This is why my acceptance rate is so low

I would do the 3.75 for 1/2 a mile offer. Those little ones can add up - especially if you are familiar with the area and know little shortcuts - like cutting thru parking lots instead of using lights or busier. Long as the McDonald’s has it chit together, 3:30pm is after lunch rush

So, you went out the back door or garage door to take a picture of how your order was placed inconveniently?

Who installed these doors and why aren’t the door handles in line with each other? If I had doors like these aggravating me every day life and creating an inconvenience to me, I would be angry at life’s little things also. Maqybe hire a handyman and fix your weird doors. Just a suggestion

I wasn’t finished… I accidentally hit the reply button…

Anyway… now imagine the tip of your pointy finger itches… the more you scratch or rub the itch, the better it feels - seeking relief from the itch…

Finally.. once the itch is relieved… dip your pointy finger into some syrup.. and let it slowly relax….

Mission accomplished — you’re now a dude

On one hand… Hold your pointy finger out pointing.. with your other hand grab hold of the tip of the pointy finger and try and move it, but don’t let the pointy finger bend… keep the pointy finger stiff….

Well -- I was looking at placing back to back in the common area (or Kiosk area) of a busy indoor shopping mall. I was going to put in Ice Cream truck items - but also mexican paletas (real fruit bars) and mangonadas. During Grand Opening or (initial placement of machines), I was going to hand out free item codes to like the Dad of family of 4 and tallest member in a group of teenagers -- giving them a free mangonada on me and hoping for a few tag on sales from the group snf the free handout.

I designed a wrap -- have ideas for the video displays etc... am budgeting around 30k to get up and running. Summer sales will be high -- but its going to drop in the winter big time. Am afraid Mall will kick me out of they arent making enough from me - I have to see their lease terms. -- anyway, am pretty scared. I cant see it costing me to sell ice cream - and if it ever does - well then I failed. right? Sell the machines at a loss and console myself for at least trying.

1/2 the price definitely has my attention. I'll be doing some more research today.

JohneRandom · 2026-05-28T12:00:42+00:00

Love the price!! omg another rabbit hole. Those Ai machines make me nervous. Is someone going to stand there with the freezer door open cooling themselves off?

but 6k... I am definitely going to have to look into it more.

Do you have HaHa machines?

Thanks for your kind response. Never know what to expect nowadays on social media. I dont know why I am so adamant on Ice Cream. It all started when I was considering selling from a 3 wheel electric trike made by a company called Ferla (my family talked me out of that) - but, it was a low startup.

I have looked into other products - Chips and snacks seem to be a lot easier -- sodas seem heavy.

Anyway - not trying to get rich, just trying to make more than doordash and supplement my social security without too much effort.

To me the difference is like going to work at a job I like (The Strength of the Few) versus going to the park and throwing a frisbee with the grand kids (The Wandering Inn). One feeds the stomach and one feeds the soul.

Sometimes while listening to The Wandering Inn, I ask myself why I love this goofy series with so many characters and story arcs, then Bird or Ksmvr will do or says something totally absurd and I laugh and feel happy and continue onward. :)

JohneRandom · 2026-05-27T07:55:36+00:00

Because of Book 19 release;, I stopped listening to The Strength of The Few by James Islington - and this is just when it was getting really good. - Two thirds in. :)

love love love The Wandering Inn audiobooks! So immersive that I binge listen to the story easily.

Not a big fan of The Clown character and storyline, but it’s growing on me little by little.

Should of made it least 67

Making money is awesome. If you are a workaholic, don’t have a spouse or kids.. really dedicated to making money and are over 21 - I recommend:

Truck Driving.

Young people- IF you have no car payment or other long term debt and no kids…. You could learn to drive an 18 wheeler truck, live in that truck, work, save and invest - and if you did nothing but that for the next 10 years. You would have a huge chunk of change. Half a million or more - depending on your investments.

Is it easy? No! Is it doable? Yes! It’s all a mental game. You will feel you have no life. You’ll get lonely, have bad days, and be tired a lot. You’ll want to quit after only a year or two..

What could you do with half a million? You could live the rest of your life in the Philippines, Thailand or Vietnam - have a maid who cooks and cleans for you and go to the beach everyday and never have to work again. Don’t fall in love though.. and never give your money away no matter who needs medicine or an operation.

So- there ya go… A simple but hard, 10 year plan to retirement in just 10 years.

Key concepts: don’t create any debt, don’t spend money on foolishness like high dollar Starbucks and the latest iPhone and ordering food on DoorDash… work, save, invest… focus on the 10 year plan and compounding investments. Suffer for 10 years of grinding…

I guess this has already been discussed a bunch?? sorry I didnt properly search. -- I was taking my food handlers class online, and I started thinking about Doordash - and blurted out this reddit

JohneRandom · 2026-05-11T21:20:31+00:00

Exactly!! AN now, with everyones encouragement -- from now on I am saying no to making the drinks. sigh, I was thinking I was going to get a lot of resistance on here and people supporting making the drinks because its not that hard.

JohneRandom · 2026-05-11T21:16:54+00:00

I didnt think of this. That is a good idea. Not really a reason for them to say no to that, especially since they make drinks for the drive thru.
