That is good news, indeed! May it always be so.
They were abridged though.
You’ve got me, there.
Ok but 38 hours a week for sleep, hygiene? For years? Sleep deprivation alone causes serious mental and physical health issues and don’t just impact the sole individual. That’s deific, and I can see why the gods have issues, and they rest, according to the mythos.
I just don’t see how it’s humanly possible without artificial means and/or serious health consequences (mental and physical). Sleep deprivation is a torture tactic and causes serious issues. Even the gods rest in various mythologies.
I’m not buying 180 hour work weeks, that only leaves 38 hours or so for meals, bathing, etc. I’m not buying 100 hour work weeks for 24 years, either. I am curious what industries need graveyard shift receptionists that aren’t illegal industries.
It was interesting about the sports people, and may or not be believable.
That’s on you
In some ways, loss leading can be done in more or less ethical ways. For instance, a small mom n pop hardware loss leading on lumbar or hammers and taking a reasonable profit on ten penny nails. Or something, maybe a better example is the Costco 1.50 all beef foot-long dog and soda but their memberships are reasonable profit for those who would go often enough and buy enough to make it worth it. It’s late and I’m tired, I hope you get the general gist. But yes, doordash is just double-dipping on the sleazy. And maybe loss leading isn’t ever acceptable, but I’m simply unaware/haven’t thought of reasons that make it so. I’m willing to hear any argument against any of it, though.
That’s your takeaway? It’s like Walmart moving into a town and undercutting indie business prices until the indie businesses close, then raising prices.
What doordash is doing is scraping restaurants’ websites for prices, taking a temporary loss, then going to the restaurants saying, “We got all these orders, it’s a win for both of us!” to sell the contact, then raising prices and tacking on extra fees, making money off the restaurants and the customers

Lol! You can’t read my mind?
Sorry, I was thinking about the current political climate, recent political developments and how that may change. As someone else mentioned, unless you’re in a few specific fields of employment, it’s not happening.
That people normalize this is maddening.
Your country doesn’t want us, unless they’re going to take political asylum seekers while maintaining 38 of our military installations there. I don’t guess that’s in the cards.
To the surprise of no one.
This is great news.
A huge portion of the military supports him.
