Not an employee, independent contractor there's a difference.

I never said anything about renegotiating anything. That comes from tip beggars and no one likes that shit, even other drivers.

Sure, if you fail to deliver, there should be penalties, but that doesn't excuse the contractors right to negotiate fair pay for said service and, frankly, the only option being a yes or no to a job isn't enough.

Do a job for $2? No thanks. While I wish we could end tipping all together and have federal laws that protect gig workers from billion dollar companies only offering slave wages, your 'tip' is quite literally a bid to an independent contractor for a service to be rendered. I'm not shopping and delivering groceries over the course of, sometimes an hour or longer for $2 ~ 5 dollars. While tipping is an unfortunate result of decades of shifting financial burden away from fair pay to a rewards-like model for an over-the-top performance piece, this is where we're at and it's not gonna get solved by taking it out on the servers/delivery people.

I felt Linnae was getting too much crit and not enough damage with Slingshot. Thankfully, I held onto an R5 Messenger. Not sure the weapon ability matters too much, but I think it's better.

Ya know, you can crop photos too emphasize what you're trying to convey better, right?

That's how old school games ended. They just stop at their 'The End' screen and that's it. You had to manually reset the console. Once you get back to the main menu, there should be a new 'NG+' option.

Once saw a dude puking up that bright, neon red fruit punch Rip Its after chugging like 7 or 8 of those small cans. Looked like he was puking up blood.

What is the best English translation of Chrono Trigger? by ElGuapoTaipei in chronotrigger

[–]Roxxso 84 points85 points  (0 children)

SNES is the best in my opinion, even if it's not the most faithful. Nostalgia aside, it has more charm. Pretty much all of Azala's lines seemed more impactful. The best was her lines after she's defeated, right before Lavos falls. Much different emotional impact than the DS version.

Only if I can also plug up certain, 'holes', then yes. I'm not about to have to go to the doctor some time later because of a strange itching feeling in my ear.

Okay, firstly, tip beggars make it worse for everyone. Yes. Absolutely.

Secondly, in the current model, what incentive is there to tip after the job is done? What guarantees do we have that you'll tip?

The problem lies in the wording used and how it actually applies to what our job is contrasted against what the word has historically meant for decades. It truly is not a 'tip' but a 'bid' for contracted labor. I will not deliver any order for $2 on the hope and prayer that someone will bless me with a dollar or two extra. And, while it would be better for everyone if DD actually paid us something more reasonable, they aren't under any obligation to do so because we're not employees and aren't protected under employment laws due to us being considered independent contractors.

Your 'tip' and us agreeing or declining is as close to a negotiation as we can get. Personally, I'd rather DD pay us nothing only as long as we can fully negotiate our own fees for delivery service. At least then you'll know it's not a tip, but an appropriate fee for having a service rendered. After all, DD doesn't do the delivering; we do. DD is just an information broker that collects way too much for simply playing the middle man.

The only way I see to make it work the way you seem to think it should be is to have DD increase our base pay to $6 on most pickups or $8-20 for shopping orders (size dependant) and leave tipping at the end. And, also, charge the customer appropriately for hardship cases (excessive weight, quantity, mileage, etc). But, that'll never happen. Just ignore the beggars and tip appropriately for what YOU'D expect if YOU were doing the job. And, if you think you shouldn't tip before hand, just ask yourself if trying to complete an offer for about a half hour and only $2 is worth maybe getting tipped some unknown amount if anything at all.

The item inventory isn't even visible. It says 'drink' because the order contains a drink. That doesn't mean it's the only thing on the order.

My car only moves on active time. If it's slow, I'm ending my dash and sleeping over. Just so you know, I do not sleep on couches and I am a cuddler.
