DoorDash Driver's Sarcastic Solutions to "Busy" App Issues Go Viral A DoorDash driver, known as DoorDash Dave, has gained attention online for a humorous video criticizing DoorDash's system for indicating busy periods. In the video, Dave sarcastically proposes changes to the app's interface and compensation structure to more accurately reflect the actual demand and earnings for drivers. His suggestions include turning the "busy" zone on the map a deep red, and adding bonus amounts to low-paying orders to make them appear more lucrative. "Let's make the zone color extremely red, the darker the better," Dave suggests in his video. He also proposes adding bonus amounts to low-paying orders, saying, "Let's do one plus two plus three, really show that we need them out there." The video has garnered significant views and comments, highlighting the frustration felt by some gig economy workers. While Dave's suggestions are tongue-in-cheek, they point to a larger issue of transparency and fair compensation in the gig economy. His video serves as a humorous yet effective critique of DoorDash's practices, sparking discussion and raising awareness about the challenges faced by delivery drivers.
