I work as a cook and drivers just leave those orders on the counter. They'll only take them if there's another stop along the way, so it's like 50/50 they just don't even get picked up or are delivered cold as hell and then we have to deal with complaints.

My boss wants to stop allowing service through those apps because it's become such a big issue of drivers being selective with orders and people not tipping.

That's exactly why I don't think these apps are sustainable. The human element makes it incompatible with reality.

[Anonymous No.53176283]

>>53174642

$57.25 but let's break that down.

Your main meal is the sandwich and that's listed at $18.68. You proceeded to order a burger ($13.03) followed by a Cheesecake ($8.84), and a drink ($3.06).

In total, the meal itself minus the costs associted with your laziness is $43.61.

HOWEVER.

Grubhub takes an average fee cut of 20% so you can break that down even further.

You should have paid only $34.88 for this meal; and if you wanted to save costs, you quite easily could have.

This has nothing to do with inflation, but rather, your option to go through a middleman to complete your order.

You were raped by middleman fees and deserve to feel bad.

[Anonymous No.53176682]

Where the fuck is this place? A chicken deluxe with bacon meal with large drink and large waffle fries at Chickfila is $9 and a steakhouse "Thickburger" from Hardees by itself is $7. a slice of cheese cake is at most $4, and Mexican Coke is a marketing gimmick, its been tested to not have cane sugar because Coke sued the Mexican government when a law to ban high fructose corn syrup was trying to be passed. But white people still believe its better, so its everywhere as Mexican coke, which ironically put the nail in the real sugarcane drink because sugarcane isnt consistent enough and there aren't enough sources owned by the company to mass produce the drink, its the glass that makes the drink taste slightly different.

Your just letting everyone bend you over at this point.

You niggas really don't understand central banks' role in this do you
The most that orange man did was bully Jerome Powell into lowering rates some in 2019. This was a drop in the bucket compared to the Fed's recent actions that really fucked us.
The Fed printed nearly an order of magnitude more money to inject into debt markets "due to covid", as compared to government deficit spending in a typical / recent year.
I won't argue that either president has necessarily helped the situation recently, but stating that either one really caused this mess demonstrates that you're missing the biggest piece of the puzzle.

Delivery apps are the problem, they charge this because it doesn't stop you from buying.
It ends when you (I mean everyone, collectively) say it's too expensive and buy it less.

[Anonymous No.53177334]

>>53176096
My family owns a restaurant and they stopped ordering through the apps. You can call it in to the restaurant and then have them pick it up,but no more ordering through it because of the insane number of chargebacks from people that don't tip and then blame the restaurant. I can't even blame them because the apps are charging you $10 in fees and they never tell you that the driver doesn't get any of that.

>Fed and Biden both believing this nonsense and not pushing for interest rate increased immediately after the American Rescue Plan was signed
>Biden vax mandate causes workers in key roles (like truck drivers) to refuse the vax, causing more problems to the supply chain
>Biden greatly cuts down on US oil drilling. We start buying from Russia. War starts. Can't buy from Russia anymore. Gas prices skyrocket

i clearly said and will re-iterate that I do NOT think Biden helped in any way. I don't like him. None of what you say false, is that clear enough?
Those things are terrible for our country, don't get me wrong, but there are FAR fucking worse things going on behind the scenes that you aren't aware of - it's our central bank's policy.
An absolute fucking avalanche of currency was created that dwarfs Biden's fuck-ups. That is the problem, anon.
To summarize, I'm saying that if you think is bad, it gets so so much worse and he ends up looking more like a puppet. I'm not here to be hostile.

Trump would have handled it better.

[Anonymous No.53177479]

>>53177428
Again, that's what you miss. If you think he'd be better that's fine, what I am trying to explain is that our congress and president are only responsible for a small portion of the currency printing. It's still trillions of dollars, but so much more is created without their approval. Look up "quantitative easing" if you haven't heard of it.
The board of governors of the federal reserve has sole authority to handle the currency in this manner. Trump and Biden have approved the same chairman (powell)
This is the graph of liquid dollars over time, for reference.

[Anonymous No.53177559]

>>53177428
Perhaps a better way to phrase my response is that your base assumption is the problem - the president legally CAN'T handle the currency at all. He doesn't have that authority over our central bank.
The Fed was set up in 1913 so that the president only nominates the chairman who gets to act independently and without oversight.
The president is a symptom of the problem lately, not the problem itself.
I hate the direction we're going in under Biden, I'm no democrat in any way, but I still have to admit that the worst of the problems are due to leaving the money printer on and more than doubling the currency supply in just two years.
Biden's retarded policies on vaxx mandates and oil have affected me personally and I hate them, but I am just talking about monetary policy here.

I'll argue that reality is perhaps even worse.
None of the establishment likes Trump (obviously), so I think they would have held rates lower for LONGER to make him look worse and get him out of office. They're all neolibs at the Fed.
But really I'm not here to argue, I'm here to try to inform (You) of our monster of a central bank that gets to push whatever agenda it wants with zero oversight.

[Anonymous No.53177670]

>>53177577
Sadly trump could realize this (I agree that he would) and "call for" interest rate hikes, but I'm sure at the Fed they'd take the opportunity to stick their nose up at him - saying "inflation is transitory".
