And yet services like doordash are receiving record revenues?
- soupfordummies 6y agoScroll up a bit: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25459115 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25459115 I used to work with a woman who had multiple jobs to make ends meet. She would still order lunch via Doordash from the restaurant a mile up the street. Every day.
- jelliclesfarm 6y agoMy lunch was always covered by my employer way back when and was written off as a business expense. You’d be surprised how many things can be written off as a deductible business expense. And these days..for certain contracted jobs at the farm, I always order lunch for the workers. I consider it part of their pay even though it’s not included in the hourly rate. Maybe it’s her job’s perk? When it comes to food, I find it difficult to fault people ..even those with questionable budgetary discipline. It is one of the most basic wants in life. Food and sex...I won’t judge. When I was renting a room in London, I’d eat basic food for days just so I can try out Michelin star restaurants once or twice a month. And it was worth it. When I eat good food, I am out of the rat race. I become the most important person to me. If this woman is working multiple jobs to make ends meet, getting food delivered for her is probably making her feel good.
