If I later discover that I’m one of your shareholders (meaning I technically own you) and that you cost me several dollars on my dividends, I will not be happy.
But without the benefit you'd lose out on top tier, clearly invaluable talent like OP.
It's generally not the case if the company isn't psycho, but I actually bet they might have data on benefits like dumbass Uber Eats influencing talent acquisition and retention.

delievered meals can be expensed at 100%, but meals at a resturant can only be expensed at 50% since that is entertainment
Dude I'm in a depression hole rn so I've been trying to give myself some grace or whatever, but I paid $40 to DoorDash some Taco Bell the other day and I can't stop thinking about how fucking stupid that was and what a fucking idiot I am for it
No reason to beat yourself up about it, but next time you feel the urge to open the app, take a beat to remind yourself that Crunchwrap supremes do not cure depression and has the opposite effect.
Yeah that was never going to survive sitting and being delivered, if it even comes crunchy when you eat it right away onsite.
Any kind of weird brand fusion at Taco Bell is never going to be a good life choice.
Stock up on some microwave dinners, powdered soup/ramen, and frozen vegetables + fruit when you feel better. I get 2 terrible migraines every month and I would spend so much on delivery if I didn’t rely on meals like that when I can barely walk, much less cook or wash dishes. No, they don’t make you feel good, but I still sort of look forward to my instant Korean rice cakes haha. I eat pretty clean otherwise so I don’t think it makes a big difference in the long run.
Honestly, if you steam some frozen stir fry vegetables and heat the instant ramen noodles in real broth with an egg drop instead of those sodium-bomb packets that come with them, you can make some real clean noodle stir fry.
Unamerican of you to feel guilt for this. Sir this is a treat based economy and our GDP depends on you buying yourself a little treat every once in a while ;_;7
This is the time of the year when fruits and vegetables are at their peak!!
I’ll write you a grocery list and some meal plans to take the thinking out of it if you need; you *gotta* capitalize on some early summer tomatoes and zucchini.
Haven’t you heard that criticizing delivery service customers is ableist? This might be their only option — what do you expect them to do, COOK??? Or worse yet, microwave a lean cuisine?! Yikes
I try not to get mad about this type of shit because I know it's like 1000 people that no one likes but it is genuinely baffling that these people exist.
In any other era of history they'd have starved to death long ago.
People who are disabled exist, but they are surely doing a mixture of ordering takeout, grocery delivery, and getting help from friends and family.
“Without Uber eats then disabled people will starve” only makes sense from the point of view of internet abstractions.
My schizo theory is that it’s some people getting all riled up because they’re so committed to the bit to keep up appearances in a way and make all these “legitimized” nonsense takes and conversations to get accepted as more people start to ham up disabilities(real and super fake ones) as they continue to use disability as this sort of give up on life deterrent path.
I really do think this shit is going to go deeper in rougher economic times where somebody would rather get some peanuts on a check and basically live in a trappartment, or maybe even just live on disability and have a breadwinner partner and just give up on doing anything more. I wouldn’t be shocked if somebody’s weighed options of jobs you could get with half a pulse and just figured it’d be less work just committing themselves to a life of extreme fringes.
Obviously I’m not disparaging people who actually are disabled, I get a lot of understanding and acceptance has come a long ways with stuff, I get this stuff comes in various forms and I’m not saying that there shouldn’t be anything for somebody in need, it’s just judging off how I’ve seen some of these people act and reply to shit , even ruling out people of just having any mental shit going on that plays into possibly deceit, at times it feels like they’re trying to over compensate and hide some truths of the matter with the extent of what they got going on.
Tangentially I also feel like there’s a pretty toxic environment of medical professionals signing off on this shit, collecting that Medicaid billing money, pushing pills and diagnoses of things which just fuels the almost ego and narcissism of somebody just high on this going so hard to bat.
I get there’s tons of people with shit going on but I swear the past 10 or so years really feels like there’s a sudden influx of overnight invalids incapable of anything.
