(yeah i know leftbook is generally bad and no i didn't expect anything better but still)

Yes, employers should be paying delivery drivers way more instead of other working-class people making up the difference. Yes, the US system of tipping and the fact that service workers rely so heavily on tips is fucked up. No, that doesn't give you an excuse to not tip the person who's bringing you your treats.

Multiple people called this meme "ableist" and "classist" :agony-shivering: and even more are saying "delivery driving's way easier than making the food and sometimes they deliver it to the wrong place!!! so they don't deserve to be paid more!"!!

If your arguments sound exactly the same as a chud's, you are not a leftist, you are a propaganda mouthpiece for billionaires that would love to see you drop dead. Shut the actual fuck up you PMC radlib swine. /rant

    I'm sure that's not the case everywhere, but yeah. It's bad in a lot of places. It's even replacing accessibility services for the disabled and elderly. If you need groceries delivered, your only option is doordash. If you're too old to drive, you either have to keep driving or just use Uber. There already is no public transit, and now private accessibility and even volunteer transit are being replaced with Uber.
