As we all know, the true minimum wage is $0, as if a job isn’t viable and can’t make a profit it simply no longer exists. Maybe we’ll settle on deciding food delivery shouldn’t exist. I was between jobs and DoorDash was a joy to work, I’d just catch up on my reading with a nice Carl Jung audiobook while driving around. Literally the easiest job I’ve worked in my life. DoorDash is certainly expensive, although I was happy to pay $40 for some chips and ice cream the other day because I had a long day at work and wanted to be an absolute couch potato. The document details the gross profits of DoorDash, but isn’t setting up menus, coordinating with restaurants, all of this an intensely difficult, non automatable problem? There’s zero insight gained by reading this about how DoorDash spends its money. I’d assume engineers and people tweaking menus are expensive? This document doesn’t actually answer the question of “why DoorDash fees are so high” at all, as I suspect the person writing the document doesn’t know why. Maybe the answer is just “oh they’re super greedy” but I’d hazard it’s more complex than that.
