Rock and hard place, a better land between
It is not easy to become a top dasher. In fact, it takes more than steady work and dedication. The courier must be on the hustle near constantly. It is also important to accept every offer. Yes. Even the one that goes to Timbuktu.
Achieving the app reward of Top Dasher is anything but simple. Not only must the courier fulfill a certain number of deliveries in a month, but also meet additional metrics. More than a couple. For example the acceptance rating.
The acceptance rating is an important measurement. This metric is the one that balances things. Or, it is a big tattletale. It’s up to the courier which. With this in mind, the metric is a measurement of performance. It is a count of the offers, the courier accepts.
The Land
However, this also means there is a count of offers the courier declines. When this ratio is not in acceptable parameters, the Top Dasher award can be elusive.
Furthermore, the courier must continue to accomplish the parameters. It’s possible to hit the marks and then miss out. While it does sound counter intuitive, to hit a goal and then lose it because of stats, it can happen.
With this in mind, it’s important to consider the quality of the deliveries being completed. There is such a thing as putting a dent in stats. When the courier achieves the requirements for Top Dasher, the stats still matter afterwards. Furthermore if there is still time before the end of the month, the stats will continue to accumulate.
Not only will they accumulate but they will be added to the tally. Furthermore, it’s always possible to catch bad stats. If this happens it can have a negative effect on the courier’s overall ratings. Additionally, it isn’t a pizza.
Pizza is a symbol of something awesome. Not only is it delicious but also it’s not complicated. It has no interest in stats and works best in extreme heat. Like the kind found in ovens. Or the equator.
Between
Pizza can also be found much closer than Timbuktu. (Depending on the pie) However the courier might feel pressure to accept the offer. It is a long delivery, but it saves the stats and the Top Dasher award. The pressure is due to a rush. However, the stats are still being recorded.
Achieving the right measurements, only to lose them again because of additional stats, is rough. However it can happen. Being aware of the stats will help the courier. Attention to detail is good for courier stats, and deliveries.
This is more of a balancing act, at the end of the month. The courier needs the dough. Yet the courier doesn’t need the bad press. Rock and hard place. A better land between, is solely up to the courier. Stay safe out there.
