You know how it is, it's a Saturday so you go out into the garden for a quick interface with nature before the next 10 hr Fortnite / Netflix combo binge to find your dog has left numerous piles of digested food all over the place. What do you do? Get online to AirTasker to post a job requesting someone come over to pick up the shit. Yes, seriously, that's what they do these days when help is just a click away. Need a pack of ciggies but are "too unwell" to go get them for yourself? Airtasker! Need a couple of vibrators in a hurry? Yep, someone on there will help you. For a price. Just when we thought with Facebook that humanity had hit rock bottom. How low can we go?

Just tried out postmates for some food and it was an awful experience. The restaurant says food was picked up but I never recieved anything and the driver is not getting any closer according to the map. Also, they have no phone support, only email. I think I am going to end up cancelling this transaction through my bank.

Yea, it appears the drivers stole my order twice. They did cancel it and give me a ten dollar credit.
