They even made DoorDash apologize.

DoorDash on Instagram: We messed up. Our mistakes meant some NYC Dashers were underpaid or paid late. That's unacceptable, and we're deeply sorry to the Dashers we let down. We've reached a settlement with the City of New York, and we will make this right by paying every impacted Dasher the amounts they are owed.

DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.

DoorDash messed up. They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty. That's unacceptable. We've secured a $131.5M settlement from DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in American municipal history. Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.

Need to learn German just so I can discover the exact word for this new feeling of second-hand embarrassment mixed with pure rage from being so offended that this is the world we live in.

Nice to have a citation for the stuff we all sort of assume to be true but question if it's just our own biases making it look that way

Screenshot from the article in the quoted post, saying "Piff and his colleagues found that upper-class drivers were more likely to cut other cars off at junctions and ignore pedestrians at crossings. Wealthier people also appeared more willing to lie at work. In one experiment, volunteers were left alone with a jar of sweets ostensibly meant for children. When the researchers returned, upper-class people had snaffled nearly twice as many candies as lower-class people. “The general pattern seems to be that with wealth and rising power, you become less engaged with the needs of others and less burdened by the needs of social relationships,” Piff said. “Taking candy from children might be the least of our worries but it’s emblematic of the tendency to prioritise one’s own needs over those of others.”
