird and then another doordash sure girl
walks in towards the end of all that but that was nuts yeah but so I got the food
I'll show it to you they're in the bag and so let's hurry up and go before
anything else happens Jesus let's go oh and let me say before I pull out of here
real quick the woman saw the restaurant she was serious about the t-shirt thing
I told you that at the beginning yeah she said she was like where's your shirt
I was like I don't have one yet she's like well this restaurant to accept an
order and come and do service here you've got to have the t-shirt and the
bag and everything so she was like I'm gonna let you go this time the next time
you're gonna have the shirt so they take that very serious that's that's
something I found out so let's keep going all right so it's got me going
over to my guest house it says eight minutes wit Google told me eight minutes
away so just traveling down the 290 feet here right now and I'm checking with you
guys when I rolled to the house all right guys it's about 624 p.m. so
rolling up to the house right now I'm gonna find out exactly which one it is
right here and then check in with her after I drop off the food okay all right
so that was pretty cool dropped it off I mean just by the time I
was walking up to the door the dogs barking little little small dog and nice
woman answers the door and you know said hi how are you doing everything she's
like you know kind of whatever did that and then she's like I'll be a lot better
here in just a minute that was pretty cool when you're done you slide the
little thing over so as you're done with your trip it shows you your pay I guess
I can tell you what that paid me it was like a little over $8 but it's already
directing me to the next location to go pick up it says right now go near
Buffalo Wild Wings and then once you get there it'll tell you it'll ask you if
you want to accept the job because I guess they're doing that because you
know before you accept the job in your far away they want you to actually be
there so I'll get there and then it'll tell me where to go and yeah so I'll
check with you later I guess when I get to the next
restaurant okay so I get to the restaurant and I go in and it's a pizza
place so I come in here and someone ordered some hot wings and a pizza and
I'm like yeah I'm here to pick up for you know whatever the guys name the
customers name and they're like yeah okay I'll be 15-20 minutes I was like
dang nonetheless hanging out here and I'm gonna be
waiting for a little bit so until that time is ready to go get this pizza and
hot wings and take it to them another thing is that the app will keep kind of
like it'll hit you up it'll it'll it'll send you a notification somewhere
we go around the restaurant be like hey it looks like you're on the right then
you know around the restaurant what's your status and then you tell the you
know you give it feedback I guess and because that's what I did and whatever
but you let it know if you're waiting in line if you are waiting on the food or
if you're almost there if you've already left or something that you just there's
a couple different options so I've noticed now both of this restaurant in
the last one that it's doing that so while I'm waiting here for the food I
might as well mention some other things that I've kind of learned you know along
the way as well so both this order and the last order that I did it says in the
app no need to pay so you know how I mentioned the red debit card they give
you earlier for whatever reason I'm not needing to use it to pay for the food I
guess it's already been taken care of online that's what I'm assuming makes
sense so I'm just picking up that's just picking up the food and
going and then just take it to the house or wherever you take it to customer
could be at work or something but what else have I figured out already
the shirts is pretty important this pizza place they didn't they didn't ask
me about this shirt they didn't care all right so this place was taking awhile I
went in there to see what's up and it was like 10 more minutes so there were
10 minutes late on the order may be about 1112 minutes late so I just kind
of sat there and try it I mean they had the Astros game on so that was cool but
I mean no that's I don't know frustrating that I had to wait 10
minutes you know what I mean
yeah so for the record it would be nice if I had a more fuel-efficient car I'm
driving a 2016 f150 v8 so not exactly the most fuel-efficient vehicles but
whatever as far as the vehicle requirements there are none doordash lets
you drive whatever vehicle that you own on my uber which does have requirements
also so like whenever you decide to do a shift I guess if you will for doordash
it'll ask you when you would like to end your shift so I chose 8:30 if I'm not
mistaken it's about 719 I started around 6 o'clock we're gonna go till 8:30 and
just kind of see you know what two and a half hours does for you so yeah I'll
check in with you here in a second when I get to the third restaurant also
another reason why I was kind of interested in doing doordash is because I
learned that it keeps you within a region you just kind of pick a little
area that they have mapped out so say like right by your house or whatever if
you live in a you know well populated area and you can just drive right around
that area whereas post with uber you don't know where you're going when you
go to pick up your customer so or your passenger you can go pick them up right
by your house but then they're taking you on the clear opposite side of the
city and you won't know until they get into your car and you accept the ride
this is different this keeps you within a region left by your house so I just
pulled up his third restaurant I'm gonna go up in here and get these wings and
then check back with y'all here in a little bit okay so not wings it is -
burgers and some fried pickles and this was super fast as soon as I walked in
the order was ready so I'm excited about that let's head on over to the house and
drop it off so when I was in that first restaurant and I told you there was that
you know crazy guy a little bit he was the doordash sure now it kind of makes
sense yes you know he was saying he was like
you know you'll learn the restaurants that like take like 3040 minutes but
every time you go he's like and you'll learn just to avoid those ones and see
what other tips did he give me he says he said don't start before 6 o'clock he
said you're wasting new time well guys that last one went well as you can see
it's getting dark so party she's gonna stop stop filming for a little wildly
continue the shift and I'll check back in with you guys when it's all done
alright guys so I just picked up some food from Chipotle for a customer and I
did have to use the red card the red debit card there so just kind of why I
guess heads up you will have to use it all right guys well I just finished up
2.7 hours of work made a little bit over $41 so it came much about around $15 an
hour not too bad I suppose you know if you're looking for a side hustle
something to do depending on the tips I guess you can make even more so what are
my thoughts on it I like it it's probably better than uber cuz you know
you just by yourself you don't have passengers in your car you can jam
whatever music you want everyone's happy to see you because you're bringing the
food it was pretty fun it was pretty good overall missing some interesting
characters you know like I said the crazy guy at the first restaurant yeah I
enjoyed it I'll probably be doing it again let me know what questions you
