This is simply a company using legal distinctions to shift the blame. These delivery drivers should be employees of the company. Besides, tipping is not topical for traditional contractors. Any payment is agreed upon ahead of time in the contract, and payment is made in accordance with said contract. Tips never enter into it.

I get that. My question was facetious.
My friend Geoff. That shifty fucker always wins monopoly.

And Huffman’s programming skills weren’t even that great because they quickly brought in Aaron Schwartz to make it all work, yet they always conveniently leave him off of the founders’ list.
Maybe they’d have money for cars and homes and diamonds if it weren’t for all that damn avocado toast!
Wake me up when there’s some sort of police reform.
The fact that it doesn’t work the same in every browser sounds a lot like anti-competitive fuckery.
Somehow I didn’t get the notification of your comment until now, but this rules. No one could possibly do that better than Jack Black.

Nah I definitely meant to reply to you. I get what you mean now, but your last sentence was pretty ambiguous and made me think you meant the opposite of your more elaborate reply.

What evidence leads you to believe these tapes exist and that authorities have them? As much as I hope that is true, I have been unable to find any evidence other than hearsay.
You’d probably be surprised to learn how little some famous people make.
You’re right that it is an initialism, but you’ve got the inclusivity backwards. Initialisms are acronyms that are not pronounceable, but they are still acronyms whether or not they are pronounced. You did get me questioning my own memory, so I looked it up to double check:
From Wikipedia:
Sometimes, initialism or alphabetism is used to refer to acronyms formed from the string of initials which are usually pronounced as individual letters, as in the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation).
It would be really weird if you kept looking after finding it.
I didn’t say tipping wasn’t a thing for delivery drivers. I said it was not typical for contract work. But regarding this comparison, tipping was in no way expected for deliveries before the apps. Del drivers back then were given a livable base wage and were reimbursed for mileage and gas on their vehicle, which the apps also do not do. I know because I did deliveries in college before the apps. It was also normal to tip less than 10% of the purchase price for delivery, yet the suggested tip values in app are always 10% or more. And another difference is drivers weren’t allowed to pick deliveries based on the tip value, but that’s how the apps work making your “tip” effectively the payment for delivery speed. That’s not how tipping is supposed to work.
But back to what I originally said, tipping is not typical for contract work. There is no other type of contract work where tipping 10-20% is expected other than delivery, ridehsare, and other similar new apps, so the apps created this trend for contract work, and it’s merely a way to pressure the customer to pay their workers so they don’t have to.
