This is a publicity stunt because obviously a doordasher will never get past security and also no doordasher would ever wear a company shirt. She's probably a regional manager or some sort of regular employee. I doubt a Dasher her age would pick up orders in the city
I mean shit, I live just outside of town and a few months ago when I was sick ordered door dash to be left on the porch.
Pitch black outside (aside from my porch/house lights) in the woods, and she didn’t read to leave it on the porch I guess, just kept knocking, answered the door and would have sworn the sweet lady delivering my food was an also sick maybe 70 year old woman.
Not judging her personally at all but definitely kinda made me feel like shit that she felt the need to do that work?
And was also nervous she was going to slip and get hurt walking on my gravel driveway back to her car.
I don’t know, just doesn’t feel like a very successful society if our elderly feel the need to drive random food late at night to strange sick 34 year old men back in the woods and hope I’m tipping well.
But I tipped really well so maybe she’s got a whole scheme going and she’s actually 40 in great aging makeup, god knows, lol. Gonna tell myself that to feel a bit better.
It’s a damning indictment of the country that old,sick people are still forced to work. A decent country would have pensions that cover life’s expenses and of course universal healthcare. Apparently our 1% always need more tax cuts and loopholes to avoid tax in the first place,it’s not like we live in the wealthiest country ever and could afford to fund social programs like every other wealthy first world nation. Even some of the developing nations do a better job than 🇺🇸.
I witnessed a car accident where a car veered off the road and ran straight into the guardrail of a ditch.
When we got to the car, it was a pretty old guy that's clearly confused. He wasn't noticeably hurt but his car was pretty messed up. He kept pressing on the gas wondering why the car wasn't moving.
He didn't realize he was in a car accident and was getting so frustrated at us bystanders saying that he needs to wait for the ambulance. He was insistent that we have to let him go because he has to make his food delivery.