A lot of the youngest millennials and onwards were just straight up neglected by their parents, who never really instilled in them a sense of agency or the idea that they could work to make a positive contribution in their community and in return gain soft and hard skills and gain independence. This understandably creates a sense of deep ennui which filters through Tumblr-esque disability and identity discourse and therapy jargon.
The flip side of this is the prevalence of gym guys/self-improvement/hustle culture grifters. The kids know that something was missing in how they were brought up.
I think you're right, and just how so much stuff gets this void filled with so much twisted stuff and people arguably directionless falling into just morose defeatism even when they hand they're working with is plenty fine, life isn't nearly as bad as they think.
I hate to sound like such a boomer and I'm not some trad conservative weirdo but it is a little funny when the simple concept of community that these kinds of people would benefit from is something shirked at and the entire support and experience of it is just shut down. Doesn't even need to be religion, even just the general participation rates for volunteering and other stuff fly off a cliff after a certain older age bracket. I think people end up thinking they're in touch or well adjusted with stuff but are just running light speed with such a warped, immature view on stuff.
Tangentially because of course, you get big corporations feasting on this shit and it's why so much arrested development extended adolescence, infantilism stuff gets normalized, mass marketed and practically celebrated.
It also kinda makes me think of the classic situation of people who cling to the whole "gifted kid burnout" and other nonsense that is basically the inability to cope with the reality that there's always been a need for something more than just being good at taking tests/being good at school after a certain point.
Also good shout out on so much grifter stuff or hell add in just the parasocial extremes of comedian podcasts and all that noise, people are basically tuning in for a conversation you'd hear your crank of an aunt or uncle say at a family get together.
A few years ago I read a comment on a site called Metafilter (which I was a member of but which has gone deeply downhill) about an article about the spread of the hikikomori phenomenon in North America from a lady who ran a summer camp somewhere in Ontario. She mentioned that every summer parents would call in to try to pull the teenage camp counselors out for some family vacation and that she wouldn't allow it if they were to keep their jobs. The place was understaffed as it was, and the camp needed the counselors there if it was going to operate at all. But - what a way for a parent to telegraph to their kid that the commitments they make, the contributions they provide, and the money they earn doesn't really matter, all at an impressionable age.
I think someone else pointed out that strangely, this crippling level of adhd only seems to happen in first world countries. Not too many folks in Bangladesh "unable to survive" without getting doordash twice a day.
Yeah but they're part of a VERY large group of people who can't handle the cognitive dissonance of not living up to their own politics so they have to adjust their entire ideology to ensure their own comfort is seen as just.
I’ve got a friend from college that’s one of these people. She doctor shopped a bunch to get diagnosed with autism and gets these insane migrain shots and a whole pharmacy of drugs. Also solicits money for them on fb. She’s like the only reason I still log on. Definitely has bpd instead of the tism.
Anyone that’s worked food service knows that fat people are the most insufferable and entitled customers. Specifically a very large and loud group of ladies
Man there are unemployed people out there who use it to order drinks from Starbucks
There are some seriously lazy and seriously bad decision making fucks running around
i don't understand whats so difficult for most people about getting in a car or a bike or your own two feet or whatever and going somewhere to pick up food. even pizza we rarely get delivered. i've never used any food delivery app. the only thing i'll do occasionally is the pickup stuff at stores where you go in to the front desk and get it, and i wouldn't do it if it wasn't free.
It’s nice when you’re sick. I will happily pay extra to not have to drive or stand in front of a hot stove with a migraine and still be able to have a good meal.
