  • Thanks! I’m just a hapless homeowner who occasionally roleplays being handy enough to fix things (though my last shelving unit for my basement came out remarkably level, surprisingly).

    (I had actually been hoping to repair the Dewalt, as it’s a hand-me-down from my dad (fuck cancer), but I’m pretty sure it’d be a lost cause (the drill is at least 20 years old, probably older, I’m pretty sure I remember my dad using it when I was a kid).)















    • To-go orders get NOTHING.

    My comment is entirely scoped to to-go orders; I agree with everything else you say (though I haven’t used a ride share in forever).

    I always tip for to-go orders in my hometown. Now my favorite places call out my name as I enter and treat me great. I’ve seen them replace the pizza stacked with my order with a fresh pizza right out of the oven, for example, or they’ve given me an extra pizza or side.

    When I’m on the road, I still tip $1 for to-go orders because I know the workers are still getting a shit wage.

    Granted, I’m in a financial position where I can afford to do this. But I’d love if we could get rid of the whole tipped-minimum-wage thing and just raise minimum wages across the board/enact UBI to make tipping only for exemplary service.
