DoorDash makes tipping an afterthought to protest New York City’s wage raise - eviltoast

“For most markets where DoorDash operates, customers are prompted to tip on the checkout screen, with a middle option already selected by default. If they want to, they can adjust the tip later from the status screen while awaiting their food, or even after it’s delivered. That’s changing today; while blaming New York City’s minimum wage increase for delivery workers, DoorDash announced that for “select markets, including New York City,” tipping is now exclusively a post-checkout option”

It seems so ridiculous given tipping fatigue, that DoorDash is making what should be a given sound like a negative.

    Can you read? I mean obviously you can but your selective comprehension is baffling. I already told you my car has been “replaced.” Actually it’s been replaced multiple times over and it’s still going. Your petty assumptions about my situation are frankly wrong, and when I compared deducting the mileage rate vs itemized deductions, the mileage rate was so much better I wondered why anyone would consider itemizing. Drive cheap, efficient cars my friend, you can really game that mileage rate.

    Also do you really think the IRS has local couriers driving tiny used cars in mind when they’re creating their mileage deduction? No, they don’t.

      Well, just hop on a bicycle, and you can lower your per mile expenses to almost nothing!

      I stand by my use of the IRS numbers fot demonstrating this point. The methodology used to calculate those numbers is reasonable and sound. Your own methodology is… not.
