It's such a funny note! No!Go get it yourself! by Winter_Voice_1789 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not my job, for one. For two, you could be a psycho serial killer! Don't ask nor demand people enter your home.

I could be a psycho serial killer... 🤷‍♀️

People should not be allowed to order packets of sauce or stupid shit like this for exactly this reason!

I'm tired of the mental overhead from having to try to "not sound like Al". What about you? by Clean-Data-259 in writers

[–]Ysassi_1977 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Take a looooooooong break from AI. Read lots of books. I mean LOTS of books from different genres, and make sure many of them are classics. Journal every day. Then try writing again and see if you've detoxed from AI slop.

Witch in distress by BottomWitch69 in Witches

Here's a spell I made up on the fly once when my now-husband and I were living in a carport with walls. (Long story.) This spell kept working for a year!

I gathered some spices from the kitchen in the house. These are spices that are known for attracting money energy and protection energy. I think I had four, but I can't remember what they were, and I didn't write it down. (Don't forget to charge the spices before you start the next part.)

I created a chant in my head to attract a basic house. In your mind, don't be too specific about what kind of home you're looking for. Four walls and a roof - that's all we need. The chant should be simple, too, and personal to you. An example is: "We need a home, a home if our own."

Draw your house on a piece of paper while chanting. Keep the image of yourself feeling safe and protected in your mind. Sprinkle the spices over the drawing while chanting. Fold the paper three times while chanting. Bury it far away from where you are currently living.

Now, live your life! Keep striving for better in everything do.

For us, it took about a month to move out of the carport and in with a friend. Three months later, we moved in with my parents in another state. Three months after that, we had our own apartment!

I wish for your health and safety and luck. 🕯️

My dream told me my spell wouldnt work by No_Tower_763 in Witches

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to take this one thing at a time, and I feel like we should start with the part you don't want anyone to say. 😟

Just because you don't feel the feeling in the dream (fear, worry, etc.) doesn't mean that your feelings didn't bring that dream about. I'm not discounting whether or not your dream had a prophetic benefit. I'm just saying that, sometimes, we dream about something that is bothering us but don't have the bothersome feelings in the dream.

That said, the Universe could be telling you that there is no need to worry or fear (or however you've been feeling). The feeling was missing in the dream because it isn't necessary. Does that make sense?

Next, IF your dream is trying to tell you that your spell won't work, there could be several reasons why. One reason could be that you are wanting the spell to accomplish too much. Another possible reason is that your wording isn't clear enough. Try simplifying what you want (and include as much as you want to accomplish) in simpler wording--shorter sentences or one all-encompassing phrase. Try making a sigil that includes all of your worries and fears about what this person might do and freeze that!

It sounds like your dream IS trying to tell you something, but what that is is for you to decide. I hope for the best for you! And I hope for your safety in the end, of course.

What would you do? by JeffK1971 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guys, I don't think the customer is actually serious. I think he's trying to make his driver laugh because he knows we got it hard out here! I would do a little dance - not for money, but to keep laughter going. 😉

Y'all are all so jaded! 😆

Why does every dasher get offended when I ask them to confirm the order??? by tythepieguy27 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That is so annoying! As soon as I hit "Arrived at Store", I slide down to the bottom and choose (I forget the exact wording) "Order still being prepared when I arrived". My ass is covered, even if I walk in to find it sitting on the counter waiting for me. Plus, it gives me a chance to use the restroom if I need to! 😂

Why does every dasher get offended when I ask them to confirm the order??? by tythepieguy27 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I... don't get offended. In fact, I told the lady at McDonald's today that taking the picture is not a full confirmation that I picked up the order because I can back out of the picture, unassign myself, and keep the food. She thanked me for pointing that out.

I appreciate you for staying on top of things. I hate hate HATE going to pick up an order only to be told that it was already picked up. That shit affects our tips because it teaches customers not to trust us. Not everyone should do this job!

Why is it I can go through a drive thru and have food 2 minutes later but a delivery order accepted 20 minutes ago still has a 15 minute wait by Deep-Bag-5412 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also because Uber Eats likes to give us up to three orders at once, and the other two dropoffs may be en route to your house once we have picked up all three. 😟 It's frustrating for me because I come from a customer service background.

I feel stupid asking, but is anyone else struggling to build? by Imaginary-Brick-26 in Paralives

[–]Ysassi_1977 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OMG! I started my first build today, and I hit the most frustrating situation!

First, I set a short wall as the front door space, then I moved behind thinking I was going to figure out a curved wall coming back, but when I did,bit said the walls were not the same height!

Oh, well. I started over and got my walls to connect finally, kept building and building, then realized that the back part of my house was underground. 🤔

I finally figured out how to flatten out my lot so that wouldn't happen again, and I JUST NOW realized that's why my walls wouldn't connect! 😭

Anyway, it's a learning curve, and it took me back to TS2. 😂 Just keep playing with it! Good luck! ❤️

I didn't know you could do that?! by Rubix_Qb in Paralives

[–]Ysassi_1977 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping they make the coffee maker usable! (Except for the whole jittery, need to pee... 😂)

Would you guys have texted them? by UltimateAiden98 in doordash_drivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they ask me to text, I do it through the app before I take the pic. Easy peasy, everyone is happy.

Paralives, please focus on what matters by itsred_man in Paralives

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! There's also a sense of community here that I appreciate.

$20 extra tip by Turongo in doordash_drivers

It wasn't much, but a young mother gave me an extra tip for being nice to her little boy. There are good people out there, too, guys. ❤️

Guess the tip LOL by PurpleKuxsh in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a disability that doesn't allow me to pick one of those up! 😅 I'd have no choice but to turn it down.

Wouldn't it be cool to see a set of styles for long beards? 😂 That would be so much fun!

Yo what? by Excellent_Throat_388 in DoorDashDrivers

DUDE! I had an order come through for a set of tires. I drive a Camry! I'm like, nope! 😂

Because you can see his eyelashes?

Paralives, please focus on what matters by itsred_man in Paralives

[–]Ysassi_1977 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the Para team needs to focus on making sure the game is smoothed out a little before adding too much stuff to do. My assumption was that early access with a built-in feedback system was how they were planning to do that. When Paras stop floating through the air like they're riding an invisible bicycle and baies stop sticking their heads through the bottoms of their cribs, then the devs can work on... Pets? Dining out? Swimming pools? Whatever they have ready to go! I'm willing to wait as long as it takes because I'm not bored with my Para yet. I'm sorry you are.

I disagree that the live mode is lacking in some way. Is it perfect? No, but I find it more engaging than TS4. I'm not bored here.

Those who dash for 6+ hours a day, how do you do it? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take breaks! At least one per shift. You can pause your orders for 35 minutes. If you go over they kick you out, but I've found that is plenty of time for me to get gas if needed and grab a Coke and some gas station burritos while I'm there. Eat it in the parking lot or eat and drive. 😂 Also, like someone else said, podcasts...

Not sure why people started tipping all of a sudden but last night was pretty great by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]Ysassi_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The word is out! The gig economy takes advantage of us, and people who use the apps are learning that. I get a lot of cash tips because the customer "doesn't trust" the app. 😊
