They could just pay their drivers the market rate so people would actually work there instead of coming up with convoluted shit

You don’t seem to understand how much delivery drivers actually make. I delivered Chinese food as a second job for a while. I’d work 5-6 hours a night and walk out with $100+ cash in my pocket at the end of each shift. Delivery driving is the easiest legal way to make quick cash in wagieland.

[Anonymous No.17367664]

Nobody who would work for those wages can afford a car, and the pay is barely enough to maintain a vehicle, much less live on. There aren't enough college students, retirees and part-time workers to fill their positions. They must pay or continue the race to the bottom with pizza hut and the like.

You did not make $100 after accounting for insurance, maintenance and loan payments. And you likely did not have retirement, paid time off or health insurance. So in reality the restaurant was the one winning, not you.

[Anonymous No.17367688]

>>17367676
No, but it was a second job. I had insurance through my day job. I don't have loans to pay either. Everything I made was cash in my pocket.

If Dominos drivers made market rates, then they wouldn't be short of drivers. The labor market has determined the compensation of Domino's drivers compared to their requested job responsibilities is not sufficient hence the shortage of drivers.

Right. That’s what it is. Not Biden’s gibsmedats and the loopholes they created for infinite unemployment that deincentivized real work

You're either trolling or horribly misinformed. COVID payments and expanded unemployment insurance ended many months ago and even then it was barely enough to survive let alone cover the increased prices of basic goods and housing

I wonder what the end goal is. If wages keep being stagnant while the price for everything else goes up, then people won't have any disposable income so how are corporations going to show quarter after quarter of revenue increased when no one can afford their shit?

Delivery existing in the first place already proves people are willing to sacrifice cost for convenience

[Anonymous No.17368296]

Who are all these people in this thread trying to push massive "maintenance costs" for people's cars? I'm not entirely sure if these people even own cars.

[Anonymous No.17368896]

>>17368296
What’s massive? Fluid changes and incidentals is about a thousand bucks a year, give or take. Insurance is probably fifteen hundred for the year if you’re clean.

Unless you're blessed with wealth, owning a car usually means 3-7 years of loan payments for a sizeable majority of the population.

where do the govbux come from? it's either from taxes from upper middle class "real jobs" people, or a global tax in the form of currency inflation.

just apply a -5% monthly interest rate to govbux and the money will be spent instead of saved, thus not contributing to the amount of money in circulation
this shit will have to be done once jobs start getting automated on a noticeable scale to prevent 13% of the population from turning the entire country into a warzone

They don't have enough staff / drivers because of jab requirements, so it's easier to keep the drivers inside to make food, entice people to come pick their own shit up.

My man, insurance will sometimes deny you if you do delivery or at the very least pump your rates up to unaffordable levels. The wear on the car is unavoidable and almost always makes the actual pay come out to less than minimum wage. Uber is even worse.
