I don't understand why anyone would have this sort of thing delivered.
More money than sense.
Shit like this is way more common than you realize. Here where I am near Boston there are countless people who come into all manner of fast food places to just pick up food to deliver to people. Oftentimes there are more delivery drivers picking things up than in person orders. It's wild. They usually double park with their hazards on or slide into a handicap spot to boot, and they'll absolutely bypass the line and ask the workers even though there's a long queue ahead of them.
Meanwhile everyone says they can't afford to save up for housing and that they don't make enough money to do anything.... and then they'll go grab their delivery with a 30% upcharge and a tip on top from outside where a driver dropped it off.
The pandemic escalated this trend from an uncommon oddity with a decent price (because pre-pandemic it was largely VC subsidized) but around 2021 the fees were cranked up to 11 and payments to drivers went through the floor.
I definitely see clusters of tablets at some restaurants so they can manage it all.
It's definitely quite common. And I hate it. I have a hard time not judging folks' use of these things, at least in the USA where the people doing the actual work don't get their fair share of the money, let alone health insurance or paid time off or sick leave.
I did this twice:
- I was very drunk and had Dairy Queen delivered. I was immediately ashamed when I saw the bill and hid all the evidence from my wife in shame. Would not recommend. It was over twice the cost.
- I was in a rush for a trip, the car had issues so I needed to get a rental the morning of, and I didn't have time for breakfast or to stop at a fast food restaurant. So I made the horrible choice of getting junk food delivered while I got ready. Overall not a horrible choice, but I wouldn't recommend it.
The economics of delivering fast food are awful.
Don't put food directly in front of the door!
I got a door dash drop off pic where my dog is running in the background. It's one of my fave pics of her lmao
RIP those drinks
one of the situations in which it should be "for lil bro and me"
It's a cat so both
Man, I sure do love to DoorDash™ some Dunkin'™!
Part of me hopes the original post was intentional marketing, because I'm still not ready to accept that people speak in brands now.
Genericizing trademarks takes value away from brands. It's good.
Please place the used facial tissue in the steel waste receptacle....nobody has ever talked like this. You say Kleenex in Dumpster. You Hoover up a spill. You Bing your search. You shamwow literally anything.
But that's not even what's happening, they literally had actual Dunkin delivered by actual door dash.
"Play with me! PLEASE!"
Khajit has many wares for sale.
Out of French Crullers again!!!
The image looks like some shitpost, I wonder if I can turn it into a meme template.
