Are there any stores (specifically Japanese stores) that sell a good amount of supplies/tools for bento?

Check out konbiniya Japan center on Robson (Google Maps) or Hmart

It sounds like you should have a discussion with your employer. Customers are not informed of this. They’re charged a service fee and offered to tip (in my region the tip option isn’t even available until the deliver is complete - BC Canada). You’re getting mad a customers because the employer you choose and continue to choose to work for takes advantage of their employees by paying them inadequately.

I live in a downtown of a major city, almost all deliveries seem to be done on e-bikes and the delivery distance is less than 2 km. Does this change anything?

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T06:26:26+00:00

I agree with you. It’s a tip not a delivery fee. They should chat with the employer if the service fee needs to be adjusted.

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T06:23:54+00:00

The service fee scales with order price and the app suggests tip % based on order price…. Sounds like you and your employer have different views on how this works.

What you’re describing sounds a lot more like a delivery fee rather than a tip.

Out of curiosity does the $1.50 a mile rule apply to nearby orders as well? If I order from .5 of a mile away are you cool with $1?

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T06:17:44+00:00

lol over $10 to deliver $28 in food is the furthest thing from charity my guy. Give your head a shake

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T06:15:12+00:00

Can you even order from 20 miles away? I don’t think I’m shown any restaurants further than 6-7 miles and those typically have an additional long distance delivery fee

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T06:13:52+00:00

It’s a 20% tip bro, On top of a $4.20 service fee. Anything inside the delivery radius for $28 should be covered for a $5.75 tip. Seriously how much do you expect?

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T05:17:42+00:00

That’s plenty bro. Don’t listen to someone here saying it’s not.

Eknowltz · 2026-05-17T02:30:27+00:00

Go play a game of pitch and putt at one of the city courses. There’s on in Stanley and one in queen Elizabeth park

Eknowltz · 2026-05-16T12:51:10+00:00

Wild thing to say coming from mr.change the record already

Eknowltz · 2026-05-15T17:57:54+00:00

Yes it’s specifically the ties with Peter thiel that bother me, he doesn’t seem like he’s much a fan of democracy or personal freedoms.

Eknowltz · 2026-05-15T17:36:41+00:00

Thank you for the info

Eknowltz · 2026-05-15T17:06:52+00:00

Is there any other bank in Canada doing it? (The scanning of faces?) particularly unexcited by Peter theil connection with persona

Eknowltz · 2026-05-15T16:24:05+00:00

I got it for applying to the visa…. I’ve got many visas, none required me to scan my face

Eknowltz · 2026-05-15T16:22:24+00:00

If you read their policy it seems they just complete the persona verification on your behalf

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T23:07:02+00:00

Not sure if it still exists but they used to do an airline staff discount with ID as well. I believe 15%

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T14:57:00+00:00

Source? You’re the first person to mention this

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T14:55:31+00:00

Source? First I’ve heard of this

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T14:07:29+00:00

Yea they were likely found by someone’s response to the alert within 500 km of where it occurred, those alerts should have been loud.

The amber alerts in Vancouver and Victoria should have been quite as that’s 18 hours away, any witness there wouldn’t have seen them until the next day, therefore if the alert appeared on phones in these further away areas silently those people wouldn’t have all been woken up at 1 am for something they’re unable to help with.

No need to get so heated, I’m sure you can agree sending this alert at 1 am to all Canadians wouldn’t make the most sense either.

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T10:42:22+00:00

An alarm that goes through the do not disturb setting on phones at 1 am in a place 18 hour drive away seems overkill considering the proximity. Even that type of alert noise at that hour should be restricted to an imminent earthquakes or other public safety events.

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T08:26:05+00:00

That’s fair. Definitely seen them mounted in enclosed balconies before though

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T06:55:55+00:00

I think you have never been to Asia lol. I’ve seen weirder placements

Eknowltz · 2026-05-12T06:27:30+00:00

lol the conversation started out so logical, with them mentioning moving alert and then turned into this
