HELP, I'VE BEEN CREAMPIED AND CAN'T GET UP!
happens to the best of us
First time ever the driver tips the customer
Sarcastically how did we ever survive before doordash? People had to actually leave their homes and go to the store themselves? I'm seriously curious how many housebound bed-ridden people were suffering before doordash existed. Or did the existence of doordash create a whole new population of people too lazy to run their own damn errands?
I've never used Doordash or any other delivery service (local pizza place that offers delivery aside), so I suppose the same exact way I live now? The few people I know personally who don't have the ability to do their own shopping have relatives who shop for them, since family is free.
When I used to work at a grocery store out of high school, back before there were services people could use to do their shopping for them, I recall a few elderly regulars who would be driven to the store by their local community transport once a week or so, and they'd just hand one of us their shopping list. They'd pay, we'd load their groceries into the transport van, and they'd get driven home where presumably the driver would help them unload.
On the one hand, seems unnecessary to force someone out of the home to get driven to a store where someone else does their shopping for them anyways, but that was back when paying by cash or check was the norm (hard to trust a stranger with a large amount of cash or a blank check). Delivery services simplify that at least, but I'm hoping they don't have to pay more for that today than they used to, since we at least used to do the shopping part for them for free (not sure how much they were paying for the transport though).
for bed ridden people, they had caretakers.
but I'm willing to bet doordash made people even more sedentary creative more people dependent on it

Does that make me an honorary male auntie when I deliver plan b?
I'd say so :)
Can someone translate, please? :)
This post was made by a delivery driver who was assigned to pick up Plan-B, an emergency birth control medication, and because these assignments can be rejected based on the contents before acceptance, the OP is expressing solidarity and support to someone they probably won't meet.
Not sure which part you were confused about, so I just did the whole thing :P
Thank you. I thought PlanB was a rapper or something. This makes more sense now.
The phrase "Plan B" was a phrase whose meaning a reasonably quick internet search did not reveal.
It's called "Plan B" because it's the back-up plan or contingency plan for when birth control methods otherwise fail.
it's also called plan b because you have to obfuscate its use from fundamentalists

plan b is a pill people take after (unprotected) sex to avoid a pregnancy.
I just want to clarify, that it’s also commonly used for sex where protection was comprimised. (Broken condoms, forgotten birth control doses. Etc)
Saying it’s only for unprotected sex can give a stigma that it’s only used by irresponsible people. It can be, but it’s also a backup plan when your previous planning didn’t work, you know…..a plan B.
Yeah, everyone knows the goto for regular umprotected sex is regular abortions, or so the Conservatives say.
I'd argue sex with compromised protection is unprotected ;)
but yeah, taking plan b does not mean you are irresponsible, it's pretty much the opposite.
So, if a woman cannot use birth control pills nor have a temporary sterilization, and therefore the only usable contraceptive is a condom, her sex life is always unprotected?
Condoms can break if there is a long hair in a spot where it manages to cut the condom's head off. You can learn to check for that, but many people learn that through, well, trial and error.

since condoms are pretty much the best way to protect against all kinds of stds for sex that includes penises, people should learn to use them probably regardless of other forms of birth control they might or might not use.
but overall: if you have unprotected sex, you have unprotected sex, yes.
And also, if you have protected wex, you have protected sex, yes.
One interesting question: how do you know you have learned everything you need to know about condomology? If I understand right, you consider protected sex unprotected, if the people having it are not aware of some safety aspect regarding how to use a condom.
You seem to find it important to stigmatise people for having unprotected sex even in situations where they, by their own understanding, are having protected sex. I'd like you to elaborate a bit more on your philosophy, please! :)

I'm sorry where did they stigmatize people for any sort of sex here?
You can accidentally have unprotected sex by using a condom improperly or using a damaged condom. That's just a fact with no judgement attached to it. If, after the act, you find out that the condom failed for some reason or if you made the decision to have unprotected sex (again zero judgement, I'm not your dad) plan B is not an irresponsible option for contraception. No stigma

no, that's you projecting, i never implied having unprotected sex is a bad thing and don't have a desire to drive figurative nails into anyones hands or feets.
and overall my philosophy regarding safe sex is simple:
if you don't want kids, use any form of birth control that works for the people involved and if you are not sure about yourself or anyother people involved carrying an std use condoms, regardless of other forms of birth control.
I thought you could not see what the client is purchasing until you accept ?
I used to dash, for grocery orders you can see what the client is ordering before you pick it up. Helps you filter out the bs orders making you get like 20 non related items all across a grocery store wasting at least 30 minutes for $6.25
This could be a work of fiction by someone who has never doordashed before. I heard people do lie on the Internet.
This absolutely could have been posted after accepting the order tho.
Yeah, but the post states she accepted it quickly because the order contained plan B. This is just another fictional work for fake Internet points.
