    Does that make me an honorary male auntie when I deliver plan b?

    This post was made by a delivery driver who was assigned to pick up Plan-B, an emergency birth control medication, and because these assignments can be rejected based on the contents before acceptance, the OP is expressing solidarity and support to someone they probably won't meet.

    Not sure which part you were confused about, so I just did the whole thing :P

    Thank you. I thought PlanB was a rapper or something. This makes more sense now.

    The phrase "Plan B" was a phrase whose meaning a reasonably quick internet search did not reveal.

    it's also called plan b because you have to obfuscate its use from fundamentalists

    I thought you could not see what the client is purchasing until you accept ?

    I used to dash, for grocery orders you can see what the client is ordering before you pick it up. Helps you filter out the bs orders making you get like 20 non related items all across a grocery store wasting at least 30 minutes for $6.25

    Sarcastically how did we ever survive before doordash? People had to actually leave their homes and go to the store themselves? I'm seriously curious how many housebound bed-ridden people were suffering before doordash existed. Or did the existence of doordash create a whole new population of people too lazy to run their own damn errands?

    I've never used Doordash or any other delivery service (local pizza place that offers delivery aside), so I suppose the same exact way I live now? The few people I know personally who don't have the ability to do their own shopping have relatives who shop for them, since family is free.

    When I used to work at a grocery store out of high school, back before there were services people could use to do their shopping for them, I recall a few elderly regulars who would be driven to the store by their local community transport once a week or so, and they'd just hand one of us their shopping list. They'd pay, we'd load their groceries into the transport van, and they'd get driven home where presumably the driver would help them unload.

    On the one hand, seems unnecessary to force someone out of the home to get driven to a store where someone else does their shopping for them anyways, but that was back when paying by cash or check was the norm (hard to trust a stranger with a large amount of cash or a blank check). Delivery services simplify that at least, but I'm hoping they don't have to pay more for that today than they used to, since we at least used to do the shopping part for them for free (not sure how much they were paying for the transport though).

    I can see it being a safety issue in this case. If a woman is in an abusive relationship, having the charge show up as "Door Dash" on their credit card statement could be a lot safer than a charge from a pharmacy.

    I've also used Door Dash to buy things for my friends who live several states away. Or using Door dash to get things when you're sick and don't want to leave the house and get other people sick is reasonable. There are quite a few non-lazy reasons for using Door Dash (but it is a certain amount of laziness most of the time).