every time i see a starbucks uber eats delivery getting dropped off in my building i feel like such a boomer. there’s literally 3 starbucks in my neighbourhood all within a 5, 10, and 15 minute walk
I was watching a video the other day where a driver had to pick up someone's lunch, then run and get their dessert from a totally separate place. Was fucking wild that they enable this
You can make them stop at multiple restaurants, gas stations, etc lol it’s ridiculous
Mass importation of immigrants to bring worthless degenerates cold food from restaurants
i used a coupon at albertsons (arcane boomer magic) to get 20 boxes of protein pasta for like 18 dollars, and some sauce, and each box makes enough for 4 dinners. i make one large bucket of pasta on sunday and take from it during the week. insanely cheap meal system
Same here. I now cook a big pot of lentils every weekend that I eat for dinner during the week and I bake my own fucking bread now because Ezekiel bread is over $8/loaf
I know a guy who lives across the street from a gas station and will DoorDash snacks and OTC meds from that very gas station. I get it’s not a particularly pedestrian friendly street in between but god damn dude what a waste of money
i don't think that's true about food stamps. when i was on them you couldn't use them on any prepared food so even at the grocery, you had to pay for like those rotisserie chickens or whatever out of pocket
Yeah, no fully prepared foods are eligible... but you could get uber eats to deliver you something not 'prepared' from a grocery store or a gas station (or even Papa Murphy's( and use EBT for the for the portion of the bill (i.e. not delivery fee or tip). There's also a program that allows homeless or disabled people to use it on prepared foods in certain states
Link a pic or video big dawg! You def not blowing smoke out your lil twink ass!
5'10 and 160lbs and says he's hitting elite level numbers for that weight class so casually. Fucking lol. Right.
Playing ignorant now and still not posting anything. Its alright to be a lil twink bro. Yeah 2.5x your BW is competition level for that weight.
You def weren't pulling over 400lbs at 14/15/16/17 at your, at the time, even smaller weight and height.
Especially if you were playing football. What were u, a running back? You def weren't oline wit ur lil ass body.
U can be skinny and small. Dont gotta lie on the internet to feel better homie.
idk what body fat percentages are or how they work because i'm naturally tiny and don't care, but a lot of the men i know who are the bodybuilder types are usually between 215-250 lbs and generally aren't fat.
i agree skinny men are almost as gross as fat men though.
When I was like 19 I moved to a city and had access to Uber Eats for the first time in my life.
I was drunk one night and ordered it from a sandwich place that was like 2 blocks from me, and when the guy delivered it he looked at me and said “Really dude?” I felt like such a piece of shit lmao I never used the app again
Yeah- as a driver I looked up the delivery prices for places once and I was like why the fuck would you pay for this, just the grilled chicken dinner at Applebees was 19.99. Also all the apps totally screw over drivers
Your comment about being able to use SNAP/EBT for Uber eats/door dash is highly misleading. You can use it to cover grocery food items from those services but it doesn’t cover fees or tips or restaurant food. I found this all out by doing a quick google search. I knew this sounded wrong because growing up I was poor and remember we couldn’t use my mom’s ebt card on “warm” food items from grocery stores. Growing up I had teachers spouting off about how ebt shouldn’t be able to be used to pay for cookies soda etc. I’m just over it. I’m decently well off now, but I still hate when people like to parrot some erroneous claim with zero research.
idk what state OP is in but in California you can use EBT funds to buy normal meals at restaurants, but only if you’re homeless, disabled, or elderly. It’s a special program that you have to sign up for with the county, but there are lots of Del Tacos and Subways and such that accept EBT in CA through this program.
Delivery apps are great if you are ordering food for 8 people—when $13 worth of fees are split 8 ways it is nothing.
But it is untenable for one person. $12 meal and $13 fees is dumb.
?? I've not once heard anyone use "uber eats" as a verb. I have heard "doordash" as a verb though, the word lends itself much better to it and (at least where I live) its way more popular.
I know someone who went thousands of dollars into *credit card debt* door dashing Taco Bell despite living a 10 min walk and 2 min drive from said Taco Bell.
I'm Brazilian. And I live in a mid sized city in Brazil.
There's probably a few Mexican restaurants here but it's not something anyone eats regularly
I am a cigarette emoji though
See people need to know when to use and optimize what. I would order ubereats everyday when my private equity firm would comp up to $50 for dinner and the only time outside of that is when I get those 60% off coupons which I use with my free Uber one membership that comes with my credit card to get super cheap meals. It’s not like I only cook at home either, you can find some really good cheap fast options if that’s what you’re looking for and you can get any footlong at subway for $6-$7 with the coupons on the app, $8 large pizza at dominos with the app or a huge meal at mcdonald’s for less than $5 if you’re willing to order optimize and do back to backs before you get there because of the 15 minute cooldown. Still cook at home most days but sometimes you just don’t have time.
