Thinking of trying this out. I am seeing GrubHub, DoorDash, Postmates, UberEats. Where to go?

And people like you are why we can’t have cool things… people like you are the reason why fucking companies take away the fucking refunds policies. Not like people like you give a fuck though, I’m wasting my breath.

They’re definitely a shitty person but in this case the reason we can’t have nice things is economics. It is simply uneconomical for UberEats to exist and it is burning venture money to subsidize all our deliveries in the hope they can corner the self-driving car delivery market if it ever materializes.

They could prevent it while not impacting the average customer. The reason the don’t is because they have a black hole budget and the only thing that matters is market share.

Maybe they should make the delivery driver foot the bill so he comes to my house and tries to bash me.
