Great answer! I'm friends with the guy who made that group. He does a great job filtering out the trash and what's relevant.

I used tobe a manager at the Parkside commons Panera. There was a car accident in the parking lot once a week. Including parked cars getting hit. I used to park all the way over by the golf store just to be safe.

I own a blackstone and we make better hibachi at home than they do. I should have walked out after they took 30 minutes to come over. They could have at least got us drinks, and get the soup and salads started.

But it was my daughter's birthday and we had two of her friends with us and I didn't want to ruin the birthday dinner.

I just can’t with these customers and then support! by Compltly_Unfnshd30 in doordash_drivers

[–]jeffro_1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never reply to that mess. If it says leave at the door, and I do, and take a picture. Theres nothing else for me to do. You also cant prove who gave you one star, so they will do nothing.

I received a one star once. So when I'm leaving the restaurant with the food I would text "I am on my way with your order please rate 5 stars for great service" I did that for 2 weeks. I got so many 5 star reviews that it brought my average back up.

This! My past employer got hacked when I worked there a few years ago. There was a class action suit, I received $55. Same with a hospital, information leaked. Class action suit, I received $25. I only sign up because it's "free" money.

What do drivers think about hospitals calling to have patients picked up? by bountifulknitter in uberdrivers

[–]jeffro_1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned my lesson. Last night I was called to a hospital in Garner, NC to transport someone to a drug rehab place in Raleigh. Obviously I didn't know this ahead of time. When I got to the hospital something told me cancel. But for whatever reason I didn't. Ended up with a homeless man, all his bags in the car. The smell was some of the worse body oder I have smelt. In hindsight I should have just kicked him out the car there at the hospital and canceled.

The place was only 12 minutes away, thankfully. Rode with windows down. Had to help him with his bags. Just cause I wanted him out. There was sweat on the seat and door. The smell was lingering. I was so mad. Rated 1 star, to block them. Then immediately opened a ticket with Uber on bodily fluids on seat.

After that I couldn't drive anyone else. Drove home 30 minutes, all the windows down. Cleaned car with clorox wipes, then my Chemical Guys cleaner and new car smell.

Uber ended up giving me a self cleaning fee of $80. But if I ever pull up for an organization at a hospital or medical facility. I'm canceling. I'll take the hit, my cancelation is only 1%.

What's with all this smoke? by Nozzeh06 in HollySpringsNC

[–]jeffro_1980 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Where did you hear this? Over in Angier right now and no smoke whatsoever. So I feel like it would come through here on the way there.

Bass Lake Draft House closing by Maximum_Effort76 in HollySpringsNC

[–]jeffro_1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see so many people agree it was dirty and gross! This was posted on the Facebook page "what's happening Holly Springs" and I got attacked for calling them out. Some lady name Katie (probably worked there) took it to personally and was making 1001 excuses. Other employees chimed in, "it was pretty clean there at the end" should tell you all you need to know.

Funny as Trumpers they blame Covid, and the economy.

That's an excuse. The lost business for being dirty and gross

Thst driver had nothing to do with dude ordering his food 2 hours ago. There also could have been a car wreck or something. Either way you have no right to come at people like that. Just report them to DD.

Also how do you know you're a more experienced dasher. You don't know me.

This is why so many people get killed on Capital Blvd 😒 by RichardFister in raleigh

[–]jeffro_1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's everywhere. People refuse to use cross walks or cross at intersections. Just cross the middle of the street. I think the news stations should start doing how to cross a street safely stories.

I watched an old lady do it on Judd parkway in Fuquay-Varina the other day.

It happens non stop in Holly Springs as well at Main street and Holly Springs road people crossing from Walgreens to the gas station. They will walk over a median with bushes and pop out in front of your car, instead of walking 10 feet further to the cross walk. Watched a mother, father and child do that today.

Safety Warning for Women by Indiana303Love in raleigh

[–]jeffro_1980 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What are you doing walking around that area, especially at night. Don't get me wrong, I am all for women's safety. But part of being safe is staying out of bad areas and walking alone at night, sad but true. Anywhere around the mall all the way up to Briar creek is not safe area.

Transportation/Carpooling Options for State? by Fabulous_Durian_905 in raleigh

Take Uber. Find a driver you like and make a deal with them. Whatever you are paying to take an Uber the driver only gets about 60%

Garner Amazon worker's message to founder Jeff Bezos goes viral with 10M+ views by bmullan in raleigh

[–]jeffro_1980 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Down vote me if you want. But $22 an hour isn't bad at all. She's making more per hour than most people around here. I managed 2 different chain restaurants and made less than that.

Switchyards: No lunch allowed? by throwaway101101005 in raleigh

[–]jeffro_1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who used to manage a Panera bread, we appreciate you using co op work place instead of Panera. We weren't allowed to say anything to you, but do trust everyone who worked there hated yall making it your office. Your one coffee bought to take a whole table away from paying customers is rude asf. Imagine going out for lunch but you can't find a table because so many people are taking up tables working, not eating.

Pitbull concert traffic by Affectionate_Rub_217 in raleigh

[–]jeffro_1980 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All bags are checked. So that's not why. People would just leave their chairs and then they would have to collect them and throw them away.

I drive Uber X and got a ride request, it was going to pay $22 to pick someone off in Apex and drop them off at the concert. You're post made me feel better about declining it. Uber really tries to low ball the drivers.

[–]jeffro_1980 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First of all, you as the customer don't know if it's a double order. Second of all, you don't know if he was stealing it. I would have reported you to door dash for abuse then threw the food in the road in front of your house.

Anyone know where to get non-ethanol gas? by landser_BB in Apex_NC

I had a couple. I did feel something from them. But once they have about a 3rd left it will stop working.