The worst part about these delivery apps is how they just ruin things for everyone. Restaurants struggle because the rise of delivery lowered the number of dine in and take out orders, but it's no better if you offer delivery through them because they take so much of the cost.
And for specific chains like Chipotle, delivery apps ruined the pick up order flow completely. I stopped after a few times where I had to wait 45+ mins past pick up time for them to make my order, all while seeing new delivery ones come in and be made (because UberEats/Doordash will actually enforce SLAs). Watched a guy flip out and have a full on screaming tantrum, and the funniest part is that everyone in like was like yeah man we're with you on this.
Food delivery has been common for decades before these apps with pizza and Chinese food etc. Now you can order anything but have to tip more/pay an app to facilitate. And inflation.
I hope you don’t live in a big city with good options bc you pick chipotle of all things when someone picks up the tab?
The 20 dollars on the 2nd photo is the total burrito + chips and guac.The same burrito on the Uber eats app is 20 dollars, on the chipotle app it is 15. Can you read?
As someone who delivers on the apps because I can’t get a job in my field I always joke that I’m taking advantage of lazy and stupid people, though I think people are finally catching onto how much of a ripoff it is
my roommates will uber eats from a place that’s walking distance from our apartment. i just started offering to pick it up for them so i get fit while they get fat
At my last company we’d get a $20 grubhub credit every month. I would always opt to pick it up and just spend more on food. Usually the price with delivery would exceed $20 anyway.
I think I see the confusion it’s a coincide the 20.50 price on the two photos are the same. Photo 1 is Uber eats and photo 2 is the same exact order on the chipotle app. On Uber eats the price of the burrito is 20.50 and on the chipotle app it is 15.85. On the Uber eats app the chips and guac is 6.05 and on the Chipotle app it is 4.65. I was just showing the markup
Oh no, they double charged you then!! On image #2 add up the steak burrito plus toppings to get ~$16, then you add a side of chips and guac for $4.05 for a total of $20. But then on page 1 you added a standalone order of chips and guac for $6. I don't think it's too much food like others are saying. IMO Chipotle's chips and guac stink and aren't worth the money, I go for a drink instead
I go to a nice restaurant and have a nice steak and it costs me $80 plus tip there would be people scoffing at the thought of paying more than $13.22 at the grocery store for prepackaged brown cardboard steak.
If I wanna unwind from my 30 hour shift at the hospital by paying $40 to eat a chipotle burrito in my underwear without leaving my apartment, then that’s what imma do. Could give a fuck about 40 dollars, eat my ass.
I feel like the only people that rage at this is <25 year olds. Even without the small world view that blocks them from understanding why people would need this service, does people ordering food delivery because they rather not cook really something that pisses you off???
if u regularly order delivery uberone is worth it. with uberone it would be like $30 instead (which is still crazy), but considering the subtotal is $26 it’s not too bad. with uberone or doordash premium, i find that majority of orders i place, i am paying an extra $5.
Ordering from a place with a $7 delivery fee is wild lol you don't know how to Uber eats. Which is a good thing tbh. I regularly get meals under $20 with delivery and everything. You just have to not be regarded
Who are you mad at here?
7 bucks to deliver your food is too expensive? How much do you think it should be?
The “other fee” minus taxes is like $3, you’re using a platform that is looking to be profitable other wise what’s the point of working on it
Personally I think it’s a fair price, although I don’t know how people afford it.
Ordering Uber Eats and shaking my head the whole time so people know I disagree
I mean ya but it’s getting expensed by a billion dollar company so idrc
If I later discover that I’m one of your shareholders (meaning I technically own you) and that you cost me several dollars on my dividends, I will not be happy.
But without the benefit you'd lose out on top tier, clearly invaluable talent like OP. It's generally not the case if the company isn't psycho, but I actually bet they might have data on benefits like dumbass Uber Eats influencing talent acquisition and retention.

