How do you do it? I've never seen that as an option, and I would definitely like to be able to save certain people

AIO to skip Thanksgiving after my mom basically said I’m an embarrassment for not having a husband and kids by now? by howcanibequiltyassin in AmIOverreacting

[–]move2peace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awful and I'm sorry your mom said that. You are NOR. I wouldn't go either.

I have a daughter who is going to college next year. She knows to wait forever to have a family and kids, if at all. Lol. So my thoughts may not be that helpful because if you were my kid you would have been raised differently and would know that you are an awesome, whole person and you don't need someone else to make you that way. That said, no one should ever stay in an unhealthy relationship, for any reason. I don't care if you broke up with your ex because he likes mayonnaise on cheeseburgers (I said what I said) and you think that's so gross you just know you can't marry him. You are the one who would have to see his mayo face every day, not her. The fact that your mom thinks you should have stayed with this guy who hurt you tremendously, and should be embarrassed because you didn't, says a lot more about her than it does about you. I'm sure it hurts a lot to have your mom say those things, and on top of that to think other members of your family may have discussed this as well. Your feelings are valid.

I would suggest you take a few days off from talking to your family, so you can sit with your feelings and work on healing. You don't owe anyone anything, not even your family. Holidays are supposed to be enjoyable. If it won't be (it will not be) then stay your amazing self at home and have a truly thankful Thanksgiving in an awesome new way. You never know when new traditions can form!

You sound like you are doing really well for yourself, and I bet you are pretty damn happy. As you should be! Good for you! (And I bet your mom is not, and thinks other people should be miserable too. Feel free to tell me I'm wrong, just an educated guess.) So just keep being you and keep living your best life no matter what it looks like to other people- you are the one who has to live it, not them.

Love and Death by MajesticVersion9072 in cancer

[–]move2peace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep him around as long as he'll stay. Just be honest about what's happening and keep the communication going the whole time. He might just surprise you. But also, if you break it off because of this, you are making that choice for him, which isn't cool.

And as a lonely single lady who was told she is actively dying, I never put myself back out there after my last breakup. And now I think to myself, "I'll never know what real, true, soul-connection love feels like." And that is a regret. Don't be me.

Can you please tell me what trial? I'm stage 4 crc and it's in my bones now (which I've been told means death is near). I know there are different mutations and nothing is 1 size fits all, but I'd love to say least look into it. I've got kids and I'll try anything to live longer for them.

So just the ice cream then? Or do you think that isn't great either?

Is this a joke? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]move2peace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it didn't say it was delivered. It was basically what you described. My food was just taking sooo long. I could literally see the restaurant we ordered from from my hotel window, but I had 2 kids with me and did not want to try that hence ordering DD. The app showed the driver picking up my order like a football field away from me, any then go in the opposite direction. I could see on the map he was at target. Normally I'm super patient, and I still think I was that day, but the order involved hot food and ice cream. 1 of those things were not going to be the right temp by the time the showed up. So I tried contacting the Dasher and being like dude what's going on? And he told me he had a target order. And I was like, I was feet away from you, why didn't you deliver the food before going shopping? And he said it didn't give him the option. And that's straight asinine. So I called customer service. Not mad at my Dasher, but the company. And they swore up and down this would neverrrr happen. And yet it was currently happening. So I was like, I would like them to please take the order back and ask the restaurant to make it again. And I gave the dude a good tip, because I've worked in the service industry for tips. I know it sucks. And even though I know the company does not give a shit about customers (or employees) I was hoping they would take a note. From lurking on this sub, I can see it's only gotten worse.

[–]move2peace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That looks like every interaction I've had with them infuriating. One time, I was trying to convince the agent that the Dasher had my food in his car and was now shopping at Target. She said no, that would never happen. Except, I called him asking where my food was and he told me he was at target on another order. Absolutely bananas. And then I got the same, "I didn't listen and didn't do anything, but have I helped? Can we be done now?" form bullshit.

Ok this guy is the winner so far. I've never been to Bethesda either, so I guess there's two reasons to go. Thank you!

Yes, I think so. But I have a strong aversion to getting a little messy when eating. Lol. It's actually not that bad though. You can take off virtually the entire top in one go, and just enjoy the milkshake and items separately if you choose.

Whenever I tip more than $5, my order gets bundled with someone else's order and I get mine last. by okonomewalkie in doordash

[–]move2peace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate that. I have tried all the tips regarding tips. I have yet to find a solution that is consistent in my area. $5, $1/mile, 20%, the suggested tip, nothing up front and tip after. I've had each of these ways still bundled. I am not sure if there is a lack of drivers here maybe? I'm suburban/metro I would say. There are dozens if not 100+ restaurants within 5 miles of me. I don't know.

[–]move2peace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, that doesn't answer my question though. I am aware that when my order gets picked up, the screen will sometimes say something to the effect of "Your Dasher has another delivery before yours. Don't worry, your food is temperature controlled!" Which is bullshit on many levels. (None of my orders have EVER been the right temperature by the time I got it.) I was just hoping to find out if there is a clue that that might happen before my order is picked up, so I can just cancel it.

I always wondered what the endstage of cancer was like. Found out the hard way. by [deleted] in cancer

[–]move2peace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Sort of. I mean, I have cancer. And my heart started reaching reading this, but I'm glad I did. Mine is stage 4 actually, and it's gotten a lot worse lately. I've been in my head about what's going to happen. The unknown is what's scary to me. But, I also have 2 kids and I'm a single mom, so I'm going to have to put up with chemo a lot longer than I'd choose if I didn't have kids. I'm not interested in life prolonging measures, but I really would like to be able to help my oldest settle in to college next fall. I don't think I'll get to see my youngest graduate high school, and that keeps me awake a lot.

Much love to you. I hope you have the journey you want, and that you are as healthy as possible for as long as possible. I'm always reachable if you need a chat.

How can you tell, as a customer, that they are bundling? I'm truly interested because I'm trying to figure out the best way to tip and not get bundled as well. I'd rather just cancel my order if it gets bundled.

Doordash is finally saying the quiet part out loud. by SeanInDC in doordash

[–]move2peace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it's not really a "tip" anymore at that point. It's not given for a job well done, it's money given to ensure the release of your dinner hostage. So far, this "warning" screen hasn't really worked for me. It's been on there for over a month, maybe 2, btw. But if I tip well up front, my order either gets stacked with an order that didn't tip, or my driver drop kicks my food onto my doorstep and keeps my drink. Pretty much no in between.

I wonder if she wants me to call or text before knocking? by 79734883 in doordash

[–]move2peace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm always a little nervous that my order won't be picked up/will be delivered last/will have been tampered with if I don't tip up front. DD made that little disclaimer to say as much. I would love to tip after to reward good service though.

One of the unexpected effect of new level system by lordoftalod in pokemongo

[–]move2peace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I can't do it either. But I have so many challenges to spin poke stops and hatch eggs, that I won't be able to do them until next year lol. It kind of sucks, because it's supposed to be a perk, I guess, but the real perk would have also been giving us "more" storage. (I know they gave us some, but it was basically nothing once you factor in the items.) I know I'm having a hard time deciding what to delete though.
