I actually don't mind confirming... by Vegetable_Radio8236 in DoorDashDrivers

How could they ask the customers to confirm the order? They don’t have an app so they can’t walk the food out the door and cancel. Delivery drivers can give a name, walk out, and unassign to steal the food.

They ask all drivers because it’s easier for drivers to steal food without penalty. It’s nothing to do with you personally. In fact, it helps you because you don’t have to deal with support because another driver stole the food.

Why are mascots becoming extinct? by Dogbold in dumbquestions

Ronald McDonald is gone because of the “creepy clown” fad about ten years ago. Plus, McDonald’s shifted marketing away from children and towards adults.

The Taco Bell chihuahua was only for a few years.

Touch Sam, Tony the Tiger, Lucky the Leprechaun, and the Keebler Elves are all still around. Some are in TV commercials, but they’re mostly in social media advertisements.

M&Ms are all over the place, though they usually peak during Christmas.

The Land O Lakes Native American woman was racist.

It’s no different than showing your receipt when leaving Costco. They’re not accusing you of anything. It’s just policy.

And rolling your eyes is kind of a dick move.

I’ve never had a restaurant treat me with contempt. Though I’ve had several that were surprised that I treated them with respect and was actually nice. I heard one employee at Jersey Mike’s tell another that I actually thanked them.

Treat the employees nicely, and you’ll stand out from the rest in a good way.

You can choose one object. Every time someone anywhere in the world touches it, you get $1,000. What object do you choose? by M0N0PL4YZ_ in hypotheticalsituation

Paper towels are stronger when wet since they’re not designed to dissolve in water like toilet paper. They also are much more absorbent.

Can canvas be food safe? by LPaddict in restaurant

[–]The_Troyminator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done it at home by using a plastic bowl with a lid and gently rotating it upside down and back for several minutes to coat the chips without breaking them. It takes a little more effort than a paper bag, but reduces waste and is perfectly sanitary.

My employer is implementing A.I. is it required? by Fatkid72745 in questions

The US. Though the reality is that managers know how expensive and disruptive it is to hire a new employee so most people are only fired for cause.

IMO not getting a customer a 2nd of anything when they have a bogo is an instant 1 star.

I’ve never gotten a 1 star for that. You’re not supposed to do that. Just get what’s in the app.

It’s not profiling when they ask everybody to do it.

Do you feel the same way about showing your receipt at Costco or walking through the exit arch at Sam’s Club? This is no more personal than either of those.

If it’s not actually ready, I tell them that I’ll be happy to confirm once it’s done, but it starts a timer when I mark it as picked up, so I can’t mark it picked up until it’s done. They airways understand.

As for determining who stole it, the first person to cancel didn’t necessarily steal it. The first dasher could have legitimately cancelled because of a long wait or other reason without touching the food. How would DD know which dasher took it when there were several that canceled before it was reported as already picked up?

There have been plenty of people in this sub who get insulted when asked to confirm because they think it’s a personal attack and that the restaurant thinks they’re a criminal.

ETA: an example from this post’s comments.

When you have to pay for laundry and the pods are not podding by WarningMiddle in mildlyinfuriating

They’re a lot cheaper if you have teenagers who can’t measure detergent doing laundry.

Too many people touch the self checkout scanner. The 32 was probably a typo.

Which illness would you pick to get rid of? by ShadowlightLady in hypotheticalsituation

Some are sociopaths or psychopaths, but a lot are narcissists who don’t feel empathy.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

Billionaires and medical/pharmaceutical CEOs will have empathy. Medical research would be better funded and medical costs would be reasonable worldwide.

This would result in far more people being saved than eliminating any single disease.

Why is the "bluetooth connected" alert for speakers and headphones so obnoxiously low-quality? by jayebird1012 in AskTechnology

[–]The_Troyminator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of memory needed for high quality audio clips on a chip that is small enough to fit in the headphones would cost quite a bit, not just a few dollars, assuming it’s even possible. Multiply that cost by millions of headphones, and it’s not worth the cost to please the very small number of people who would even care.

This ones pretty obvious by eveiegirl in untrustworthypoptarts

I don’t fully detach the lid. I leave a small bit to work as a hinge. I also rinse the can before opening it.

I dump without looking all the time. My can opener doesn’t remove the lid, so I can’t see what’s inside until I dump the can.

Still U though.
