      Honestly, I’d consider it.

      If I was in the middle of a job and was about to run out of something, I’m looking at downing tools for a minimum hour round trip to the nearest (decent) hardware store.

      There’s a good chance someone starting closer to the store can get that down to 35-40 minutes, and I can carry on working in the meantime.

      Now “normal”, perhaps not, but unreasonable also perhaps not?

        In other words, if you’re a contractor and the doordasher’s fee is lower than your hourly rate.

          Not necessarily, sometimes you just want to get something finished today, which won’t happen if you’re sitting in your car. I probably wouldn’t do it though.
