The best protest is for workers to quit. Once the company can no longer provide a service, they will be forced to pay wages if they want to stay in business.

The customer protesting is the same result, except the worker will not be leaving on their own terms because cuts will be made rapidly and sporadically. At least with the former, the worker can plan their exit.

Which is all well and good, except that it's putting a huge burden on the people least able to shoulder it.

I mean, follow the chain of events to it's logical conclusion. If you don't tip and your order goes through as a $2 job to the driver, how does it get delivered? The better-off drivers who can afford to pass on that job will skip it without a second look. Which means, if UT gets delivered, it is getting picked up by a driver who really, REALLY needs every dollar they can get. So much so that working for pennies on your 2-dollars-for-40-minutes job is acceptable to them.

And telling someone that desperate to just quit to stick it to the employers is rich. Real "some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make" type stuff.
