It turns out that hiring a private taxi for your burger is quite expensive.
- The_Colonel 2y agoIt's fundamentally a political problem. For it to work, you just need enough second-class citizens.
- Ekaros 2y agoTo me it always comes down to cost of living... Lower limit of cost of living in west is not low enough to make these services viable. And that is really the political problem.
- wodenokoto 2y agoWhen just eat started in Europe it was a carpooling for burgers. I still feel like something to that effect must be able to make sense.
- michaelt 2y agoIf several people in a similar location want burgers from the same restaurant at the same time? Great. On the other hand, if they're in different parts of town? Can't carpool. If they order 30 minutes apart? Unless your service is slow as hell, can't carpool. If they order from different restaurants? One customer's food is going to be sitting around, maybe getting cold, while the driver stands around waiting to be served at the second restaurant. If that's not acceptable, can't carpool. If the customer density is high enough these things work out OK - but a lot of these services operate in areas where the customer density doesn't look high enough.
