Not on your life buddy, I want it delivered and a full refund.
The driver actually did die.
Did I stutter? I said NOT on your life.

I'm genuinely curious to find out that were your dasher hospitalized, and you clicked that link and went through whatever rigamarole required, they would receive the flowers.
And would they send another dasher to deliver the flowers?
What about if that dasher gets injured and hospitalized? It's just dashers, flowers, and hospitals all the way down.
Is this real or photoshopped? I don't use DD, or most social media so I have no clue if this is real or I've been had.
0.3 away
Away what? Apples? Eggs?
.3 of a delivery, duh.
As in, they were .7 of the way done when they crashed.
Most well universally known measurement system is likely light years, so probably that
Seeing as everything else in the notification seems to be about money, I'm guessing 0.3 dollars.
Surprised they didn't suggest getting another delivery driver for half price to bring it the rest of the way.
Denny's
Texas Ave
Miles.
Yep. Looks like College Station, Texas.
Jfc yeah name a road after your state.
Although there's an Uruguay Avenue in Montevideo so 🤷
I like the Moscow/Saint Petersburg system, wherein they both have avenues/highways named after the other city, leading to said city.
I mean people usually suck at naming roads. Water St is often where the water tower is, Railroad St runs parallel to the railroad, Fish Hatchery Road is where the fish hatchery is, and then there's the tons of roads named after specific families who lived on the land they run through. Granted it's way less dark than the countless cities that are named after the people/natural features that were killed when founding the cities. So many places are named after who and what was once there...

this all seems sensible to me
Is this a late stage capitalism?
👨 🫴🦋
Always has been
No seriously, the term "late stage capitalism" is so old, it has existed longer than capitalism exited before its coinage. So if this really is the last stage, this last stage is already longer than the stages before were.
No lats stage would have you, the person whom ordered the food, responsible for the gig workers hospital stay - as you are their employer.
I need to make sure you know this is a joke photo composed with digital tooling. You do know that, right?
Double oopsie! Your driver delivering flowers to your other driver was in an accident! Would you like to deliver flowers to the driver who was delivering flowers?
"Your dasher crashed, but based on his tracking, he's still crawling towards you. This could induce some delay. If you go meet him on the way, you can get a rebate on your tipping fees!"
"Would you like to call an UberAmbulance?"
It's a trap. Like in the famous documentary, 'The Santa Clause', if you examine the crash site the drivers body will disappear and YOU will become the Door Dasher, and be required to fulfill all of their commitments.
Sir you can't be on this side of the police tape. Are you are related to the deceased?
No, but I'm just going to snag my Mickey Donalds right quick and I'll be out of your way.
At least there's still a chance for profit, just got to sell some flowers
Your flower delivery driver crashed 0.3 away from your food delivery driver. He can still crawl through the fog of pain to the flowers but they might be fucked up beyond all recognition.
Send chocolates to your flower delivery driver's hopsital room!
0.3 what away from me? Miles? Kilometers? Meters? Units matter - I'm not driving to the other side of town just to pick up a bloody pizza.
bloody pizza
It said it might be damaged. We don't know how bad the accident was and how much blood was involved
If you can't be bothered to step out of your comfort zone and travel .3 AU to pick up your food, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe you want the crippled driver to spoon feed it to you.
(/s, obviously)
Parsecs, obviously.
According to Star Wars, Parsec is a measure of time not distance
It's not blood... it's uhm... Marinara Sauce! And that's not an eyeball that's just... a lychee from... another order.
the dasher delivering your flowers to the previous dasher's hospital room, has gotten into an accident
I actually had this happen once. Dasher got in an accident
The app just showed his car going in circles around the point he crashed
"your Dasher has died in a collision but here's a pin drop in the chance you can collect your order from the wreckage"
Needs instructions for in person pickup.
"Your dasher wears a medical bracelet identifying his next of kin. To expedite access to the crime scene to retrieve your order (1x bagel bites, 4x lubricant and 1x grain alcohol) dash++ members can unlock this name to then pose as a direct relation when authorities ask."
Clean up any bloodstains with cold water.
I wonder what % of people seeing this think it's real? People really gotta keep an eye on the community and understand what shitposting means
I mean, I saw the community, yet I had to think of it.
It's “nottheonion” adjacent.
Did you tip?
Nah I'm against the tipping culture
Me too but unfortunately I live in America, so unless it's takeout I tip
Even on non-takeout, I still won't tip sometimes. It's mental how some counter service places are asking for tips. I begrudgingly tip if the person actually does something service related (like bringing me my food), but if I have to do the work to get my order, I don't tip.
I'm not going to punish the service workers for the shitty hyper-capitalist exploitation that is tipping culture
Even in states without subminimum wages, the wage is still usually not a livable one
Don't misunderstand me, I still tip at places where tipping makes sense, like a restaurant or something.
But I'm not going to subsidize every business' payroll just because they found out they can enable a tip prompt on their POS. Like, I don't need to tip every store that has workers making food, especially if they all stay behind the counter.
Maybe that makes me an asshole, but I'm not tipping every business just because they ask for one.
That's how you get shot in 'Murica, since your delivery driver will not understand that its the corpos that deprived them of their pay.
Nah - put the whole thing in, not just the tip.
I'm not going outside in this weather. Especially if I have to put pants on. They should just send a second driver to pull my Arby's out of the burning wreckage and finish the delivery without me having to tell them.
The application let's you send flowers to your "dasher's" hospital room
Taking about dystopian.
We don't care about that motherfucker that damn near killed himself and inconvenienced us, but hey, that's why we do the gig thing so we don't have to insure them! But hey, YOU totally should send him flowers!
There is an artist around who spoofs the big app interfaces to make these even worse thought experiments. I'm guessing it's one of his or hers. Unfortunately I don't remember the name / handle.
Here I found him, Soren.

This one's a little real for any fellow Americans who are self-employed (or have mucked up their taxes and owe a bunch)

If I wanted to go outside in the freezing cold I wouldn't have ordered out, jackdash.
