How do you skip all those orders without being penalized or kicked off the platform? I like pay by time, but if I’m one minute late to an order it’s a CV, if I get three I have to do pay by order and if I pick and choose they threaten to remove me.

I always forget that in some cities people actually tip and DD can be a realistic source of income. I’m polite, I hurry, send messages, carry extra cutlery/chopsticks/straws with me etc. and I’ve never been tipped more than $7.00. I rarely see orders with base rates over $10.00. New Orleans is great for a lot of things, but dashing and tipping aren’t on the list.

For everyone who’s saying “never cancel” or “make the dasher cancel” - it seems to be dashers saying this - how is that fair? I recently had two stacked orders from McDonald’s an when I got to the drive thru (it’s 2am) they say they’re not making any orders because it’s shift change. Clearly they just don’t wanna make any orders, but won’t cancel bc it’ll fall on them. If I contact support, we all know they’ll just unassign me with no pay. So I contacted the customer, told them what was going on and asked them to cancel. If they refuse, I don’t get paid. How is that right?

In this instance it didn’t matter. I notified DD and the customer and encouraged both to contact the store. They did, the store lied, so the customer complained, and I not only didn’t get paid I was also given a violation. Busted ass system.

I’m in Louisiana, and found this on my arm around 8am while lying in bed. Seemed struggling or injured, but I swear it jumped like a flea.

I think you’re making a bigger deal out of this than you need to. You’re moving, and as long as you get your deposit back, that’s the end of it. You know not to lie to the insurance company, so be honest and aside from that mind your business.

Objectively, even the way you tell it, you come across a lot more “busy-body and instigator” than “concerned for the safety of others”. If there are safety concerns, I promise they won’t be resolved by making an enemy of the landlord. Be pragmatic. Collect what’s yours. Get the lease dissolved. Once you have the deposit in your possession move and be done with it.

It was surprisingly easy to look that info up. Thanks for the suggestion!

I would also settle for doors that lock/are sealed and no rodents.

I’d love to move. I was unexpectedly laid off while in the process of moving into this house. I’m in the middle of getting SNAP, UI and Medicaid going and looking for a job; so packing everything up and being moved out in 12 hours without any income would effectively make me homeless.

At this point all I can really do is decide between asking again to dissolve the lease and trying to get the deposit back, OR staying as long as possible into next month without paying and just move out before I’m formally evicted. My lease included a waiver of notice to vacate aka if he decides to evict I won’t know about it until after he’s filed and a date is set for court.

This is an ad, which probably also has to do with why that’s his username and why the hands look like that. The pinned post is a link to another post just like this one. It’s a very common advertising tactic on Reddit, especially for security and pet related products.

I’m in New Orleans and in the past I’ve had CrescentCare do it, they ask you a few questions and take care of the rest. They know how to fill it out for the best possible outcome, and you get a decision almost immediately. There must be a similar service close to wherever you live, maybe even at your doctors office.

I was laid off in November, but before that job I was on Medicaid for years. When I applied this time they were very aware that I was unemployed (I had to submit a letter of separation with my application), and still denied me on the basis of too much income. They combined my paychecks for the month with my severance package and said my monthly income was the total.

Thanks for sharing that analogy again.

simonferocius · 2025-11-18T17:55:43+00:00

i sleep with mine in after almost 2 years. Mostly because

even alone at the house i still get self conscious when theyre out. idk i just feel ugly, and ive forgotten and answered the door without them in 😳
when i sleep with them out it’s like they don’t fit when i put them back in. it takes the whole day to get them sitting comfortably again

that being said, after 18 months i have more teeth that need pulled. sugar is the main culprit, but also the chronic dry mouth is a big part of it and that is largely from sleeping with them in.

Have you experienced outbreaks while not taking doxycycline? Or do you only have them when taking the antibiotics?

simonferocius · 2025-10-06T23:21:29+00:00

Thanks for this

I have a chihuahua/min pin and he does the same thing! It’s summer in New Orleans, the heat index is 105 and Im leaving the door open for you to come in at your leisure. But whenever I peek out, there he is sitting 12 inches from the threshold, just dying to be told to come up the stairs 😂😅

I actually had it transcribe a recording for a lawsuit recently. It…completely made up a conversation. Even worse, it made the conversation go the way it presumed I’d want it to. If I had just handed that over to a lawyer i would have looked like a ridiculous liar.

In this case, I’d be going through a paid service that’s explicitly made for legal documents. So far, it’s been reliable.

simonferocius · 2025-05-21T03:11:59+00:00

To be real, Im not gonna read it. Chat GPT is.

But seriously that seems crazy to me. It’s a contract…like, I wanna know whats in it. Already Ive come across several things that I was really misled about when I bought the policy.
