Except it wont get passed down to customers and it will reduce jobs. Something we dont fricking need.


It will probably be included as part of a larger subscription service like what Wing has with Walmart. Walmart+ subscribers get free wing delivery otherwise it is $20.

Well your food won't get picked thru by a drone. I can't imagine how anyone feels comfortable with someone handling their food to your house. I've watched these people.

2. I don't do a ton of food delivery but the people I have dealt with are generally a 2 of 10 on the reputable looking and smelling scale.

That’s true in some cases, which means that this:

minimum wage job in the restaurant the food came from originally.

Probably isn’t happening.

Big picture is that this is going to eliminate yet another easily-accessible job for low/no skill workers and eventually, “they’ll find something else” will stop being a valid answer entirely.

Don't be so pessimistic.

It will be easier for the fats to get their slop. Tech companies make more money. Hospitals and pharmaceutical companies make more money. No need to worry about all of the buzzing drones outside since everyone stays inside on the internet.

Houma door dash might be legit. The airport here just got approved for one of the largest, if not the largest, drone programs in america
