So there's this startup called "SkipTheDishes", that as far as I can tell is the same as a half dozen other shitty startup companies (GrubHub, Deliveroo, etc.) in that they will go pick up restaurant food and deliver it to NEETs who are afraid to leave the house hip millennials whose modern lifestyle doesn't include learning how to work a stove.
Some girl was interviewing for a job with them, and after the first-round interview, she asked them like, how much money would the job pay and did it come with any benefits. This is a big no-no in the startup world, where you are supposed to work for "equity" and because you "really believe in the mission" and you're "excited to change the world." So naturally, DickTheShipses kicked her to the curb.
It made /r/recruitinghell and /r/latestagecapitalism
Now they're trying to do damage-control on Twitter
Hi Taylor, sorry to hear about this - one of our co-founders will be in touch with you shortly.
And they've posted a screenshot of a Facebook message where they offer her another interview. (Sidenote: her last job title was "Assistant Womyn's Liason" but I guess she was in college, so whatever)
But they're still getting ripped apart:
I'll make sure to spread the word so folks never use your shitty service. You priorities are not in sync with working people.
Too late to backtrack. This is going viral. We see you. You're over.
You can be pretty sure I'll be blocking any marketing from @SkipTheDishes
skip screws up our order literally every time we use them. i believe they treat people like this bc they treat me like this.
This will probably start showing up various other lefty websites, soon, if it hasn't already.