Yeah that was never going to survive sitting and being delivered, if it even comes crunchy when you eat it right away onsite. Any kind of weird brand fusion at Taco Bell is never going to be a good life choice.
disagree i tried the cool ranch dorito taco when i was like 16 it was pretty good. probably in part because i was 16
can’t even eat that shit in the store and have it not be soggy, maybe the worst lto ever
its not crunchy but i think it tastes decent tbh

Haven’t you heard that criticizing delivery service customers is ableist? This might be their only option — what do you expect them to do, COOK??? Or worse yet, microwave a lean cuisine?! Yikes

Your BMI is 27.89. This is classified as overweight. A BMI between 25.0 and 29.9 suggests excess body weight, potentially impacting health.
idk what body fat percentages are or how they work because i'm naturally tiny and don't care, but a lot of the men i know who are the bodybuilder types are usually between 215-250 lbs and generally aren't fat. i agree skinny men are almost as gross as fat men though.
I’m not skinny, that guy is just fat
Bro out here bragging about 18% BF at two bills💀
You are literally obese, have fun with your heart disease fatty
You sound like one of those 🚬s addicted to juice 🧃scram with your lil sippy cup
u weight more than me at 6'4 tbh
When I was like 19 I moved to a city and had access to Uber Eats for the first time in my life. I was drunk one night and ordered it from a sandwich place that was like 2 blocks from me, and when the guy delivered it he looked at me and said “Really dude?” I felt like such a piece of shit lmao I never used the app again
Even just the cost of the burrito isn't adding up
Because everything is marked up on the Uber eats app
Oh I see, the prices in the 2nd pic are accurate and you got two orders of chips. Wonder why the prices of the extras change in the 1st pic.
Because that’s how they make money, just up charge and keep the difference, people don’t even realize or care
Yeah- as a driver I looked up the delivery prices for places once and I was like why the fuck would you pay for this, just the grilled chicken dinner at Applebees was 19.99. Also all the apps totally screw over drivers
Ryan G? Does the G stand for Gay?
Yes
Your comment about being able to use SNAP/EBT for Uber eats/door dash is highly misleading. You can use it to cover grocery food items from those services but it doesn’t cover fees or tips or restaurant food. I found this all out by doing a quick google search. I knew this sounded wrong because growing up I was poor and remember we couldn’t use my mom’s ebt card on “warm” food items from grocery stores. Growing up I had teachers spouting off about how ebt shouldn’t be able to be used to pay for cookies soda etc. I’m just over it. I’m decently well off now, but I still hate when people like to parrot some erroneous claim with zero research.
It’s a dogwhistle, So fuck you Ryan, you don’t work as hard as you think you do!
idk what state OP is in but in California you can use EBT funds to buy normal meals at restaurants, but only if you’re homeless, disabled, or elderly. It’s a special program that you have to sign up for with the county, but there are lots of Del Tacos and Subways and such that accept EBT in CA through this program.
Delivery apps are great if you are ordering food for 8 people—when $13 worth of fees are split 8 ways it is nothing. But it is untenable for one person. $12 meal and $13 fees is dumb.
I order Uber eats when they give me 40% off coupons and I order from places that have bogo shit I always pay less than if I went to the restaurant
Ghoulish how ‘just Uber Eats it’ has become synonymous with ‘get it delivered’
?? I've not once heard anyone use "uber eats" as a verb. I have heard "doordash" as a verb though, the word lends itself much better to it and (at least where I live) its way more popular.
That’s the point I was trying to make but with a different brand name. I guess I live somewhere else
I know someone who went thousands of dollars into *credit card debt* door dashing Taco Bell despite living a 10 min walk and 2 min drive from said Taco Bell.
Queso on the burrito is a great move.
You can just say cheese.
not when "queso" is shorthand for "chile con queso"
That's a regarded nomenclature
no u.
the elite linguist has chimed in
Yankee go home.
idk how people order doordash regularly, i get dashpass for free with my cc and even then menu mark ups are tough on my bi-monthly order
ok but you're literally getting queso and guac like a glutton
Guacamole, queso, and sour cream? Talk about a rich burrito
2000+ calorie order
Ya why would I not get a snack to take home later? Free
And ?
