<p>DOYLESTOWN, Pa. — A top aide to a district attorney in suburban Philadelphia has been demoted because he was caught moonlighting for DoorDash during work hours.</p>
<p>Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub announced the punishment Thursday against prosecutor Gregg Shore, who was demoted from the office’s first assistant district attorney to being a deputy district attorney.</p>
<p>Weintraub said Shore had been working for DoorDash, delivering food during work hours, from October to February. The Bucks County Courier Times <a href="https://www.buckscountycouriertimes.com/story/news/2021/03/18/assistant-da-gregg-shore-demoted-over-doordash-job/4753707001/">said </a> Shore’s salary as first assistant was $125,000. </p>
<p>“I primarily worked the job at nights and weekends, however, I made the incredibly poor decision to deliver during the workday at times,” Shore told the paper Thursday.</p>
<p>Shore told the Courier Times he was motivated by personal circumstances during the COVID-19 pandemic to work the delivery job. </p>
<p>Weintraub said Shore repaid the county with unused vacation time for the money he made delivering food while on duty.</p>
<p>Weintraub cited the importance of redemption and second chances as reasons to keep Shore on the office payroll.</p>
<p>Shore has also worked for the state attorney general’s office, as a Lehigh County prosecutor and was a deputy secretary in the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry during the administration of Gov. Tom Corbett.</p>
