Thank you! I learned some stuff today.

The “dick argument” is the one that says a server deserves less money for serving a plate with a cheap item than they do for serving a plate with an expensive item; you’re saying their pay should depend on what the customer decides to eat - which is fucking stupid.

That’s a stupid argument and you know it.

Do we call volunteer fire fighters “slave labor” as well?

Lol this hot (HA) take got people REAL mad.

You have to put forth a rational position, not another unhinged rant, before you receive a rational argument. Try it sometime!

As a theoretical setup, I had to do some drawings for my workplace to try and fit as many patrons into seating as possible (so many 3' circles that couldn’t overlap...so many). We went from having 3500 seats to safely fitting about 500. Then we realized that we’d need to arrange for them to arrive in a specific order…

To be blunt: this site is becoming impossible to use. Huge ads, auto play video that stays locked on top, making text hard to read... I suppose the writers don’t like it either, because surely you didn’t sign up to be writers for a promo rag, so please, please try to do something about it. Screenshot from Chrome on…

My wife and I went to a favorite neighborhood bar when they opened up for outdoor dining. The servers were very deliberate in how they presented drinks, served food, bussed tables. It did inspire confidence in their resolve to keep things safe.

I grill salmon all the time, right on the grates, and I never lose salmon. It always comes off in tact, you just can’t flip or move it too soon. 

Sounds like your plan just gets the delivery guy to subsidize the consumer and restaurant by working on the cheap. Its only a “win-win” because your teenage delivery crew has lower standards. This could never be applied in large scale.

“By explicitly informing customers that these fees exist because of new legislation, Uber is deliberately trying to make people unhappy with the executive order, potentially influencing the way its customers vote.”

“Uber Eats promotes Black-owned businesses, but who benefits?”

This guy was absolutely wrong and deserved to be fired.

Well said.

Delivery companies are doing shitty things, but most of the restaurant’s they’re serving don’t have their own delivery infrastructure.

If I’m ordering a Pizza, I’ll go to Domino’s website and do it directly from them. But that Taiwanese place with the great popcorn chicken and bubble tea? They only offer delivery apps…

Doesn’t even have to be a person reading it. I work in digital marketing so it seems pretty easy, but cataloging all the tweets of a potential hire and then doing a basic search of problematic keywords would be easy, and well within the reach of most network hiring companies.

Here are some basic journalistic tools.

Life-long registered Democrat, African-American native New Yorker, Harlem resident: this kind of article is just further proof of good intentions paving everyone else’s road to hell.
