Are you saying that traditional food delivery drivers get trained specifically not to hit on people when they deliver food? I don't have any data but I feel like that's not really a thing. Maybe my concept of the training a food delivery driver gets is way off the mark?
I'm also pretty sure that it's easier to give a bad review that others will see via one of these food delivery apps than it is if you go directly to the business.
I think we all agree that this is inappropriate and should not be happening, I just don't see how it doesn't apply at least equally to traditional delivery drivers.
Ah, internet, never change
Hey, I was up front about my data (or lack thereof) and we're not talking about climate change or string theory, we're talking about fast food delivery driver's onboarding.
"The Internet" would just state it like a fact.
