I feel like half the time when I’ve ordered from a delivery app, the photo of the person delivering does not match who ends up handing over my food. Like, completely different gender or race. Why is this? I assume people are delivering under the account of someone they know, but why?
I got curious a wondered why on Uber there were so many people named Fnu, turns out it’s what they default to if the name has unique characters or symbols.
FNU = First Name Unknown
I only had a driver listed as “NFN” and it meant that he had no first name. It was a very interesting story but I forgot it all because I was fucking wasted at the time.
That’s fucking amazingly hilarious(ly bad) but mostly just hilarious. The systemic enshittification of the entire concept of service jobs is basically complete at this point. As an anonymous, replaceable delivery drone nobody cares about your name not even the company employing you just, like, leave it empty it’ll use the default name or some shit and get to work, deliveries are waiting.
