@1a@heatherhaddon 3/3. Lastly, there is a screenshot going around social media saying DD takes away from drivers tips and applies it to the base pay. This is not true!!! This was an old model that was changed in July 2019 after some much deserved backlash.
@1a@heatherhaddon 2/3. a Covid sick pay program with fairly lenient qualifications (recently changed from 60 days as a driver to only 30 and supports drivers if they aren’t sick directly but a family member is).
Someone straight up asked for extra fries with their small fry at @FiveGuys tonight and they got it.
Not sure if I think that guy was just trying weasel some free fries or if he really needed that.
We could all use some extra fries right now.
QUARANTINE DIARY
Day 1: I have stocked up on enough non-perishable food and supplies to last me for months, maybe years, so that I can remain in isolation for as long as it takes to see out this pandemic

The 9/11 attacks killed about 3,000 Americans and we spent $2.4 trillion on two wars of retaliation. So I guess we're going to spend $800,000,000 per Covid-19 death on public health infrastructure?
