Exactly.

3.25$ X 2 for the metro fare. Approx 5$ for a cup of coffee 25-30$ for lunch. A few bucks more on maybe a drink or a snack.

This adds up.

25-30 for lunch, wtf?? In western eu it’s 5, maybe 7 if you get a drink.

Yea 25-30 is a sit down meal somewhere, in reality most office drones are picking up something quick from fast food or a convenience store for >$15 a day.

Still a waste of money though

You’d be surprised. I was busy at work one day and starving. Almost doordashed a burrito and chips from Chipotle till I saw it’d be almost $25 before tip b
I would be surprised but you said DoorDash, that adds like 40% after you count in DoorDash fees, the raise in price from the restaurant trying to get their fees back, plus the tip.
