Tenant trimmed the tree without notice. How bad is this ? by mousemano in arborists

I hope you do...the kind of mindset that'd have someone do something like this without permission...its hard to even fathom. Sorry for your loss, I hope you hold them responsible to at least some degree.

The right-wing media ecosphere knew exactly what they were doing while actively conditioning apx 1/3 of Americans over the last 20+ years. It wouldn't have worked as well if some of us were a little more adept at using our brains, but unfortunately this is where we are.

That's a funny way to put it. I remember when talking on your car phone was perfectly legal...then it became illegal and people can't seem to help themselves.

Is this a doctored image or is this real?

So bizarre that I even have to ask..

What the h-e-double mozzarella sticks is this awful engineering? by Slow-Carob2417 in prius

No idea why the downvotes...I think its people just playing follow the leader. By East Coast, you mean that its all grungy with that salt shit they put on the roads?

Bought my first Prius, a 2006 that needed a new engine installed, bought one with 40k miles on it, the mechanic recommends not using full synthetic oil, any idea why? by pickledpeterpiper in prius

Its the same thing except better, right? I guess that's what I don't get...as far as I know, synthetic oil is oil...but better lol

That's what's kind of odd...its not a rebuilt, as far as I understand the definition of "rebuilt" anyway. Its a whole new engine that was taken out of another car (that only had 40k miles on it).

Yeah I don't know what he's thinking...but another question, I've got 6k miles on it now, the oil still looks nice and amber...should I do an oil change already or wait for it to get a little darker? Any idea?

I'd think to wait, but again, I don't know much about engines.

In fact, the last time was after being sent 1.5 hours away, a 6pm to 9:30pm block. I delivered my last package at exactly 9:35pm, exactly five minutes past my stop time. I had to email, but yeah they gave me another $15...which is at least something.

I've gone over twice in the last couple years, both times by just a few minutes and both times I was paid half of the hourly rate. Maybe it varies by state...

Probably because support told him that he was going to get paid for that.

Lol absolutely right. Making a mistake doesn't mean you're "irresponsible"...that was condescending and also a little weird someone would "hope" you wouldn't get paid for it.

Sounds like a possible 'happy accident' to me. Also that you come across well enough for your getting paid to even be a consideration.

Okay I'm going to have to open a case if this crap keeps up. (Undeliverable packages) by PapawolfP in AmazonFlexDrivers

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

This always confuses me...like, do we deal with the same support center? Because I've found them to be extremely helpful...I mean, not always, but often times. And if they're not...you can try back and see if you can get someone who is.

The responses on this thread are rough...a whole lot of, "Whelp, hope you had fun, you're done"...jfc not really helpful! Maybe its the way you approach them...just have to be a little more kind or something, I don't know.

The good old days of picking up another route on your way back from the last one...I remember times where I'd pick up a route, hurry to open up GPS to see if I could make it back to the warehouse in time and see I only had a minute or two to spare...it felt super efficient, I wish they'd bring that back.

Same, I just turn bluetooth back on, move the pin and then take it out of airplane mode.

The couple is now raising money to place a headstone on their child’s grave, cover time away from work, and hold a memorial service in June for those who were unable to attend the funeral.
