Title: Uber Eats App
Post by: Josh on July 10, 2019, 09:09:12 PM
I haven't tried any of the other food delivery apps, but Uber Eats is pretty awesome. I imagine it's a godsend to you stoners.

I don't even remember the last time I had food delivered, it's been years and years.

Meh! I have used Grubhub/Eat24hour all over the country. Though an occasional restaurant may screw something up, GH/E24H is always great at their part.

The owners of those companies will have to answer for their crimes once we start up the guillotines

I try to tip in cash if I can. I work from home and occasionally use GrubHub, Uber Eats, or Postmates.

The old standard is $5 and a bong hit for the pizza guy. Now it's  probably $25 and an edible.

I always tip well and give the driver a good rating. I haven't had reason not to. Right now it's tourist season where I live, so restaurants are jammed with out-of-towners and so are the roads. Being able to follow the progress of my delivery from the restaurant to my door from the comfort of my recliner is worth the extra $.

I'll have to try some of the other apps at some point.

Grubhub doesn't have any restaurants where I live. I downloaded DoorDash and that one actually has more options than Uber Eats. I haven't tried it yet, but it's got the good authentic Mexican place that I love.

What is the scenario that you use these apps. Lunch at work? Just don't want to go out?  Too drunk to function in public?  Watching a tv show and can't  leave?  Stupid kids?

Hey that second to the last one is the now closed Woodsman Tavern. Man I miss that place. That was my hang.
