Let's be clear. The issue is tipping. We need to make it illegal. They should be paid. Always. Transparently. Not up to the fucking whim of a high person ordering a single slice of cake from across NYC. We need regulation. Stop recommending tips. That puts the blame on the clients, which will never fix the issue. It only makes the corporations have wiggle room to abuse their employees.

I agree tipping is terrible, but NOT tipping someone out of protest isn't what is going to make it go away. It's just going to screw over the tipped worker. We need to push for legislation to outlaw tipped work/ close the loopholes in the minimum wage law. while we do that, we need to tip people. When the legislation gets passed and enacted, THAT is when you can stop tipping people.

The problem is still not tipping but exploitative business models where workers get less pays when they get tips. Tips were supposed to show appreciation for the workers and should never have been a part of what the business counts for workers' wages. But for some reason that is acceptable and the ones showing appreciation is now the bad guys? If you ask me, that's identifying the wrong problem.

I do food delivery in Sweden for a huge delivery conglomerate that doesn't operate in the US, and it is a bit different here. First, we're actually employed by the company. We're entitled to sick pay, insured, and we get holiday allowance, but our schedule is little less flexible. We can still work as much as we want, but there are shifts to choose from and we're expected to work a minimum of 10 hours per week. There is no option for customers to tip through the app, and basically no one in Sweden carries cash. I get 0 tips. Instead, I get a wage that can easily accommodate my student lifestyle. US needs laws.

I don't really care, but in your magical land where we just pass a law to make gig work illegal door dash would just shutdown overnight. Delivery would have to cost 50$ for a sandwich and side if that passed. They're already not profitable cutting all these corners now. In what universe would making them take on 10x the overhead make any sense? Food delivery is a terrible idea to base an entire company around. This isn't new information. It will never be profitable unless you at least double the cost.

Unfortunately "employers should" is dead in the US - so if you don't tip, they don't get paid. So you definitely should tip when going there - as the only ones getting hurt by you not tipping, are the people who have the lowest wages! I've made it a habit to tip around 20% when I'm in the US. If it's a very large bill I might go as low as 15%, but it's rare - if the service has been horrible and they haven't excused it, I have on a very few occasions gone as low as 10%, and if the service has been above and beyond, as high as around 25% I have on a very few occasions even tipped nearly 30%. At home I only tip when the service has been above and beyond what can be expected - but here we have living wages and no one depends on tips to make it!

12:44 The fact that some people can't access food because they need a car in order to get food is an indictment on the way our cities are designed in America. Forcing the elderly to operate heavy machinery at literal break neck speeds through our public spaces, is horrifying. Many disabled people, poor people, old people, young people, cannot drive. There needs to be many more dense walkable cities in America like there used to be. Building with the assumption that everybody can just drive everywhere for every little reason is amazingly stupid and wasteful.

When I’d drop off closed food bags that I assumed had everything ordered and I couldn’t open… when someone saw something they were missing, they’d give me one star and blame me for not checking. I couldn’t. I’d ask the restaurant if it was all there and they’d say yes. I’d get hit for it.

I don't know how it works where you live, but here where I live, if you use your own car, bike, bicycle, or similar, you can deduct it on your taxes. If you're an independent contractor and need a separate car for your business, you pay a lower registration fee as well. Unfortunately some of the apps are set up in a horrible way, so criticism of what was delivered, ends up falling on the delivery. I've made it a habit to always contact the company that made the food and packed the order. It's usually not like they don't make mistakes if I go there to pick up the food myself - and having worked as Pizza Delivery back when it was the Pizza place that hired their own delivery, I know that of course mistakes happen.

The customers dog has bitten another delivery driver a month prior and the as report. Yet DoorDash kept allowing them to order, I got a credit for that order of $2. I was unable to walk for 2 weeks. The customer was a complete asss about it but the city of Houston investigate . In the end nothing was done.

As a Dane, I want to remind John Oliver, our police is much different than the American police, hence why Lego, a Danish company, that is still headquartered just a few hours from where I am right now, may have an issue with the United States of America, where cop violence is rampant, using their image The cops in Denmark, are not allowed to draw their guns, unless it’s a very hostile situation, and we have very rarely a situation where lethal force is being used. So yes while Lego is pro-cop, they’re pro-peaceful cop. Denmark as a country and therefore also a lot of the culture is based on the police meant to protect the people, all the people.

