Comment on As if the tip actually goes to the dashers.
Bonehead@kbin.social 8 months agoWhy are customers responsible for ensuring that workers get paid fairly? I'm looking for a service. If your service cannot exist without exploiting your workers, then it doesn't deserve to exist. You are not entitled to exploit people for your own gain.

If you know the workers are being exploited, and you use the service anyway, how are you not partially responsible for exploiting them? It seems like you feel entitled to exploit them for your own gain as a customer. I agree that the employer is also responsible. A way to hold them accountable would be to eschew the service altogether. Otherwise, what incentive do they have to change?

I don't use these services, for that exact reason. I'd rather cut out the middle man and contact the restaurant directly and then pick up my own order. That way all the money goes to the restaurant, instead of some business who's only purpose is to extract money from other people's work.
