UberEATS is the newest food delivery service, ready to compete with all the others: Like Door Dash, or Seamless or Campusfood or Delivery.com or Just-Eat.com. What separates UberEATS from all those other ones? Nothing, except for the fact that by using UberEATS you can feel confident that you are getting fresh hot food while contributing to the demise of the middle class from a Silicon Vally company that promises its independently contracted drivers the world, only to pull the rug when these drivers, wide-eyed at the thought of making 76,000 a year, realize the extra taxes, insurance, and 20% commission Uber takes only makes Uber wealthy. While the poor schlubs are making closer to 33K if even that.
As for the young successful childless couple in this spot: Get off your lazy asses and go to the fucking restaurant. Maybe if you tip the guy's waitstaff -- you know, the guy who is slaving away at four in the morning as a labor of love, he might be able to pay his rent, too. Labor of love. Why is it that it never occurs to people that chefs, artists, writers and musicians, or anyone in a non-corporate job also want to be financially successful? The condescension is the reason people get out their torches and pitchforks.
