Especially because the app is called "tea", like the slang term for gossip. The letter of the intention may have been good but the whole thing is toxic.

It's meant to deify these CEOs. Gullible schmoes see this and think "well that makes sense, he spends every hour of his day working. That's three times more than me! No wonder he makes a million times my salary! See, the only reason I'm not making billions is because I don't have the divine skills and talent to work on my company all day." (Or, "I choose to have a work-life balance cause I don't mind making a little less money")

These CEOs have PR teams dedicated to slipping out stories like these so it keeps the CEO looking like a king.

Cradle of civilization is going to be lit around the Indian ocean. It's like a super Mediterranean.

You literally started this by saying it's chill to murder the anarchists because they disagree with you so I don't think those subs will do you much favor either.

Naked, on fire, shooting two automatic rifles and skydiving while Fortunate Son plays.

Its crazy, the only debt I've held is student loan debt and I have paid the bill every single month. Otherwise I use checks and a debit card, I had money to buy a used car upfront.

Went to get a credit card. My credit score is below 700, and I was deemed "unqualified" because, get this, I don't have a history of paying off debt, because I have not held enough debt to prove I can pay it off.

Afaik it depends on the situation. If it's an efficient route and a driver accepts multiple orders from the same restaurant they might be able to take more than one. But in general they don't restaurant hop, and back in the day when I had friends who did Uber eats, it would have to be a choice by the person to pick up more than one order at a time, so it's one driver per restaurant per time window of accepting and order and delivering it at least. And that's probably only assuming you're in a busy city and not a slower rural area.

I only say it's unsustainable because after the food you order from the restaurant is made there are now two people in the chain for a meal for one person. That doesn't square up even before you factor in the cost.

Yeah that's interesting. I wouldn't mind a food bus that drops off food house to house I'm sure that exists in some places and that's definitely more efficient. Although I'm sure right now the food is the same price and the service costs extra which wouldn't happen if it came straight from a distro idk.

I was talking about one person bringing one prepared meal for another person.

Lol no, literally my point. Transporting food wholesale to a centralized place is sustainable and efficient.

Don't forget the sequel: "you just don't understand the history of this ~~region~~ house, honestly you're coming into this discussion way too late, the nuance of this conflict has just been going on so long it's hard to tell who's at fault."

Hiring a whole middleman to chauffer your burrito (if you would be able to do it yourself) is unsustainable even if they walked.

 

Do you just pronounce it like "Travises" like we do colloquially? Or is there some way to do it.
