The reason I don't tip on delivery apps is precisely because you're not actually tipping the delivery guy, you're just improving the margins of the delivery platform and preventing them from paying their people a wage that labor supply meets demand

Amazon was using the same controversial tip-taking practice as DoorDash and Instacart. @JMBooyah, who exposed it in February, now reports Amazon will stop doing it. https://t.co/SY8pQK3SYI

I’ve confirmed this means the company will no longer be using tips to meet minimum guaranteed wages. Our story on the reversal of the tip policy we first revealed in February: https://t.co/r8DD4NtlMS

"I'm surprised DoorDash still hasn't updated their tipping policy," said @TheRideshareGuy, who runs a popular blog for gig workers. "It's one of the top complaints we're hearing from workers right now about the company." https://t.co/2UQ0H35x5H

When will you implement a new policy & stop stealing your driver's tips?
Your current model & algorithm amount to corporate theft. Please follow through & stop stealing.https://t.co/wSCyevyxz9
It was @JMBooyah 's reporting in February that lead to this. https://t.co/KAHx9Dralv

Amazon now putting tips on top too, reversing their unsavory tip-swiping policy as did Instacart earlier this year. Looks like @doordash is the only big gig company still swiping workers tips — just shy of a month after they said they would stop. https://t.co/SkUaGQi0CG #payup

Amazon delivery drivers were surprised to learn earlier this year that the e-commerce giant would at times dip into their tips to cover their promised wages.

That’s about to change, according to an email the company sent drivers. https://t.co/AdFtF37UZi

Some drivers are celebrating this as a big win. Others are confused bc of the previous lack of transparency around pay and didn’t realize some of their guaranteed minimum pay wasn’t coming from Amazon. https://t.co/r8DD4NtlMS pic.twitter.com/kcuAwqzr8P

• DoorDash의 팁 논쟁은 회사가 집배원에 대한 고객의 팁을 자신의 주머니에 넣는 정책을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타난 뒤 올해 초에 시작되었습니다.
1. This is a great development.
— Derek Thompson (@DKThomp) August 23, 2019
2. But the fact that Amazon, like DoorDash and Instacart, was using customer tips to meet base pay shows how much of the convenience economy's growth was predicated on end-running common labor standards https://t.co/A7rURFfuAG
It’s wild that companies put out announcements to say they are going to stop stealing from workers. https://t.co/FtCSU7KMmV
