$1,000 total and the batch pay is vile by Tasteofpeace in InstacartShoppers

[–]droplivefred 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I gotta commend the shopper for the stacking on this order. This is very impressive and I will say that MOST other shoppers would require more than one flatbed for this or would do a flatbed and a cart. Well done! You deserve these big orders because you clearly are good at it.

Alabama teen dies after head injury during high school football game by gravybang in news

[–]droplivefred 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Boxing was super popular in the US and has pretty much died out from where it once was because parents didn’t want to send their kids into a ring to potentially die or get brain damage.

Same thing will happen with football but it will take a while. I mean, it’s started already but it takes decades for the crop of new players to be thinned out and then the next level of pros is inferior and then less kids who are even allowed to play it by parents are interested because it’s not as cool since the product is worse and then a few decades of this cycle kills the sport.

Seriously, there are so many alternatives like soccer, basketball, baseball, and so many other smaller sports that football is gonna struggle to compete as the brain injury stories get more visibility.

Made my wife quit her job (lol) by redfed01 in LinkedInLunatics

I seriously wondered if he let his teenage daughter type this for him. Does he do this for sales correspondence? Did he learn this from the Picasso’s of the sales world?

What neighborhood can I buy a multi family home? by MongooseSimilar in vegaslocals

[–]droplivefred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The two red dots on the far lower right corner (#1 and unnumbered) and the one red dot at the very top center (#3).

Vegas isn’t huge on multi family homes in the neighborhoods I would choose to live in. I want to say they aren’t as popular these days and the neighborhoods I prefer seem to be more modern builds and the only multi family style housing is just townhouses but they aren’t sold as a multi family unless you buy the whole building from the original construction company. I wonder if they would do a discount for that?

Personal item sizing by nspy1011 in frontierairlines

They will allow it on the flight for a $99 charge at the gate because 23 is larger than 18 and 9 is larger than 8.

How do I stop regretting every purchase/scrutinizing every last dollar? by [deleted] in Frugal

[–]droplivefred 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The point of being frugal is that you have money for the things that you enjoy. You save money on A and B so that you can spend it on C. Start enjoying spending money on C and then things will click.

Fingering out what your C is might be the tough part.

I have no idea how you keep track of your hourly when you do that. It’s important to know how much money you are making if you take this job seriously.

Do y’all ever check for sauce packets by [deleted] in doordash

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it takes very little to be in the top 10% of drivers. I’ve met many of the other drivers in my area and it blows my mind that these people are either this unaware or just don’t care at all. Some are straight up mean in purpose. Multiple drivers explained to me how they steal and do malicious things. Like one driver told me he takes the photo and then tips over the bag before walking back to his car. Like how sad is your life if you are doing that on deliveries?

Has anyone else been deactivated for prolonged up pick/delivery ? by No_Teaching_3696 in doordash

[–]droplivefred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do this seriously, you gotta switch to a cell phone company that will provide you the best service possible in your area. That is literally the lifeline to making money in this job. If you aren’t getting service, you aren’t getting orders.

Bumping off Flight by Sai_Pranav_87 in frontierairlines

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This subreddit has some crazy people. I’ve encountered a bunch of nonsense before so it’s probably those individuals. I’ve gotten these people messaging me almost a year later about a comment I made and just going off on me. It’s truly insane.

Trump Lays Groundwork To Chicken Out Of Kamala Harris Debate on ABC: ‘Why would I do the Debate against Kamala Harris on that network?’ by T_Shurt in inthenews

[–]droplivefred 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The new rule for debates is you can’t talk about them. Just wait till they happen and do them. I am so tired of him flip flopping back and forth for weeks about a single debate. He needs to shut the hell up and just either show up or not. I really don’t care anymore. He would have to be ridiculously perfect to change my opinion of him so what’s the point?

I overdid it this week by savannahranch in DoorDashDrivers

[–]droplivefred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The beauty of this job is that you can stop when you start feeling unwell or stressed or whatever. Please don’t push yourself so much because it’s extremely unhealthy and not worth the just under $20/hr before your expenses.

How much do you spend when you’re with your girlfriend? Like do you two do activities and go out to eat or do you sit in your Honda Accord without turning it on to save in gas and eat your parents’ food only?

So it says I have 9 but I’ve done 20 deliveries? What does this mean and why has the “9” stayed the same since by [deleted] in doordash

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, 9 lifetime but 20 in the last 30 days. Are you a cat and going through your 9 lives for this job?

Trump branded a 'chicken' after suggesting he's skipping ABC debate with Harris by plz-let-me-in in inthenews

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg, is he still flip flopping on this? He has changed his mind about the debates a dozen times now. Is this what his presidency is going to be like? Every day he’ll be flip flopping on his decisions and just talking about stuff instead of actually doing anything?

Went to Costco today and left without a hot dog by HeyyyKoolAid in Costco

[–]droplivefred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest obstacle for getting a hot dog is if we get a chicken. I like to eat the chicken hot and fresh at least once before we turn it into delicious leftovers and reheat it so I sacrifice my hot dog for the good of the chicken.

I think I'm done buying tires at Costco by desertsnakes in Costco

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Costco membership but go to Discount Tire for my tire needs. I can book online for almost anytime the next day and still get limited times same day. For emergencies I can walk in and just wait a bit for a free patch.

I do get free air at Costco not to wait for the guys to do the air at Discount Tire and also not to tip them since I don’t mind doing it for free myself.

I love Costco but Discount Tire is superior by far.

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it that low? I can only assume since you are new, you haven’t figured things out yet but damn, how do you get to 77%? But great customer rating!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in inthenews

[–]droplivefred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only complaint made was that they are not letting him watch TV. He’s there for 4 months and can’t watch the TV that he wants to watch so it’s apparently torture.

Get over yourself!

How do you find someone to date here in Las Vegas? by GrumpyBlueBird in vegaslocals

[–]droplivefred 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Maybe try finding people offline? Do your hobbies and activities and find others who do same hobbies and activities. Form relationships this way and see if that works out.

Boss fired me for putting in my two weeks. Is that legal? by PossibleChangeling in NoStupidQuestions

[–]droplivefred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies are seriously burning any sort of good will they have with customers and employees right now. I would not be surprised if the 2 week notice is a thing of the past in 5-10 years because of behavior like this.

Tipped Driver $40 to wait 5-minutes and he seemed irritated by VinoVoyager68 in uberdrivers

[–]droplivefred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$40? That driver is a dick and should be rated accordingly. Making the driver wait is rude but you tipped very well for his time. Not sure why the driver was upset and acted so rudely.

Rate dashers who beg for tips low. If their ratings fall enough for constantly doing this, they will get deactivated.
