<p>While the numbers don&rsquo;t lie &mdash; and DoorDash is the biggest food delivery corporation in the world &mdash; the fact remains that in the New York metropolitan area, Uber Eats is a better deal for deliveristas. I know this anecdotally from talking to my colleagues. Nobody has ever said DoorDash is better than Uber Eats. And conversely, I&rsquo;ve heard vice versa on many occasions.</p> <p>Demand for my services this week has been almost non-existent. Exactly why and how that happens is yet another algorithmic mystery. I had my app on today from 8 AM to 3:30 PM and received exactly one job offer. That can&rsquo;t be a coincidence. Normally, I&rsquo;d think that my sounding off to a customer or restaurant employee would be the cause. But nothing like that has happened recently. Yes, I&rsquo;ve rejected a lot of crappy offers, but theoretically, that&rsquo;s not supposed to matter. We are independent contractors whose accounts won&rsquo;t be deactivated owing to rejecting too many dashes.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/doordashing-for-dollars/new-horizons-85db20e09170"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
