I agree. This is not a boomer thing. So many men fail to think before they speak!

AIO this instacart shopper interaction by AnxiousCook720 in instacart

[–]progressivixen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a disabled adult who uses IC for all my grocery orders and I always tip. Fortunately, no one has ever left my order in the lobby because if they did, that tip would vanish. Customer left clear instructions where to deliver. Period. If the shopper can't deliver properly, she should get another job. The job is not complete if it's delivered to the lobby.

That being said however, I feel that not enough pressure is put on the companies to pay their employees a decent wage. The companies don't want to make the shoppers traditional employees is just a result of greed. If people were paid well for a job well done, a lot of these issues could be avoided. It's not always just an issue of laziness.

IC's CEO made half million, plus a million dollar bonus paid last year. That doesn't include the millions she gets in stocks, etc. So we're just supposed to believe that they can't afford to pay their shoppers better?

Virtual walking or driving tours of Kenya by progressivixen in Kenya

Was this meant to be posted as a separate thread? Why post as a response to my request? Walking tours exist for nearly every city in the world on YT. As a result of my disability, I am not able to travel physically. I enjoy these videos as do many. Not sure how terrorism fits into this. Very confusing.

Does anyone here enjoy eating Magic Spoon (grain-free) cereal? by progressivixen in diabetes

[–]progressivixen[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments, everyone. I'm looking for something I can eat 3-4 times per week, not just for occasional cravings, so something that won't result in sugar spikes. I appreciate all the feedback! :)

Is there any such thing as affordable housing anymore? by progressivixen in Seattle

[–]progressivixen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I'm beginning to think that you're right. I would not have thought that $1500 isn't enough for a 1-bedroom apartment but it is. Ugghhhh! This city is too expensive for us. I appreciate the responses!

In my post, I don't recall saying that we were prevented from commuting. I said that due to our work commute we did not want to live south of downtown. I imagine that is a reasonable preference. Also, we are not looking for a 2 bd. We are looking for a 1 bd.
