They steal from everyone. My wife was stuck in a hotel with no room service about a year ago and didn't feel up to walking for food. She found that she could get a free year doodash subscription through her Amazon Prime. She joined, got her food and promptly cancelled the subscription. We've just been through the joy of getting a refund for two months of doordash that hit our credit card.

Lawyers are gonna get a huge chunk of that too. An already too low number gets diluted until it's a joke. I'd be surprised if any individual driver gets more than$100. Fucking joke.

I'd like to point out these people would be out of business tomorrow if we quit giving them our business.

They only have to go up to minimum wage.

I mean, that's basically how the entire hospitality industry operates at this point.

The early history behind tipping was basically to not pay black people and keep some simulacrum of slavery. Black people were historically pretty predominant in the hospitality industry - a good way to pay them shit, and make them dependent on the generosity of white people.

Also I believe I found the related source: https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2025/attorney-general-james-secures-1675-million-doordash-cheating-delivery-workers

I didn't see anything on a quick read about how they came up with these numbers, or if there are any more serious penalties. Seems like a pretty light penalty.
