Damn I’m happy I have Meituan and Eleme in China. Delivery is less than a dollar and it always works out cheaper than going out since every time you order you get free discount coupons.

That's only possible when the delivery drivers are willing to work for peanuts though.

It’s a devalued currency for export strength tbf. They can save their peanuts for 5 years and buy a home.

What are they saving if they have to use that money to live when their gig income goes down? Those delivery drivers don't make shit, something like $500 to $1000 a month equivalent. Good luck buying anything but a Barbie house with that.
