Two semi disabled folks here, the services are a godsend but I always tip. People don't tip here, our last rider said we were the first tip in 3 days. :(

Tipping is communism, comrade.

It would be if the food service weren't double-dipping. It's like two layers of capitalism here.

Would be really cool if some craigslist style co-op popped up where people could just fulfill taskrabbit style stuff on their own, but there are lots of legal and safety concerns with that.

How often do you use delivery?

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Once or twice per week, give or take, mostly for small supplemental grocery orders. I have a shop that's close but sometimes I just can't.

I feel like grocery orders are a totally different animal. They can be delivered in bulk with a truck, going from house to house. It's totally possible to pay a good wage there. But the individualized a single driver can only deliver a single order at a specific time of day seems made for exploitation (Edit: There's a sentence in there somewhere, sorry). You're not going to earn a fair wage here because then it would have to cost as much as idk a visit to a barber.

Anyways, no hate towards you, it's probably hard enough, I understand.

Yeah! We use Morrison's delivery too which is different from Deliveroo (EU Doordash). I try to prioritise that. :)

Every three days if I had to guess