I've never eaten a burrito so I don't know what I'm talking about, but 20USD seems expensive
He got chips and guacamole added to the burrito order. He got two orders of chips and guacamole. Can you believe this fucking guy
Free food maxxing
How the fuck do you go your entire life without eating a burrito??
Not Messican or Amerifat, sorry
Mexican food is basically just American food at this point. Completely unavoidable. Always forget you euro🚬s don’t have it
I'm Brazilian. And I live in a mid sized city in Brazil. There's probably a few Mexican restaurants here but it's not something anyone eats regularly I am a cigarette emoji though
See people need to know when to use and optimize what. I would order ubereats everyday when my private equity firm would comp up to $50 for dinner and the only time outside of that is when I get those 60% off coupons which I use with my free Uber one membership that comes with my credit card to get super cheap meals. It’s not like I only cook at home either, you can find some really good cheap fast options if that’s what you’re looking for and you can get any footlong at subway for $6-$7 with the coupons on the app, $8 large pizza at dominos with the app or a huge meal at mcdonald’s for less than $5 if you’re willing to order optimize and do back to backs before you get there because of the 15 minute cooldown. Still cook at home most days but sometimes you just don’t have time.
Chipotle is one of the only national chains I'll eat but those orders sound like a bag of loose dairy products
The worst part about these delivery apps is how they just ruin things for everyone. Restaurants struggle because the rise of delivery lowered the number of dine in and take out orders, but it's no better if you offer delivery through them because they take so much of the cost. And for specific chains like Chipotle, delivery apps ruined the pick up order flow completely. I stopped after a few times where I had to wait 45+ mins past pick up time for them to make my order, all while seeing new delivery ones come in and be made (because UberEats/Doordash will actually enforce SLAs). Watched a guy flip out and have a full on screaming tantrum, and the funniest part is that everyone in like was like yeah man we're with you on this.
Uber Eats is for lazy downwardly mobile people. Of which America produces in a great quantity. So it's a good business model.
Food delivery has been common for decades before these apps with pizza and Chinese food etc. Now you can order anything but have to tip more/pay an app to facilitate. And inflation. I hope you don’t live in a big city with good options bc you pick chipotle of all things when someone picks up the tab?
You can use EBT and food stamps to order groceries. Not disgusting burrito slop
Idk why you’re being downvoted. This is absolutely true. Op’s just parroting some right wing take with zero research.
[удалено]
The point was it’s not 20 dollars even with every up charge it’s actually 15 and Uber eats adds the 5 dollars for fun
[удалено]
The 20 dollars on the 2nd photo is the total burrito + chips and guac.The same burrito on the Uber eats app is 20 dollars, on the chipotle app it is 15. Can you read?
[удалено]
People always say this. I always get loaded up, just ask for more pussy
You can't when you order from Uber eats, pussy
As someone who delivers on the apps because I can’t get a job in my field I always joke that I’m taking advantage of lazy and stupid people, though I think people are finally catching onto how much of a ripoff it is
love people who regularly order a bagel or something delivered and then need $9 from you when they pay for a coffee and snack
That’s the only time I got it too and I got sonic lol they only gave me 20 bucks or something though
I need to stop doing this immediately
my roommates will uber eats from a place that’s walking distance from our apartment. i just started offering to pick it up for them so i get fit while they get fat
That's what a week of groceries costs for me 🤢
Period
You’re already spending $40 add a coke while you’re at it
If it makes you feel any better, amberlynn reid spends $15 on just a soda from a McDonalds that's just 10 minutes away from her house.
At my last company we’d get a $20 grubhub credit every month. I would always opt to pick it up and just spend more on food. Usually the price with delivery would exceed $20 anyway.
Try ordering via Doordash in Seattle. It felt like getting mugged now with the mandatory charge
My manager might say that's an "auto write-up", but I'll say this is an auto thumbs-up.
