Guys! I have a request with regards to rating your food delivery drivers …

A lot of companies like DoorDash have a five star rating system. In our minds, that might mean that five stars is perfect, four stars is very good (maybe they were a wee bit late, but no harm, no foul), three stars is good (maybe you didn’t get napkins or whatnot), and then two and one star is just the worst. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! Food delivery drivers are only deemed good if they get anything between a 4.5 and a 5. That’s it! If they rate below a 4, they might be deactivated from the service and then there goes their livelihood! Food delivery drivers do not have easy jobs, and they are blamed for other people’s mistakes! That means, if they hit traffic, still their mistake. If the restaurant is running behind on orders, still their mistake. If the food service app goes buggy, still their mistake. This is not the time to be nit-picky. Unless your food delivery driver throws your food at your feet, calls you a foul name, and then pukes on you, please give them a five. And make sure you rate them! It’s just like voting. If your delivery was perfect and you don’t rate them, and then someone else who’s having an off day gives them a three for no reason, then they get a three. Just, appreciate your delivery drivers, guys! If they’re bringing you a Big Mac, extra pickles, no onion, with half caff ketchup on a de-seeded bun at two a.m. cuz you’re too stoned and too lazy to get out of bed, just give them five stars!!

I tend to think of it like the US grading system. Anything below 60% is failing except in this case it’s anything below 90%
