Eighth Nightly Address: December 29, 2024

  • Summary

  • Today I was out delivering orders for DoorDash and I got a ping for what has to easily be the most absurd order I’ve gotten yet. One single 20oz Sprite bottle from 7-Eleven, delivered 0.2 miles across the street. Now, I got paid $4 as the dasher delivering the order. 7-Eleven got paid at least $2 for that bottle. DoorDash has a profit margin of around 30%, plus small order fees, so they made at least $2-$3 as well. That means this person paid, at least, $8-$9 for ONE BOTTLE OF SPRITE. It could have been $3, still outrageously expensive, thanks to years of punishing inflation, but ⅓ of the cost on DoorDash, simply because they couldn’t be bothered to walk or even drive themselves ONE QUARTER OF A MILE. This isn’t just laziness, this is crippling. How do y’all think the billionaires keep making all this money?! Because we give it all to them for dumb shit like this. The DoorDash shareholders made 100% of the retail cost of the product in PURE PROFIT for doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, more than doubling the price of the item. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
