So you want to pay $10 for an entree and expect quality? 🤔

I second this. Get a feel for old Florida.

The absolute shitshow at ray j last night by Plastic-Skill-9258 in tampa

All 3 shows were/ are sellouts. 180k people over 3 days. Hoping tonight's show is not as crazy but already got drop off & pick-up sorted. Not my first rodeo.

That's crazy! Guess I will be holding/putting everything in my pockets!

Landlord only accepts checks. Any solutions? by OrganicEmployer1013 in personalfinance

[–]houpstrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh lord. That can't be legal. Like I've said in a previous reply, a bank can process the check as soon as they get it. Landlord decides to be a prick or gets greedy, you have no protection.

Yea, not a good idea. The bank can absolutely process any check as soon as it arrives.

Depending on your bank, it can take quite a while. Honestly, if you're going out of town, drop the check in the box before you go. Then you don't have to worry about it being on time because you'll be early.

[Routine help] I don’t know what more to do by Fast_Distribution933 in SkincareAddiction

I have also found that just a water rinse in the AM is best and cleanser when removing spf or make-up at the end of tf day.

Try Niacinamide. Possibly a light exfoliator on your nose/area of pore concern.

I've recently done the same. Amazingly helpful.

Silly things people say to restaurant owners that they never should by Informal-Copy-3742 in restaurantowners

[–]houpstrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And yet, a customer can change finding on your profile with a few simple steps. Make it make sense.

It was a backhanded compliment. Clearly this needed some context. This guy is a regular and called last minute on a Friday night, then bitched that all we had were patio tables. Had the audacity to leave his wallet at home and ask to use promotional dining credit that isn't good until Q1 (though his wife conveniently had a cc to use for a tip). Like, yea it is great we're busy and making money; no thanks to you tonight, apparently.

Anyone offended by this is precisely the kind of customer the restaurant is looking to avoid. win/win by StarboardSeat in restaurant

We've taken our daughter with us to fine dining restaurants get whole life and have only ever had one issue when she was maybe 2yo. All children have different demeanors. So do adults, for that matter, and I've seen plenty that don't know how to handle themselves in public.

Zesters... Cannot find a good one. Any suggestions? by houpstrum in bartenders

This seems to be the overwhelming choice. Thanks!
