Same. Our local Walmart uses DoorDash for their grocery delivery - I always hand them the cash. Walmart sends an email or two afterwards (sometimes as late as two days after!) asking for a tip. Prior to this being public I had zero faith in the drivers receiving the funds. 

Tip pooling is garbage.

The issue is that when you tip $5 Doordash pays the driver $5 less. So while in theory the driver is getting the tip in practice they’re earning the same amount of money.

To be fair, and as the article mentions, this is exactly how it works for servers at restaurants, and we don’t seem to care much about that. Sure, usually servers at restaurants end up making more than the minimum, but not always, and it is definitely a case where peoples tips make up for what the company should be

I'll allow it.

Generally, this only happens if you try to add the tip into the credit card payment up-front. That’s been a bad idea for tipping for decades. Just don’t do it. Not in restaurants. Not in taxis. Not to delivery drivers. As soon as you do that, chances of the person serving you getting the tip you intended drop to

Sounds like tipping the drivers in cash (though I never have any) is really the way to go.

Can they be substituted by motor boat noises or train noises?

I don’t think you’re quite getting it.

lol...going to be pedantic here, but the quarries/Sarasota is actually just below the F on your graphic...so you need to move that bulge farther South.

Radiolab did a great podcast on this event that I highly recommend everyone listen to.  Super fascinating. 

That you are aware of.

So... yeah. Fuck these guys, but also, fuck “satire news site”. It is the cheapest possible humor (extremely easy to come up with funny skits) and it does no one any favors. There should be a license for such sites and The Onion should be the only one to get it.

That moniker, “The Squad,” needs to go. This isn’t a Marvel movie. As far as I know the only ones who haven’t referred to them as “The Squad” are... themselves. They’ve mostly played along and politely ignored is, but they are four different reps from four different states, and lumping them together like they’re

If I were suddenly granted omnipotence I’d make every smoker from that moment forward eat every cigarette butt that they litter. I’d also envelope every cigarette smoker inside of a magic bubble that would prevent any of their nasty toxic smoke from escaping.

I’d also turn Trump into a pig.

...the most practical thing smokers can do right now is realize the damage their butts are causing the environment.

Or save yourself some time and just buy Palmetto Cheese. Stuff is addictive.
