    A practical RSG Guide from Donna, for drivers building a stronger week.

    Uber Eats trained diners to stare at map. When map freezes they call support. Don Eats shows truth.

    4 states: Restaurant accepted — food charge now runs (not before, Gate rule), Preparing — kitchen confirmed, Driver assigned — name + photo, Delivered — ask Route Worthy review.

    Messaging on page: Zero-commission delivery headline everywhere, breakdown shows $0 commission line item.

    User-friendly note: diner should always see where order is.

    Keep this close
