Reply to comment by sagenumen in Inside the Fight to Pay Food Delivery Workers $23 an Hour by jl2l
FDNY and NYPD both use low starting salaries with fast raises as a retention strategy. By year 5, FDNY firefighters make $85k/year, before overtime and holiday pay, and they get four week paid vacation.
OP doesn't care about fair wages though. OP just doesn't want to pay much to have somebody risk their life in traffic to bring him Chik-fil-a. Personally, I enjoy living in a city where if I don't feel like cooking, I get to go for a walk and have a wide variety of choices of where to pick up food.

Right. OP's is an absolute trash position.

It seems like there's a huge number of people who DGAF about delivery workers, unfortunately.

But probably think nothing of firing up Seamless for dinner in the rain.

people who talk about how much they hate the ebikes happily order dinner for their whole family in mid february.
People who tell me it's impossible to use a bike as primary transportation in NYC because of winter also happily order dinner in a blizzard. If a 74 year old Vietnamese dude who sleeps on a crappy mattress and commutes to Manhattan from outer Queens to do deliveries can ride a bike all day in winter, any white collar office worker with no major physical disability can handle 45 minutes to and from work.

Because we don't know if we're both attracted to the other, or if we're both single and/or poly, or if we both have penis and/or strap ons.
And I don't think we're going to find out, because this is not an appropriate forum to ask on, and we both seem relatively polite.
