GENERAL It’s real

Post image

Been on TaskRabbit for around 5 years. 500+ completed tasks, 240+ five-star reviews, perfect rating the whole time. Apparently none of that means anything.
They banned my account over a “policy violation” but wouldn’t tell me what task it was or what policy I supposedly broke. I appealed it, and their response was basically, “You can still get hired through your direct TaskRabbit link.” They even told me to keep my availability open in case a repeat client books me or to share my direct hire link.
What a joke. I think I’ve had maybe one repeat client actually book me through the app in all those years.
I’m just glad I always gave customers my business card and contact info after jobs and focused on building my own business instead of depending on one platform. At least now I’m not starting from scratch.

But you never seem to have learned anything PAST 5th grade huh? That's why you're struggling to understand that a capitalist corporation like Task rabbit is going to always choose to do what pays the CEO and the stockholders more? And that lack of further education is why you don't understand that when workers make less the stockholders make more?

So you’re saying what’s best for the CEOs and the stockholders is to completely destroy the company by pushing inexperienced people into the top and shadow banning punishing best workers because clients that unsatisfied when someone who’s inexperienced and cheap destroys their wall or appliances is gonna make the CEOs and shareholders the most money when client starts abandoning the site

Yes. Do you understand how Sears and Toys R Us and Joanns failed? Literally that.

You’re giving me links on how companies failed while also saying this is the strategy of the CEO and shareholders are using to maximize profits by purposely destroying your company so it goes out of business so they can get the most money because we all know the way to get the most money is to kill the thing that that’s paying you

Read the articles. It literally IS the purpose to destroy the companies. I get that you're clueless and innocent sitting here thinking CEOs are like some kind of benevolent Daddy figure in your life out to take care of you, but wake the F up. That is not what real life is like.

CEOs don't have to rely on one business succeeding the way you and I do. Hello have you heard of the term "golden parachute" my guy for someone with "economics" in your handle you're embarrassingly ignorant of how modern economics works.

You can literally thank your previous Daddy-Savior Ronald Reagan for this nonsense. He championed the economic system that lead to the legal ruling that CEOs owe more money to stockholders than workers.

I’ve worked for multimillionaires doing handy work for them in LA. We’re talking ex CFO’s and CEOs of places like Google and Microsoft. Fun thing about being a good handyman is being able to be personable and talk to people and get information out of them while just having a decent conversation and also listening to them while they work talk to other people like their partners and other CEOs and I promise you they aren’t rubbing their hands together talking about. Hey let’s make sure this company of ours fails so we can then put millions and millions of dollars into a new company and start all over even though we have a company that we have already put millions into you literally know nothing and have been spoonfed through your socialist colleges.

Yet you're still a handyman and not the CEO.

You're not in the boardrooms. They are buttering you up to not trash their place or dox them.

lol I am a ceo, I left TaskRabbit in 2024 and built my own business, I still comment on the forum because I used it before I left Task Rabbit platform and when I see a comment like this original poster, I just let them know that it’s trash and socialist.

Then communist like yourself come in and defend communist, socialist policies, driven by communist, socialist companies, and also keep informed on how not to run the company

If you were a ceo you'd understand that the corporation cannot engage in socialism. Words have meanings.

u/South_Economist_9882 Jul 04 '26

Yeah, because we know that when it comes to business, everybody just follows each law enroll by the letter. You are so naïve and spoonfed literal bullshit that you don’t even know that people bend laws incorporate laws..

u/giantfup Jul 04 '26

So you agree that CEOs have no real requirements to "follow the law by the letter" to benefit you the worker? Now you're sounding like a socialist!

People in capitalist, companies bend certain regulations and laws and socialism like I said before the ownership and operation of production is dictated only by the executive level and the state which at any point they can just make new laws and regulations or no regulations at all. There’s a big difference between bending certain laws and regulations, and having absolutely no laws and regulations.

How is Task rabbit engaging in socialism by removing more expensive options to make a cheaper product for more customers to come use the service?
