Heck yeah!!! Love to see it

Oh FUCK YES

Fucking fuckity yes

The doordash story: "hey, do you like getting pizza delivered? What if you could get ANYTHING delivered?" neat! "It's gonna be more expensive" okay "A LOT more expensive." o....Kay "And it's gonna make that pizza more expensive." Wut? "And we won't pay our drivers, so eventually we'll be gone."

Ooooo I want to boycott them so fucking badly over this but I want the workers to get paid. They need a union. We also need a disabilities union. EVERYONE NEEDS A UNION

There's a power, there's a power in a band of working folk!

When we stand, hand in hand!

Good! These companies are awful trying to kill the rights of their drivers.

This is fantastic news!

Man it’s been an amazing week for workers’ rights. Keep it up folks or I’m gonna have to dust off my guillotine

Amazing handle btw, my derby name is Malice (short for Malicious Compliance)

Omg thank you! You also have an amazing handle. For Halloween once I went dressed as Chekov’s cum. No one go it

Oh WOW!! Hahahaha, I'm glad I ran into you here- the MIND on you!! Also, thank you ☺️

LFG!

watch them collectively raise prices to unsustainable levels so they can blame it on "the minimum wage hike"

it's good news anyway but they'll fight it with a capital strike

Yes, rich old foreign white dudes determining how united states pays its employees. Seems to be a growing trend. Capitalism is yummy! Cant wait to see the entire country get sold to foreign investors.

And somehow I bet they don't just suddenly disappear from the NYC market and find a way to continue being competitive, even if it means cutting some bonuses or something.

Is that after taking into cost of gas?

If its gig work like DD we can write off the gas on yearly taxes. Plus some maintenance and the oddball work supplies if you itemize.

Milage not gas,sorry.

EXCELLENT!!!!

YES YES YES

Paying people more fairly. What a concept.

Let's fucking goooooooo

Excellent news.

🔥

i sincerely hope people in other regions can point at this precedent to get a similar wages established for their local delivery drivers too

WOOOOOO

I mean this is a win for everyone else, but I wouldn't be surprised when Uber, door dash, and GrubHub all leave NYC now. Doesn't make any sense to stay and take losses.

PAY UP

Will there be a mandate on the percentage of orders a driver must accept? What if a driver logs in and just rejects the deliveries, how will that factor into the minimum rate? I’m not against the rate, but I could see the companies changing their acceptance policies.

I love this

✊🏻

Awesome.

This will hurt the restaurants unless they pass on the costs to consumers.

doordash and uber et al are already hurting restaurants. eventually the restaurants will rebel

Agreed. Most restaurants are forced to raise prices because of them.

Hell yes.

$18/hr is not much in NYC, more like $30/hr sounds about right
