I have been told some places they don’t want to deliver to at all.

The pretend customer still should tip the driver,  hopefully in cash. 

The pretend customer should be tipping the driver, hopefully with cash. 

Not really. There was a pretend customer waiting for the pizzas at a different location. And as you and others pointed out, Doordash steals tips made on the app, so I hope the pretend customer tipped with cash.

What essential job do you have that required you to drive all over the state during shelter in place/stay at home orders?

Sure, all of that was a bit confusing, but it isn’t confusing after being told that your county now requires you to wear a mask in public and you walk past a sign on the door plus a couple more reminding you that masks are required now because of local requirements and/or store policies. If someone really is still…

For myself l mostly agree with you, though it is a rare day that we spend $20 on takeout while we are at home. And we have no dry cleaning bill. We are trying not save for the time between the end of unemployment checks and it really being safe to go out and go back for work and all of that. So it is sometimes…

Maybe things have changed in the year or so since I stopped working, but if you have a delivery and the customer doesn’t come to the door within a certain amount of time, you leave with the food. When I was doing it, most of the time that was just McDonalds, and often right after I had just eaten lunch anyway.

One of my complaints about the stay at home orders is Six Flags. Other than things not being normal in general and actually worrying about getting sick and maybe dying, the main thing I miss is going to Six Flags. I don’t so much miss the rides, but I miss just going to the place a few times a week, walking around,…

Salon a la Mode lady has half a million dollars now after being ordered to close when she reopened a couple of weeks early.

Can you be served in space?

The point is you don’t even know if the item was in their warehouse, cause you don’t seem to know how the business worked or if that is still how it works.

You were the one with the comment of this is what Amazon does, followed by you were well aware of how Amazon built its business. So now you don’t actually know in general if this is still how they do business sometimes, so how can you know specifically if this is what happened in a particular transaction?

I’m not interested in what they sell.  I’m asking are all the people like me gone now.

Okay, but it started out being more like eBay, and mostly books.  Do they still do that stuff?

Is everything like that now? This is not how it started out. We used to sell books and they were never at a warehouse. But we got tired of Amazon fees going up and that was like ten years ago.

Actually, I hate the drive thru from both ends and wish a lot of them would go away. I have never seen this sign, but then I’ve not been to many drive thrus except when they made us for Uber. It would still be disruptive. There are times when it is just better to go inside.

There is nothing in the story that makes me think he was rude to her on purpose, he was just busy and couldn’t think of what to do. If they are not busy, I’m sure having an order typed out on a phone and waiting probably works just fine, though it would take a long time and you might as well go inside to wait.

The worst part of sparkling water is that I have the free refill cup at Six Flags, but I can only get sparkling water from three places, which are at one end of the park and half of the time aren’t open anyway.

Okay. But if you wanted to do that, you could add less sugar than in your usual sugar soda like Coke or Sprite.
