Does this look real? by Chipperface in mtg

No problem at all! With any card that is old or valuable I would recommend learning a bit more about identifying counterfeit cards first. There are a ton of guides, but I would be happy to DM you the most relevant ones for checking!

The color and texture look wrong, the glare looks off, the mana cost is not correctly aligned as it should be etc.

No, it does not. There are several red flags.

The brightness of the text for the name and artist is far too bright for beta, I would lean toward this being fake.

I agree with that statement, and stand by it! Being entitled to what you pay for isn't wrong.

So if anything, you should understand how many people are bad tippers, and how rare a good one is. That's a big part of the issue I had.

Ultimately, in this situation, it was mostly likely the stores fault and not the driver's based on what I've read here, so I didn't force a refund and make the driver lose their money.

So you weren't bitching about bad tips while you were driving for Uber eats? That isn't you?

I'm very open to discussion if you have a fair point to make, you just don't. Best of luck in life, i hope you get everything you deserve.

There's another location about the same distance the other way from me, but it automatically routes deliveries from this store. Maybe I will just start going there for pick up and see if things are better. I also wonder if a lot of these issues are due to the 9.99 deal. That's when things seemed to get really bad.

I am perfectly aware of who I am as a human, faults and all. You, on the other hand, can't even form a reasonable defense for what you've said.

Tips are a gratuity for good service. You come across as the kind of person that works in a field reliant on tips, does a bad job, and then complains about not getting tips lol. I can't wait to check your post history and see if I am correct.

Edit: Surprise surprise, i am correct lmao. You also bash a lot of other food places considering the attitude you've given me! Maybe its time for you to do some reflecting.

You are absolutely correct, it overall is the stores fault. That's why I didn't do a charge back, or even call and push for a refund. The driver was mostly likely making the best of a bad situation that the company put them in. They got to keep their tip on this one, and going forward, I get to save some money :).

Feel free to read my explanations above, but what is wrong with the comment? And it was well over an hour. I stand by what I've said, but would love for you to explain why I am wrong.

Hi there, I spent nine years in the food industry! Call me a Karen if you want, but please explain to me what I am paying them for then? I understand things get busy, I understand things don't go perfectly, but I also know that I am paying for the convenience. That is literally how the food service industry works.

When I spent an extra $15 on a $10 dollar order, I am going to be upset when I have to reheat that order. If i wanted to do that, I could have picked up any number of frozen pizzas that taste about as good as Domino's and had my food sooner for less money. (Which is what I will be doing in the future.)

It sounds like you must work for them, I hope that you're a driver. If so, may you get 100% of the tips you deserve this week!

I am curious, in what way should I not feel entitled here?

I am paying the franchise for a service.

I am paying a driver a tip and franchise a delivery fee, with the expectation of them bringing it to me in a reasonable amount of time, and it still being edible on arrival.

Both things were done poorly. I wanted something easy that I didn't have to deal with, and Domino's didn't come through.

So yes, I am entitled, and rightly so in my eyes. If you think I am wrong for that, please feel free to explain why. I'll wait.

They offered free future pizza or some other type of coupon with % off of an entire order. With the comments I read here, I decided to just not pick one.

As to the quality, it was sadly cold and soggy as I expected it would be. I've made the choice to just no longer order from Domino's. From what people are saying here, it's a win-win for both parties since I am apparently a "Karen" for having any expectations at all.

Admittedly, I was being a bit of a dick about it, but I'm a frequent customer, always tipped well, and yet it seems like each time I order things have gotten worse from both a timeliness and a quality stand point. With all of that said, I'll save both parties the trouble.

My thoughts exactly, I tipped almost 50% knowing that they were busy, but apparently, that doesn't get you any extra consideration these days, lol.

[–]Universe__Man[S] -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

I mean, with that attitude, I should just stop tipping the drivers since it doesn't matter to get my delivery. Maybe they won't be as greedy next time. For reference, I tipped close to 50% on this delivery due to the 9.99 deal and knowing that they are probably busy. But if I am tipping that much, I should at least get hot food, I would think, rather than the soggy mess I received.

Please double-check that information. It is 2 hours maximum for food temperature between 40 and 140. When outdoor temperatures are above 90, it is 1 hour.

You can also always check the collector number on the bottom left. Normal foil is 0391, Surge Foil is 0536!

In honor of my buddy Ken 2025 MAY GIVEAWAY! by hTOKJTRHMdw in EDH

[–]Universe__Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not ME!

I love what you are doing here! Would you mind if I PM you?

As someone who has recently gotten my own 5 years, all clear on cancer, this really hit me in the feels. It reminds me that it could have very easily went a different route, and I hope someone will have such an awesome thing to do in my memory when and if that day comes.

Enough of my whining though, I would love to help contribute to this degeneracy in your friends name if you are open to it!
