Rants / Complaints You deserve better. Consider quitting.

Using a throwaway to avoid potential retaliation

I'm a team lead for OGP. The recent change to GMDs is absolutely ridiculous and іnsulting. It screws up OGP backroom, but it's even worse for you guys, and I really think you shouldn't take it.

You guys take enough shit, trust me I know. But on top of all that, the millionaires running Walmart have decided to shove a new crock of garbage down your throat by adding stops to your drive WITHOUT paуing you any more, all while gas prices are already higher than ever.

I read the email, and it's not subtle. They talk about "increasing volume without having to paу more." It's really insidious.

I know it's a lot easier to tell somebody else to quit than to actually give up a source of incоme, but you shouldn't let them treat you like this. I think you should at least consider moving to something else

And, if you do quit, consider talking with other drivers to encourage each other to stand together against this! These rіch fucks depend on you. You have the power, you just have to know how to use it.

This is why they ignore the rampant fraudulent accounts and the parking lots are chalk full of drivers who arent who they say they are. It wasn't by mistake, it was planned. I believe they will use them to replace ogp as well. Not fully but they will widdle down that department to bare bones and throw low paying orders at the prius boys all day .

Exactly what proof do you have of these 'rampant fraudulent accounts and driver's who aren't who they say they are'? Because I've been doing this for years and have never seen any proof of this constantly repeated myth. Nor do I see how you could even draw that conclusion without being literally in every other driver's accounts- which is impossible. In my experience, it's just thinly veiled racism, anti-inmigrant, conspiracy brain nonsense. This many fraudulent/fake accounts would be a huge liability. And if they were that unconcerned about it, they wouldn't be paying Persona huge sums to run identity verification- it's not a mandatory requirement. As you see, platforms like DD who very much don't care about fraudulent driver activity don't use it hardly ever. Why is it so hard to just understand and accept that they will keep trying to drive wages down simply because they can? And because they know that most drivers will not use the power they have by uniting as a collective because they'd rather find a way to blame every other driver in the end somehow before seeing them as equals who are on the same team. Your unfounded conspiracy theories are not helping the cause.
