Is anyone else just trying to make enough money to afford DoorDash again?

Picture this: you're having a late-night craving for fast food. You probably got a targeted ad from Dominos that caught you in a vulnerable moment, so you couldn't help yourself. Against your better judgment, you order some pizza, cheesy bread, and even some of those chocolate lava cakes for you and your partner on a delivery service app, only to discover that the service fees before tipping make your entire order $20 more.
