DoorDash announced that it’s introducing “ultra-fast” deliveries with a single location in New York City, by testing the business model of hiring full-time employees, not gig workers, to handle these faster deliveries, using e-bikes capped at speeds of 20 mph.

 The company also announced that ultra-fast deliveries will offer a new opportunity for couriers who are seeking a set schedule and more earnings. DashCorps, a newly created DoorDash company, will employ courier employees who will work regular schedules and report to a manager. The employees will be paid an hourly wage starting at $15 per hour plus tips and will be offered other full-time benefits like medical, dental and vision insurance

  2. The two worst cars I ever owned in my long driving career were Mercedes. Electronic nightmares. The first one was so bad I invoked the Texas Lemon Law 22 months laster, and they swapped the old one out for a brand new car. Same story second verse.
    Look at the values of the S-Class Mercedes. Initial cost stratospheric. Cost five years later, affordable.