Being a delivery driver made all the difference when I was between jobs, wanted to save for trips, and also make money while on a trip where I could just turn on the app and also see a bunch of an unfamiliar city. Also, now that I live in LA, we get a guaranteed hourly wage around $20 and the Dash branded city bikes with an enclosed basket are only $1.75 to rent. I've never felt it was some oppressive trap but definitely the easiest way to get guaranteed money the day you need it.
Doordash driver here, i do it in a large college based city and a lot of the kids are rude as shit, unappreciative and don't even tip. I don't know if everyone thinks we make bank from doordash themselves or what, but i don't make shit without tips and isn't even worth doing without them. And now they've changed stuff and made qualifying for high paying orders sooooo much harder and haven't actually increased the benefits any. Before it was just 150 orders done a month, 4.7*+ rating and 70% acceptance rating. Now it's 100 orders per *WEEK* 95% completion rating, 80% acceptance rating and 4.7*+ customer rating. And no one is made to tip and if you get under 95% completion rating they can just nuke your account out of existence. I was making $250-$300 a day just a couple of months ago, but since they made these new changes I'm lucky to make half of that and it pretty much just destroyed my job that i actually enjoyed having.

I'm not making that kind of money for months now and just to get back to making a decent amount, not even more than what I was making before, I have to go through all of this extra bullshit. Catering orders, which were how I made that kind of money, were not going to the students, those were going to actual adults who weren't living off mommy and daddy. Like I said they're now requiring 100 orders a week for one of the requirements up from 150 a month for it, just to keep making the same amount I was before with no extra benefits. And yeah exactly like the other guy said, that really isn't that much with the wear and tear on *MY* vehicle. My complaint was never with the way things were just a couple of months ago, it's the changes they've made to make the job now suck. I still dealt with some orders that didn't have tips or only tipped me 50 fucking cents and it wasn't a huge deal because that's not where most of my money came from anyways it was catering orders and I actually enjoyed my job, now *ALL* I get are those orders and I don't get any catering orders at all.

The delivery companies are artificially pushing down the price to make the offer seem more attractive to customers. Driving our delivery across town has a price - it costs gas, time and vehicle wear and tear. When we don't tip, we pretend the cost is zero. Nobody owes us to bring our food over for free.
I have never ever used a food delivery app. Maybe I just dont eat fast food enough, but the thought of getting semi-cold fast food for twice what it costs just turns me off to the whole thing.

Got to watch this before it got taken down, love it
Finally an episode from beginning to end
LETS FUCKING GO WE GRABBED IT BEFORE HBO MAX TOOK IT FROM US!!
Annnnnnd that's how the 'Glazing my Uber Challenge' began....
Every negative review on uber eats either was this: - the store messed up and i can open sealed bags to double check - i took too long to find them in the apartment complex. One time tacobell messed up the order and i offered to go back to the store and get the missing item, but he still gave a negative review.
I am glad they added the non main story additions. Well worth waiting until Thursday.

@@GlitchDude That does not mean the Thursday release would not be available today. I am not at my pc spamming f5 on thursday for the LWT upload. And the fact that it is no longer available where I am, means it was a mistake.
Whether it was a fluke or intentuional I am so happy to see an episode on the YT channel uploaded right after the broadcast again
We were very heavy users of delivery during the pandemic, but we have completely stopped. The cost was just too high and the mistakes being made by both restaurants and drivers increased significantly. I've had missing items, wrong preparation and delivery of someone else's order. Where I live, there are no bike deliveries, it is all in cars, and I could see in the app that the drivers were making multiple pickups (with waits at each pickup) and multiple deliveries. Having food sit in their car for 45+ minutes is unacceptable.
The only positive that came from Covid was door dash came to our little town. Then Wal-Mart started competing with delivery as well. For elderly, this was literally a life saver in our anti-vax state, groceries and meals and laundry soap they didn't have to risk their lives to get. For disabled and folks without vehicles, it gets groceries and over the counter meds to you without having to haggle with cousin Bubba, in this town with no public transport. For folks commuting or working two jobs to make ends meet, it means you can get a meal delivered after work +two hours on the road, or on that twelfth day in a row while longing for day sixteen when you're off from one job. It also filled the gap for work between the state cutting off unemployment earlier than any other state and your workplace not re-opening and finding another job that wasn't at McDonald's [which is still paying sheet wages here]. It's a crazy world that makes no sense and is so freaking imbalanced between have lots and have nothing it's a wonder any of us don't long for a slice of cake every day! [tho not tipping is just demonic and should make you choke on the luxury imho]

