So it turns out that Reddit post from a disgruntled food delivery app engineer was an AI-generated hoax.

I shared it, and I'll be going back to delete the post if I can find it. Sharing it felt important, and it felt believable. Hell, having worked at a tech startup it felt familiar. But how it felt is much less important than whether it was accurate or truthful. It was neither.

It's also important that if we get taken in by a hoax like this, and we discover it was a hoax, that we correct ourselves. Otherwise it stays out there. People will keep believing it. A lie may be able to travel a thousand miles while the truth is still putting its boots on, but that doesn't mean you don't send the truth out on the road anyway.

Truth matters. Now more than ever. I'm sorry I was taken in by that post, and I'm. Sorry I helped spread it.

“food delivery drivers are so rude to restaurant employees!”

are they tho?

are they actually rude or are they just neurodivergent working one of the only jobs that doesn’t actively punish them for their support needs?

are they actually rude or are they just showing you the screen with all the information you need to know instead of going back and forth trying to give you that information verbally, only for you to mishear the name for the order and ask them to show you the screen anyway?

are they actually rude or do they just not know the specific protocol for picking up an order at your specific restaurant because they vary so wildly from restaurant to restaurant?

are they actually rude or are you making them the press the button that confirms that they have the order in hand before they actually have the order in hand or have even seen the order?

are they actually rude or are they reasonably upset that you just made their pay go below minimum wage by making them wait 20 minutes for you to take 5 seconds to hand them an order they can clearly see with their own eyes is already ready?

are they actually more rude to restaurant employees than restaurant employees are to them? because in my experience restaurant employees often treat us with extreme suspicion, act like we’re beneath them, and often make decisions that we are on the line for
