#the delivery app orders

[life-of-eris]

I just did some quick math and the motherfuckers I work for pay me literally exactly enough so that I don't qualify for medicaid. Bastards.

i ordered doordash to the motel and the dasher called me and i was like "oh yeah you can just bring it to the door, its room number blah blah" and she said "i can't bring it to the door, because of the kidnappings" and i was like "ooohkay, my fiance will meet you downstairs" which like weird like i understand not coming up to a hotel room but this is like. a motel. the door is right there. but alright.

so then the dasher shows up. my fiance is in the parking lot. she pulls up, and asks my fiance "did you call for an uber?" and they were like... "no. i'm here for the pizza?" and so she calls me to verify and i'm like "yeah, thats my fiance-" and she promptly hung up, handed off the pizza, and drove off with my drink.

so i'm like. fuck. also my pizza is ice cold and there's no microwave at this motel, so i eat my cold pizza and call doordash to get a refund for the drink and maybe even a partial for the cold pizza. i call them, am placed on hold, and the lady comes back like "ok your refund will be on the card you used" so i say "ok thank you! is there a dollar amount i should be looking for-?" and she hangs up.

what the fuck i just wanted a pizza and a drink

HI ok I gotta ask - your post has made me insanely curious - you mention having cash at hand while waiting for your new card (resourceful) but none of the sources of cash was a bank or ATM.

Where I'm from cash is still used a lot (as we minimum wage workers get paid in cash) and as a result there are multiple ATM's within walking distance at all times and banks no more than 15-20 minutes drive away. Is this... different where you're from? (For context I'm from Africa)

We get paychecks directly to the bank account here, and I usually just pay with my card everywhere I need to, because it's more convenient than having a lot of coins and bills around. While there are ATM machines here (there are several within a walking distance from where I live), you use them with your card, so without having one, I can't get money out of the money withdrawing machine. I don't know how you do it, but without a card I can only get money out of the bank account by (online) bank transfers, and that's pretty hard at grocery store register.

Our bank offices stopped handing out cash several years ago, of which I am still very salty about.

I got some cash from my mom, and I had a handful of coins left over from the last time I had used an ATM a while back, but that's kinda rare for me, since most places accept card.

Yes they asked this in a mall food court with a big flashing sign right behind me.

omg i placed a jimmy johns order for the first time using their app and i got a "do you love our app" type popup and i like to be honest, i liked how the app worked compared to others so i clicked "yes" so it would prompt me to leave a review and instead the popup window just said "we love you too!" sobbing

customer in an affluent suburb with fuckoff-tall don't-touch-me hedges around his whole-ass house left me a $45 tip on a $30 mcdonalds order last night (MAY have intended $4.50, but doordash covers lost tips, so if it Was a mistake i still make the $45). only noticed after dropping the food that he had both a black lives matter and progress pride flag flying outside his fuckoff-tall don't-touch-me hedges. which immediately changed my entire perspective. dude saved me 2 to 3 more hours of driving income-wise and probably annoys the Everloving Piss out of his affluent suburban HOA-loving neighbors by being loudly obnoxiously leftist and having solidarity with poor people. what a chad

I just made an order on my food delivery app, and a minute later I got a notification saying "The restaurant is really busy right now :( Your order won't be able to be delivered until 9:32 pm :("

It's 8:47 pm right now. That's 45 minutes. Oh no. I have to sit on the couch relaxing and doing absolutely nothing for a mere 45 minutes, and then someone will bring a freshly cooked meal right to my door without me having to lift a finger. What horror. What tragedy.

I think we've come to expect too much these days.

after a lifetime of having spending anxiety bc im never gonna have a good paying job and need to Save and Hoard Always and Forever for The Inevitable Emergency my sister's "well tomorrow isn't promised so don't spend above your means but also just buy the things you want if you can because why not" philosophy is Getting to me.

Unfortunately the leap has been a big one, getting really close to landing on the complete opposite side of the scale so now its like um okay well why not. Why shouldn't I keep dropping [obscene amount of dollars] on more stickers for my journal.
