we have no options.

There is no alternative to whatever this Dash is?

    There is, don't order food to be delivered to your house. Going from every pizza shop, and local fast food joint, having people who would drive the food to anywhere within a few miles, with just the idea you would likely tip them if you got your food on time, to having to pay anywhere from 1/4-2x the cost of your order to have it delivered, by a third party, that is a huge faceless corporation, with poor service, is really disheartening.

    So many times the restaurants stop hiring delivery people and use the apps instead.

    I'd bet that even if they don't accept costumers coming to them, there would be a grocery store within the same distance.

    I haven't ordered food delivery for over two years now.

    What if I have some other job like plumber or fireman?

    My local city council gave Doordash a 5 year exclusivity contract in good delivery in our market, which led slowly to all of the local pizza places and Asian food places getting rid of their delivery drivers, so even if I want a local pizza delivered from a local pizza place, I still have to use Doordash.

    This would mean that pizza is worth more to you than your principles about the matter.

    And that in-person pickup, by the user or their friend or someone else they paid, is for some reason or another completely out of the question.

    I literally don't ever order delivery so these sort of can't-do-nothing takes around Doordash are completely foreign to me, but that is just me.

    Actually, given that most pizza joints will happily sell you a pizza for take-out, it just means their laziness of not wanting to go get their own pizza means more than their principles on the matter.

    All of you in my replies really seem to not understand how many housebound disabled alone people there are out there

    So there are only services for take-out, but non for groceries?

    The same services usually do both, so why are we judging the people getting a pizza but not the one getting some groceries?

    Is that a serious question? I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

    So if a disabled person gets pizza they're a lazy entitled piece of shit?

    Yes that is exactly what I'm saying. And you're not even twisting my words or anything. Good job, goodbye.

    TIL that america is SO shit, that take-out junk is the only thing disabled people can get to eat...

    Okay, so we've established that anyone wanting to get something to eat that they haven't cooked from scratch at home is a lazy piece of shit.

    Why not ban the restaurant industry altogether then?