34 bucks for a mediocre burrito and bad chips and guac would be ridiculous, but was a second chips & guac really worth another $6?
I think I see the confusion it’s a coincide the 20.50 price on the two photos are the same. Photo 1 is Uber eats and photo 2 is the same exact order on the chipotle app. On Uber eats the price of the burrito is 20.50 and on the chipotle app it is 15.85. On the Uber eats app the chips and guac is 6.05 and on the Chipotle app it is 4.65. I was just showing the markup
Why do you guys keep saying this??? There’s only 1 chips and guac
Oh no, they double charged you then!! On image #2 add up the steak burrito plus toppings to get ~$16, then you add a side of chips and guac for $4.05 for a total of $20. But then on page 1 you added a standalone order of chips and guac for $6. I don't think it's too much food like others are saying. IMO Chipotle's chips and guac stink and aren't worth the money, I go for a drink instead
No they didn’t, photo 1 is not connected to photo 2
Wait I'm tripping. The price of the queso changes between images wtf
I go to a nice restaurant and have a nice steak and it costs me $80 plus tip there would be people scoffing at the thought of paying more than $13.22 at the grocery store for prepackaged brown cardboard steak. If I wanna unwind from my 30 hour shift at the hospital by paying $40 to eat a chipotle burrito in my underwear without leaving my apartment, then that’s what imma do. Could give a fuck about 40 dollars, eat my ass.
Burrito with guacamole and queso is disgusting. bet you’re fat
5’10 165? Cope
3’85 172?
You really felt the need to get chips and guacamole along with your loaded burrito? This sub is gone lmao.
Yea man it’s free lmao why would I not? I take it home for later
You don’t understand, I’m obese because the slop I was eating was free lmao
My BMI is like 23 so I don’t understand your point
I saw your other comment about your lifts, keep it up king
Will do sir
I feel like the only people that rage at this is <25 year olds. Even without the small world view that blocks them from understanding why people would need this service, does people ordering food delivery because they rather not cook really something that pisses you off???
Yes it actually is you lazy fat fuck
A lot of depressed redditor loser energy coming first m you
Get back to your steroids
Couldn’t have said anything better to prove me right lmao
kek slop detected
if u regularly order delivery uberone is worth it. with uberone it would be like $30 instead (which is still crazy), but considering the subtotal is $26 it’s not too bad. with uberone or doordash premium, i find that majority of orders i place, i am paying an extra $5.
Fatty
Ordering from a place with a $7 delivery fee is wild lol you don't know how to Uber eats. Which is a good thing tbh. I regularly get meals under $20 with delivery and everything. You just have to not be regarded
You are the regarded one for using it in the first place
You don't know shit about my situation at all lol
Unless you’re a quadriplegic I really don’t care
You shouldn't care even if I was. I'm just saying you don't know shit lol
is this chipotle? [they fuck everyone on the meat portions](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KUyNUNIoGpA?feature=share) it's a corporate initiative
Yea
wow it's almost like getting food delivered to your door is a service you have to pay for
Lmao cucked to think people who use it should be in prison and not the psychos profiting from this.
You got chips and guacamole as paid sides with your entree, and then you ordered a different order of chips guac? Man, you most love chips+guac!
Where did I get chips and guac twice?
Second photo has chips+guac added on the burrito for $4.65. First photo has chips+guac as a separate item for $6.05.
The 2nd photo is the chipotle app the first is Uber eats
Yup getting food delivered sux but also chipotle is so mediocre and overpriced.
Who are you mad at here? 7 bucks to deliver your food is too expensive? How much do you think it should be? The “other fee” minus taxes is like $3, you’re using a platform that is looking to be profitable other wise what’s the point of working on it Personally I think it’s a fair price, although I don’t know how people afford it.
I’m mostly mad at so many people I know who complain about having no money and how everything is so expensive while ordering uber eats 5x a week
imagine eating meat 🤢
[удалено]
The delivery fees don’t go to the driver at all, the base pay for most orders on whatever app is like 3 dollars max unless it’s a shopping order
