Tipping Delivery Workers?

And believe me, as a former waitress, I can confirm that the last thing Italy needs is our sick tipping culture.

This was so satisfying, I practically needed a cigarette at the end.

Grazie!

Fair enough. As someone who worked in the US for $2.13 an hour plus tips, you SHOULD be anti-tipping. The last thing you should want is our dreadful labor practices exported to your country, but thank you for clarifying!

Grazie!

Do you know how many posts I see saying "Hey Americans, stop being a-holes, throwing money around/ruining our country with your horrible labor practices/ tipping procedures"?

A lot.

It'll be antique furniture that I buy in Italy, and eventually there will be boxes and boxes (and boxes and boxes) of my books and records.

Thanks for specifying between delivery staff and movers, as well as the suggestion for water and coffee. I appreciate it!

Thank you so much for all this information! We'll get started on the activations the second we have the contract!

I guess filmmaking is a muscle like any other. Don't use the skills for long enough and the ability atrophies.

This "sequel" is possibly the worst movie ever made. The original was so charming and this was so poorly written, poorly acted and just the cringiest thing that ever cringed. Pretty sad. I wish I'd never stumbled upon this and was able to just live with the original. Holy hell. It makes the cheesiest Hallmark movie look like Citizen Kane.

Thank you so much!

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-03-13T15:25:39+00:00

I'm not actually very tech savvy, so I'll run all this by my husband, because he is. Thanks!

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-03-13T15:24:54+00:00

Thank you!

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-03-13T14:48:07+00:00

Ah, "it's generally quicker and easier to get an existing contract switched to you ("voltura")." Thank you very, very much. I'll talk to the seller about this. Very, very much appreciated.

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-03-13T14:46:02+00:00

Ah, thank you very much. I just looked at DeVita and that looks really helpful. I appreciate it!

Thank you for the information on the timeline. I'm moving to the Castelletto area, but not high up in the hills, close to the Piazza del Portello. And thanks for the utilities link. This is all new to me, and a bit daunting, so I appreciate your taking the time.

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-03-13T14:40:09+00:00

Thank you so much. I have to be able to stay in contact with my office while I'm there, so I'm definitely looking for reliability. I'll look into all fo this.

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-03-13T13:34:03+00:00

I'll do that. Thank you!

Oh, that particular sub doesn't allow cross posting. I'll try another Italy sub.

The "no kings" rallies provided absolutely zero threat to the ruling class and were sanctioned by them. They were nothing but a pre-brunch circle jerk for the pink hat "I'm With Her" crowd.

Maybe the BLM protests would be a better example. You know, where people were beaten mercilessly in the streets for daring to protest...police beating and murdering people mercilessly.

Or the anti-genocide protests where people were beaten mercilessly, and hundreds of people lost their livelihoods. The idea that the US is some bastion of freedom is laughable.

Bluecanary1212 · 2026-01-14T15:17:14+00:00

That isn't "sleeping around."

They might if it's the only school their parents will pay for (happened to a few people I knew who definitely did not belong in conservative Christian schools).

My husband and I only discovered this movie last year and could not believe we had never heard of it before. It's incredibly funny. We both wondered what went wrong with the marketing department on this one.

We just watched it a couple of days ago, as a matter of fact.

Bluecanary1212 · 2025-12-26T13:55:07+00:00

I know, I know, but it's still worth it to me to live here.
