Stop fucking using these extortion apps. Drive your lazy ass to the shit food station yourself.
My friend would order food from a different shop that had delivery instead of walking across the fucking street to the place that quite literally was across the street. I could see it from my bedroom window.
Some people will do anything to avoid having to go out and while i'm very similar, I think like 3-4 blocks is my limit as far as walking. 5 mins for driving, any more and I'm just ordering something lol
Tbh I'll order pizza from the good shop 10min away before I order from the shithole 2min away. The difference? "Good food."
I always pick up, but still this could be understandable.
This is assuming you live in a city and not a suburb
Unless you're in europe where suburbs have food places in walking distance
Goddamn I miss that. Restaurants and bodegas within walking distance of your apartment.
Too bad they're all pizzerias.
Why do you just assume everyone can drive? Plenty of people either don't have a license or don't have a car.
It's definitely true that ignorant people ignore the fact that people with disabilities exist.
Where I live every major grocery store provides free assistance to people with disabilites who have trouble to shop.
Extortion companies like Door Dash are not the solution.
You realize a take away is a lot different from shopping for groceries, right? What you have said isn't relevant and isn't a solution. There is no perfect solution for people with disabilities under capitalism because capitalism is incompatible with the needs of disabled people. It's also not just about disabled people. Not everyone can afford, wants, or needs the most dangerous and environmentally destructive form of transportation in common use.
Edit: also not all disabled people can cook or have the energy to cook. Heck, most non-disabled people like to get delivery once in a while.
Well no. Where I live nearly all grocery stores sell meal kits, heat and eat food, and hot meals.
While that's great you're essentially saying disabled people shouldn't have take out because you don't like delivery apps. Not everywhere and in all countries are shops going to provide those services.
That's an irational conclusion to draw from my statements.
Okay then how do you suppose they do it? Not every restaurant can afford to have their own delivery service, though luckily some do.
Where I live we have honest delivery services. To me, this means they don't mark up the menu, their drivers are real full time employees, they charge a reasonable fee, and they do not expect tips.
They are happy to carry things up and inside for those that need it.
I don't own or want a car btw.
I've used these apps -- when I was quarantining because I had Covid, wasn't in a state to drive, and needed food.
I don't use them anymore, but these types of apps can fill a "need".
Why? Who's holding a gun to the head of these drivers and forcing them to work for this gig? The onus isn't on the customers, it's on the drivers.
My guess is either their landlord, their hospital, their bank, their supermarket, or their college. Not an actual gun, just metaphorical. A lot of drivers are just desperate to make ends meet however they can. There’s a lot of shit to be said about the gig economy, but it does provide flexible schedules, and while some people just want to monetize as much of their time as possible, some people actually need to.
