If this is wrong I don't wanna be right

Wait, so do you yell at garden plants when they aren't growing fast enough?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What? No! I sweet talk them, baby them, like a normal person.

Believe me, I know the feeling all too well…

No I take the weakest one for a tour around the apartment to say goodbye to his friends, then I come back with an empty pot.

I’ve never really wanted some random person to bring me fast food for 40% more plus a tip.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd be ok with a random person bringing me a regular restaurant's food for about 10% more plus tip

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I suppose. I don’t really approve of the way drivers are “hired”, vetted or paid by these companies, though.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I knew someone that delivered for Doordash. They proudly shared that they would tamper with and eat the delivery food, song with other scumbag crap they would do. This person was an all-around POS. Since then, I never order Doordash anymore.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yep, a lot of stories like that out there…

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I do agree with that, they don't even have to put in their real name for deliveries!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Neither do we, but money is money.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don’t fault anyone for driving for them. If the company was actually responsible and hired employees like a normal company and paid them that would resolve most of the issues. As it is the bad drivers and the pressure to deliver while not being paid that much causes problems for everyone.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well I can say it varies from company to company. Doordash is the worst. I consider it the McDonalds of delivery services as far as the way they treat employees. I left there making less than $10 an hour.

Grubhub has treated me the best so far. They pay mostly fairly even without tips. Had to wait 6 months to get accepted by them though.

My biggest gripe is being 1099.

I will say that when I was working for Doordash they sent out a very fucked up, threatening survey. It was around the time the government started looking at them more so they were asking questions like 'If the laws change, would you be willing to work a schedule and have a boss?". The whole survey was a bunch of loaded questions and bullshit in that nature.

I do love the work. Honestly. I just wish it wasn't so hard on my car. :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They used that survey for their bullshit "drivers LIKE being 1099" ads

I'm lazy and going out makes me anxious

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I fucking love spending a 100% upcharge on terrible food delivered by some nameless poor person who can't afford the hospital bill for getting hit by an SUV later this evening.

I will NEVER figure out how my kitchen stove works.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You thought my full size oven, 6 burner stove, and kitchen island were for... preparing and cooking food? Am I some kind of servant?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm too busy WORKING (from home) every day from 9(ish) to 4(ish) to cook healthy meals for myself. What?! You expect me to prepare my signature braised salmon and slow roasted vegetables every day? That's the only meal I've learned to cook and it takes over an hour!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

125 unread messages gives me anxiety

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Why are they texting my dog

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah, and now this account posts a door dash advertisement.

An effective way to stay poor is to spend your money on expensive, greasy, salty food that will send you to an early grave.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Picard Maneuver - posts hundreds of memes for no other reason than to provide content for fledgling communities and helping Lemmy get off the ground and not appear stale, some of said content clearly having to include the name of a brand as part of the content

Awwwyissss, who has done absolutely fuck all in the way of providing content to help Lemmy retain users - oH MeR GeRD Is tHiS gUy aDveRtIsInG !?!

Hey, thanks for sticking up for me back here, friend. I had thought this person was joking and moved on, so I didn't see this thread the other day.

I only scrolled back tonight because the same person showed up under a different post accusing me of being paid by oreos or something now, and I remembered this one. Weird.
