So you recognized that the shoppers are underpaid/undervalued, and in the same breath are upset you couldn’t reduce their tip? Interesting…

I don't really think that that is much different than doordash or Uber or any of the other delivery type companies.

Why do you want one of the pioneers in social media to die ? Any particular reason ?

And it’s not like you don’t get something for that $3.87B (or whatever it is)…send them off to innovate or optimize existing products. Every one of these large companies has neglected technical or operational debt that they’re ignoring and need to catch up on.

Think activision was 70B not 70M

This is where delivery groceries really shines, it's really useful to the elderly or anyone with mobility impairments.

Facebook made a big mistake on shifting to the metaverse. All the focus is on AI co-pilots in multiple areas, and they are faking animations of Zukkerturd jumping in a cartoon. Personally, I hope goes the of AOL.

I honestly hope that Meta just crumbles under their own weight. They acquired all these other apps, and this Meta company that they can't run like their original platform. They are fucked, or, at least I hope they are.

Evidently, you are the expert on camel dicks.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Saudi Arabia to Send First Female Astronaut to Space Station as Part of Second Axiom Mission by upyoars
It has everything to with the point the original commenter erroneously tried to make. Which is that Saudi Arabia targets and opresses women's rights continuously and sending one into space does nothing to change this.

It was much more of a free-for-all in the early 1900's, probably all the way up until the 80's. Like not even close.

Agreed minus the tipping comment. You can adjust and even remove the tip when the order is complete.

Emphasis because people need to wake the fuck up and learn the truth instead of perpetuating corporate propaganda

Lots of normal people doing the job. For a time it was a good gig for students or part time workers. It was nice bringing groceries to older folks that were worried about exposing themselves during the pandemic.

It doesn’t have a duty to shareholders… shareholders choose the company and accept risk.

I’m not familiar with camel dicks .. are they large? Small? Hairy? Retractable?

I was literally only pointing out that your numbers weren't accurate.
At the end of the day, the company has a duty to it's shareholders. If they could complete the same work with 90% of the workforce, shouldn't they?

A list of people who have left tech giants like Meta regardless of reason would be a tech recruiters wet dream, I have no idea why people believe this blacklist rumor
Do you also think it looks bad on the worker to declare they've been laid off and that it will keep you from being hired, like half of my LinkedIn feed?
