I thought about doing that but that hurts the server not the owner. The only way is to let the owner know you don’t like their policy and not frequent that place as often. I’ve been doing that with the Mexican restaurant that I’ve gone to for years. Coincidentally, a new Mexican restaurant just opened closer to me, it’s an established name about 7 miles from me. I’ve heard the food is good but I’ve never eaten there. I’m curious what their policy is.

I also have a big dislike of delivery. if we are getting takeout, I go pick it up. At least I know it is getting back quick since I get there early before it is ready. I used doordash once when my boss sent a gift card as a perk (since us remote people didn't get to attend a lunch event in the office).
generally will get pizza, and sometimes chinese food. anything else we either go out (to get out of the house) or make it ourselves.

The stores could still give you a paper sack but they charged you for those, or could sell you a reusable bag for $1. Meanwhile the municipality requires you to recycle your paper, boxboard and plastic or glass containers, along with cans, but separate them into their own plastic film bags for pickup. Go figure.

My only question was, did the post office destroy it but still deliver it or did the cable company screw up at their end. Regardless, if they had the destroyed check why did the call us up and claim they never received it?

They seem to be the cheapest on generic diet cola (which I drink one of per day), and zero calorie flavored soda water (which I drink several of per day).
My wife was disappointed with me last weekend because we paid a low three-figure bill at a local restaurant with middling food quality (but a really good waiter); she told me to "give her a really good tip." So, I gave her a $20 tip! Afterward, my wife is doing the math in her head, and says, "That was only like 15%." I said, "Good lord. It was $20! We probably doubled her pay that hour, and that was a bad tip?"

Maybe they think you photoshoped it. Then again it could be a stall tactic. You should show them the results of your feud with Cadillac awhile back.

I agree it’s a road hazard but more often than not it’s a hazard caused by junk that wasn’t tied down and bounced off onto the road. I call that “cause and effect”. But, until you can prove a rock came off a particular truck you’re going to be told, “go pound sand”. Getting a video of the event may be the only way to prove it, which is almost never going to happen. So us motorists have to suck it up.

No plastic bags in Jersey either. It’s the dumbest piece of legislation ever.
The old plastic bags were put to good use emptying the litter box, small messes, lunch bags, bathroom trash can liners, etc.
Now we buy small trash bags for that use. We also get tons of the reusable ones from our food deliveries. I had so many I threw them away. I also won’t reuse them if they have had raw meat in them. Maybe that is “extra” but I won’t do it.
Recently I asked one of the couriers who brought my food order if they wanted the for their deliveries and they were very happy. Gave her about 50

They have to be replaced in pairs. If I buy 4 I get $200 off. One place had them in stock and if I brought the car in Saturday at 9:30 they would have me out by noon....with 4 new tires. They had 4 Michelin Pilot Sport S/As in stock, he says they rarely have 4 Michelins that size, as soon as they come in someone wants them. So, instead of fooling around and getting stuck somewhere or making plans to come in again one day I got 4 tires for $1200, and they ride beautiful....the Pirellis were good, maybe they get sloppy, but the Michelins are firm and solid feeling....I love them!
btw....if they have to order them you can't drive for 3 or 4 days....this way the fun never stops....I just keep going!!!!!!

I have been cleaning out some tech I no longer use from my home office. Some of it (particularly Apple gear) has worth on the used market. These days, eBay has become nefarious for buyers who either don't pay, or use some sort of silly reason why the gear wasn't "as described", or sometimes just bid and disappear after winning the item.
So, I'm giving them a rest.
There are some places out there who offer decent money for Apple gear. The catch is, you have to send it to them before you get paid. There's a level of trust there, even though many of them post glowing reviews (many times of dubious origins) on their WEB sites.
One of these places, "Jay Brokers", seemed to be legit. I sent them a pair of AirPod Max headphones. These days, I use "in ear" AirPod Pros and have not used the over ear Max headphones since I quit traveling all the time.
Price they offered was decent. We agreed on the price. I had assumed they'd send me a check, like other places do who buy tech on line.
Nope! These guys said they want to do a direct deposit to my checking account, and they claim in order to prove my identity, they'd need my DOB, last four digits of my SS#, my address, my checking account # and my routing #. Frankly, with all that information, you could dive into my checking and savings with little effort.
I balked at that. And, said I'd accept a check. They said they don't do checks. Don't buy that, at all.
But OK. We're at an impasse. I told them to send the headphones back to me. My hope is that they will.
Am I being unreasonable? They sure acted like I was.
I wouldn’t have given them any of that info either. Just curious, how much are you out if they steal them?

No way - I’d maybe give them the routing and checking # to get my money but not the the last 4 of my SS or my DOB. The other stuff is the same info there is on a check.

That’s worth finding a way to get them to return your hardware. If they balk maybe you can offer to pay the return shipping costs. Of course giving them a bad review on one of the sites that do that might be all you can do if they steal your stuff.

Stopped at Bernheim Forest today. The parking lot closest to the visitors center was full, including the two EV charging spots, but when I went to the next closest parking lot, I discovered they had installed four more EV chargers, none of which were occupied. I went from about 78% to 91% while parked there.
