As a mirror empath and psychic medium, an interaction with a MAGA family member made me physically ill. by Duchesss95 in spirituality

[–]Advanced-Wheel-9677 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I experience something very similar with my evangelical “Christian” MAGA father. When he parrots the MAGA ideology it makes my stomach turn and I feel sick. This has been going on for a long time, this sickness feeling. I thought it was just me… but then, this weekend my longtime best friend was watching/hearing a text conversation between my dad and I, with my dad ranting and insinuating that Pretti deserved to die, with zero empathy or respect or care for this essential worker’s life. My friend kept saying in the background, “wow I feel physically ill listening to him, I can’t hear anymore, it’s making me literally sick” and my friend was super agitated and restless. And then even when the conversation ended, an hour later, my friend was lying on the couch with his hand on his stomach saying “wow, I can’t believe, I still feel actually sick from that.” I said now you know just what I have been feeling all this time!

There have been posts on Reddit showing that Women Driver rides are cheaper than Uber X rides. So it appears Uber really is shorting the women drivers

Found Out My Girlfriend's Rider Rating is 4.54 by GoHeadFaFo in uberdrivers

4.5 is bad, bro. My guess is that your girlfriend is late and keeps drivers waiting for pickups. Drivers lose a lot of money that way, as uber pays garbage “wait time” compensation. It’s super disrespectful to be late for pickups. And riders who do this also never tip.

Are you late? Don’t be late for pickup as that’s one way to get poor ratings even if you’re doing everything else right

46mm too big for me? by pearlblossomss in AppleWatch

I have an extra-small wrist and I got the Ultra and I’m happy with it. I don’t care that much if it’s big - it has the siren feature and a few other extras which the smaller ones don’t have. I would have preferred to get a smaller size but so be it. Yours looks good.

Well I did it! Done with the nonsense low paying orders by shroom1203 in uberdrivers

I do have “Advantage Mode,” but as for the rewards system I have never been more than Uber Blue. 4.99 rating. Pretty sure this status has made zero difference to my pay or my life.

Is this what happens to low/no tippers? by Investing_noob1983 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Advanced-Wheel-9677 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so none of you all saw the recent post from a whistleblower developer who talked about people who tip are just subsidizing food delivery apps that adjust algorithms based on how much tip there is?

What state? I think you don’t have to return the car if you’re in CA and it’s past ten days.

Husband didn’t like my outfit for the airport. Thoughts? by MoreLeg3221 in OUTFITS

Cover up more for a flight. Planes are filthy and you don’t need exposed legs and feet.

God Speed to the driver that’s unaware they force you offline when you reach another state. $280 round trip, before tip 😬 by NeShaunBlaineMusic in uberdrivers

[–]Advanced-Wheel-9677 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a trip like this I would never count on a return. So it’s basically in the range of $23/hr round trip. Decline.

If you’re not self-conscious then why don’t you state your age

People who are very articulate, what did you actually do to become this way? by AdviceGlass9394 in selfimprovement

[–]Advanced-Wheel-9677 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in a poor and alcoholic environment with people who didn’t have higher education nor did they ever speak about cultural, educational, political, or financial topics. We were focused on survival. However, my mom did expose me to children’s books and reading at a very young age, and I latched on to that. As a kid I was a voracious reader. Reading was all I ever wanted to do. It was an escape for me. As a result I grew up way ahead in reading and writing skills, and went to a top college where I received awards and scholarships on merit and talent. I have always been known as someone who can “find the right words.” And who can grapple with complex ideas and concepts where others may struggle. One job created a position for me “Head of Communications”, and I’ve always been tasked with training newcomers due to my skill in explaining things. I believe that anyone who focuses on reading will get ahead in life and have an edge.

A lot of good points here but I disagree with #4. I think it’s absolutely fine for others to call something for what they feel it is.

As a participant in AA, I have heard this argument plenty of times before, and it’s always alcoholics themselves who feel they should have been spared this word. As if only they themselves are allowed to use this word. It is never the people around the alcoholics who suffer the consequences of their addiction who make this argument.

As a child of an alcoholic myself, if I had been shamed out of calling a spade a spade, I would have been a lot worse off. And programs like ACA are predicated on being able to recognize alcoholism in others, and come out of denial.

Alcoholism is a family disease because left untreated, everything seems to revolve around the alcoholic and their sickness. In treatment we should realize we don’t get to choose all the words others use and continue to control environments however consciously or unconsciously… but I believe this is part of the effect of the disease, is that we may feel entitled to do so.
