What about takeout?*
 Previous Message maybe 2-3 times a year. I guess I should feel better about that. :-/ Previous Message Previous Message Which seems absolutely wild to me. Previous Message and immediately regretted it. First, the delivery took like 2x the time they said. Second, it was cold when it arrived (it was Chinese food). Third, I looked at the cost (which the company was paying not me) and it was outrageous. #neveragain Previous Message Previous Message
Which is incredibly nice of them…it really is. So I download the DoorDash app and sign up, enter my gift card pins to load up the value…
And I think something is wrong with my settings OR they’re just pushing promoted restaurants to me. I’m searching in my area then a Wendy’s like 5 miles away will be in the results? Why would I order fast food from 5 miles away that’s guaranteed to be like warm at best when it gets here.
Everything that is close I just keep thinking “why wouldn’t I just pick that up?”
It’s just me boomer-ing the app, I realize this…but I’m amazed there’s people that rely on this daily.
