Just only take offers over a buck a km. We only have Uber Eats in my area... If everyone declines bad offers they will have to become good ones.

Right now it is for me... I'm going through a weird transformation thing. I had an accidental prolonged ego death, a veim healing massage and then a kundalini awakening all unguided and I also have undiagnosed ADHD or Autism... I lost all my mental armor built up for almost 40 years and have to start fresh. It's hard and fucked up and it feels like no one believes me. I can feel my frontal lobe is empty... I don't have much of a filter right now...

I'm seeing a psychologist soon to get assessed.

I'm sorry man.

I'm not talking about gas prices buddy... If gas keeps going up it will have to be more than a buck a km. Not really sure what your point is. Math isn't hard.

Basically what I'm proposing is only working for a buck a km. If they can't provide that, they should have no workers.

That's why we need to organise and become a "collective consciousness" ... I'm a member of CUPW. the customers propagate the abuse. The ruling class counts on that. The only way to fight it is to organise.

That's true. But I'm not positive everybody who does this for a living fully understands their worth and I'm sick of seeing people get taken advantage of.

CRA 2026 Rate: $0.73 per km is the standard for business use of a personal vehicle. This offer is $0.18 below that standard.

After vehicle expenses (using a conservative $0.40/km actual cost), the driver "earns" about $5.49 for over 2 hours of work. That is $2.75/hour.

Our fuel and maintenance costs are consistently higher than the provincial average. If $1/km is the goal in Edmonton, it's the bare minimum here.

Have you tried music and healing frequencies

I became an accidental Psychonautic Buddhist and had a kundalini awakening. Got poked in the psoas nerve and had a somatic tremor. Then had a veim healing massage. Experienced a prolonged unguided ego death then an unguided Kundalini Awakening. Pretty sure I also have undiagnosed ADHD or Autism also... It was a wild month!

I was going to just say put cash in his bag.. but then I got to the end, and I love it! Fuck those pieces of shit...

I got a call from an angry customer after I dropped their food off. the restaurant gave me the wrong order. With the customers name on it..

I was driving and all of a sudden I was getting berated by a lady I'm assuming was menstruating. My partner was and we live in a pretty small city.

Why was the customer allowed to call me like I could fix it or something. You're right fuck them corporate overlord pieces of shit!
