There are few worse things to go through than struggling financially. When you're flat broke, it becomes glaringly apparent how much of the world revolves around having money for even the most basic of amenities. For some people, getting by involves doing things that they might not be so proud of.

This was something that one sympathetic DoorDasher advised on in what has become a viral meme. Suggesting that pretty much anyone could walk up to the counter at a fast food restaurant and take an order meant for someone else, they hinted that it might be a useful tip for those "not in a good spot".

After being put up on Facebook meme page Memes That Can Save The World, the post immediately caused controversy. Some commenters were all too keen to provide tips on how to get away with the act, but there were plenty of others who took issue with it. While it might be a moral conundrum, there's no denying that those who are going hungry will do whatever it takes to make things better.

    Product - So, after door dashing for a week or so. I can say with absolute surety that if you walk with confidence to the pick up spot at any of your fast food spots and just grab the bag and walk out they will not stop you. So if you're absolutely hungry and not in a good spot go for it.

    Font - Sunny Some insight as a former fast food worker: this is true, nobody will stop you and nobody will care. And when the dasher arrives and asks where the food is, we'll get annoyed at the inconvienence of the theft and remake the order. They arent stealing food from some poor crippled elder's fridge, theyre stealing from the faceless fast food corporations in which replacing it probably costs them less then a dollar or two's worth of material. The person who ordered might have to wait an e

    Rectangle - Caroline if you're bold enough, check the times on the receipt. If it was placed over 2 hours ago, chances are nobody is gonna come for it. It might be cold but I mean, it's free. 591 Like Reply 3 d Edited

    Rectangle - Rob S. J. So you're stealing food that some other Average Joe who might've also "not been in a good spot" already paid for. That'll stick it to the man! 685 Like Reply 3d Edited

    Font - Sara Just gonna put this here, I've had my order stolen and it was way too late to make another. So, the restaurant refunded us while we ended up not eating out that night. Or eating at all since it was late and we were waiting for dinner the entire time. The dasher was also waiting at the restaurant, wasting a significant portion of their time, all for a canceled order-which we couldn't tip anyways.

    Font - Sometimes it may seem like nobody but the large corporation is affected but that's just not the case. 9. If you're down on your luck, there are other ways to have your meals compensated without being a jag. Edit: calling it a luxury meal doesn't justify anything. 156 Like Reply 2 d Edited

    Font - Tanya I don't do door dash but I ordered pickup for my family and when I got to the spot I didn't see my food at the pickup place, so I waited in line and told the staff that I was here for an order pickup and long story short, someone had already took my family's food. They remade it for me with no problem, but seriously, I thought that was a sh*tty thing for someone to do. 281 Like Reply 2 d
