      Same. I’ve almost completely stopped using these delivery services because of the extreme costs and middling performance.

      When people constantly complain about how underpaid they are doing this job, I realized that I don’t want to pay what people actually want to get paid for this service, so I’ll just stop. Like paying 15 fees and tip is already too much for only 1-2 peoples worth of food. I’d consider it less painful for 6 people’s dinner.

        Turns out there’s a reason that getting anything and everything delivered on demand hasn’t ever worked. It’s not a function that is worth the cost to very many people.
