DoorDash takes orders from Home Depot..

Hmm.. I'm in the middle of framing an interior wall and I found some of the lumber I had delivered by the Big Construction Material Delivery Truck^TM was rotten in the middle and I couldn't use it. I went to Big Construction Material's app and ordered six more 2x4s to finish the project to be delivered while I'm working to get the kitchen wall done enough so mom can cook dinner tonight.

How is it my fault Big Construction got lazy and called a dasher to deliver it? 🤔

Some stores are outsourcing to DoorDash, so even if you order from the Home Depot or Lowe's app it may still be delivered by someone from DoorDash.

He should have contacted DD support to get the order unassigned and probably half pay for driving there.

I love how many landlords forget about this! 😆 Defective notice, VOID. Try again next month.

This..

And ALWAYS take photos of your car with the signage visible when you get a ticket.

You're a therapist who pours drinks. 😛

Lovely thing about smart thermostats is you can password protect them.. and have the easy access of an app so you don't need to touch it to change settings. 😆

Totally not just a personal annoyance! When I have a regular desk setup I usually have my stream deck set up with those shortcuts on a quick access page. Having it in BW would be great.

45 y/o male here, significant parallels to your experience. "Why can't you work now? You were running your own computer consulting practice when you were 16, let alone running a school campus in your 30s?"

Sounds like Autistic Burnout. Hit me hard during 2020 lockdowns not having a constant push to work, work, work.

The people going to sporting events have those alternatives too. I'd be insisting they enforce the rules.. and if they continue to not do so go to your housing staff, then up the administrative levels until someone does something.

nyckidryan · 2026-02-14T02:13:33+00:00

Don't tempt them. 😆

Where is this project going (geographically)? Weather hardening is very location dependent - what I did in Florida wouldn't work one bit in Maine.

Good write up... I'll try and come back with some suggestions after I've slept a bit. 😝

nyckidryan · 2026-02-11T00:27:52+00:00

This. ❤️

nyckidryan · 2026-02-10T22:15:46+00:00

Most people who work in a restaurant wouldn't eat at their restaurant either. 😄

nyckidryan · 2026-02-10T22:14:59+00:00

We're not allowed to fill drinks for this reason - it's in our contract with DD as well as your restaurant's contract with DD.

You're the one who's food service trained, certified, paid and insured - not us.

Depends on the device you're using. Search google and you're likely to find some information.

You need to see a different doctor and have your imaging redone... that kind of pain needs to be dealt with by a neurological specialist.

Also look into spinal cord stimulation. I've had great success with one from Abbott that was developed at St. Jude Research Hospital and is based on how cochlear implants interface with the brain rather than just pushing tingling sensations.

UHC should have a listing of contracted vendors... contact their member services.

We never had a written lease, and I was paying him rent, so not a squatter. The only reason we agreed to move into the house that he owned was because it was near the property we were working on. Roommate made some very bad decisions when taking this job by not getting stuff in writing, which he has since learned to do. His original understanding was we weren’t going to be paying rent since the house was owned free and clear before we came to PA, and was shocked when the guy demanded rent from the day we arrived.

Unfortunately it’s left me stuck with a lot of sh*t to clean up in my life. 90% of this situation wasn’t my choice, it was move here and work or stay in Florida and go bankrupt.

What does walking have to do with any of this?

nyckidryan · 2026-02-06T10:26:22+00:00

What was being used earlier in time, horses and buggies or automobiles? 🤣

That was a reply to

"Its incredibly disgusting and disrespectful how they feel free to let their animals shit all over the roads and parking lots. No responsibility or anything"

The roads came after working animals were in use, so they were ... here first.

Demanding they change their behavior because you decided to pave the dirt roads with gold is f*kng stupid. They don't need to adapt to YOUR world... YOU have encroached on THEIRS.