Heck, while there's still a great distance between the "have a lot" and "have nearly nothing" here where I live - one can at least make a living wage working on McD. 37 hour work week. 5-6 week paid vacation. Paid sick leave (including child's first day sick) Paid Parental leave. We have the world's highest taxes, but aside from medicine, dental care, chiropractor, physiotherapy, and psychologist - all healthcare is universal. The others are subsidized and medicines have progressing subsidiaries, so if you have expenses for more than around 600 $ per year, you don't pay anymore. If you have certain conditions physiotherapy can become part of the universally covered healthcare, and some people can apply for a heavily subsided dental program where they pay 300 $ a year and then no matter what needs to be done, it gets done - but nothing fancy... Add to this, higher educations are tuition free, students only pay for copy paper, books, PC, etc... We even pay them a 1K $ state grant each month as long as they study, and they can get a State Financed low rent Student Loan - the conditions for the grant and loan are that they focus on their studies, so if they take a month during their summer vacation where they work their ass off earning money, they can't get the grant that month. Oh, and we have subsidiaries for housing as well so low income earners can afford living in a nice appartment. BUT, we have some serious high fees for buying a car. This isn't much of a problem if you live in the city you work in or live in a city that is well connected with public transportation to the city or town you work in. But if you live in a small rural community - it's very hard to do it without a car. Of course the further out you live, the cheaper are the houses usually also - but still.... During COVID we also had several companies starting delivery services. And some had to stop again because they alienated our labour unions. We have some strict laws that make it harder for businesses who wanna use the "private contractor" loophole instead of employing people under regular rules. Uber had a very short lifespan here for that same reason. But one of the retail franchise made a brilliant move. They made an app - where people could sign up to help each other out, so customers could sign up to bring goods to other customers in their area, (so they're volunteers, and get a fixed rate of money (maybe 7 or 8 $ or so), as a supplement for gas). The service is open to everyone as long as someone will bother, but it's mostly elderly, disabled, and people who for some reason have a hard time dealing with being out in public where all the so called "normal" people roam freely. The store packs the goods, so all the one who sign up for it has to do, is pick it up. The store only charges the customer for the gas money - I think it's a brilliant idea. Oh, and I haven't yet figured out why there aren't more smart Americans who've started emigrating to Europe - especially not if they hold education where there's a high demand in several European countries....
This is the first time seeing an intro sequence!!
This is the entire thing!!
I love the irony that the algorithm decided to give me an advertisement for doordash while watching this
Actually knew everything about the delivery apps which is why I have never used it at all. Truly hope the rest of the population were smart enough to know the harms those apps have done.
Someone messed up at HBO and may he have a blessed life 😂
It’s now been taken down. Glad I watched it when I did
I've been thinking that the Devil's part has been better for years. I'm glad JO could give me this satisfaction.
Thanks for making this episode available. Watching before it gets taken down. 😁😉
Holy crap, full episode! THANK YOU!
Best talk show for a reason
Never used a food delivery app before - after watching this I'm glad I haven't.
Yessssss thank you overlords!
Praise be the full episode
This show before bedtime is my lullaby!❤
Legendary Episode!
Imma take this as HBOs apology for making us wait until Thursday these past few weeks 😅
This is a full episode and it launches the same time as max? Must be an Easter special. Can’t see this happening again next week.
DO NOT TIP. DO NOT ACCEPT UNDERPAID JOBS. ONLY THEN… will actual positive change be forced to happen in an industry.
I am surprised no mention was made of "tip-baiting" - making an order giving a generous tip in hopes of preferential treatment in delivery, and then after it's delivered cutting the tip severely (some cases to no tip at all).

The empathy for the single cake slice owner was nice to see.
