Maybe I'm wrong. I think you're misunderstanding the person you're replying to, and I didn't not get from them did they find it inconvenient to pay a stranger more money because it's a stranger, just saying that they find it to be inconvenient to spend an extra $20 on top of the meal anytime they want delivery and it would probably be better off to go pick it up themselves or make food at home which is what I do. Haven't ordered delivery in months because it's such a waste of money.

That person also never said anything about how "that's somebody's job and they signed up for it" and that was you that brought that into this mix. I don't know why you're getting so offended or pissed off about that comment. They're just saying that paying an extra $20 for delivery is inconvenient and costly.

If you are a driver and you make money from doordash or Uber, you might want to consider getting into a different line of work because those companies are just scamming the hell out of you and there's no need to be so defensive of them.

Hmm, maybe I have to change some wording. That is not at all the tone I was going for, I'm not angry or anything like that. And certainly not trying to direct anything at one specific person, or defend any terrible companies doing the things I specifically am saying shouldn't feel comfortable. I'll see what I can do to the post to clear things up some.

But I do agree that if you wouldn't make a friend do something, you shouldn't feel ok making a stranger do it, do it yourself or don't do it.

The post is not some line for line rebuttal, it's more of a loose essay based off a hypothetical posit.
