Whether you’re ordering food or whatever the fuck, the corpos nowadays charge you separately for a delivery fee. A fee to deliver.

Which is okay if it actually covers the cost of travel and things that the delivery driver has to perform.

But in the usury fashion of MBB Consulting firms, it doesn’t.

Turns out, that fee is just an extra surcharge of tax by corpos to recoup more money, and the chances of all or even any of it reaching the driver is close to zero. Chances are, they might not offer it to cover gas or other fees. Hell, most delivery drivers are using their own personal vehicles.

Honestly, we can do this one of two ways. Abolish tips in America and start paying for the ask price based on market demand and fluctuations. Or we have enlightened money and financial wizards that realize a subscription and rent seeking economy is shit.

To be honest, Both of those solutions seem unlikely and we’ll probably end up with a third that is shittier and combines the disadvantages of both.

In Closing

Creative financial accounting will invent new ways to nickel and dime you so that you pay for things you don’t need or didn’t consent to. It’s a scam because it’s not even going to pay for the things you think it would pay for based on the name itself being a ‘delivery’ fee. The majority of it doesn’t even go to the delivery itself or the driver.

As the economy goes to shit with greed and profit maxxing and cost cutting ventures, you’ll end up paying more for shittier quality over time. It’s happening with software subscriptions and with hardware for technology.

Chances are, it’ll happen to your milk and eggs,

That’s gelato, bitches.
