"For most markets where DoorDash operates, customers are prompted to tip on the checkout screen, with a middle option already selected by default. If they want to, they can adjust the tip later from the status screen while awaiting their food, or even after it’s delivered. That’s changing today; while blaming New York City’s minimum wage increase for delivery workers, DoorDash announced that for “select markets, including New York City,” tipping is now exclusively a post-checkout option"
It seems so ridiculous given tipping fatigue, that DoorDash is making what should be a given sound like a negative.
you know, when I was a kid, safeway used to employ enough employees such that there were no lines for checking out. Well, they got bought out, self-checkout became a thing, and now there's always a line. During peak hours, you get to wait in line for self-checkout and watch people slowly check themselves out like it's somehow still a brand new concept. You're celebrating the decline of service and claiming it's the "best thing that happened to shopping". That's so sad.
