Your delivery driver really wishes you’d keep a pair nearby for their brief interaction.

Pre COVID, takeout meant not tipping at all. We should probably shift back towards that world.

His problem was that he had a vision, possibly the correct one, with absolutely no clue how to execute it. That is unforgivable in a CEO.

Best Buy's web site still carries some quality. It also has some random items you might not expect. I found a sling bag on their site in a size that had been sold out on the brand's site for months. These days BB and BHPhoto tend

Now that they tend to price match Amazon and vice-versa there really is no reason to buy from Amazon. If it's in my local stores BB gets it to me faster too.

Ha! You just reminded me how we changed our Alexa to Ziggy while my kid was away at college. He came home over a break and was eventually screaming "Alexa" trying to get it to wake up.

"I backed the trailer part way up the driveway. I hope that's ok, sir." "You'll want to feed him some oats unless you're ready to butcher him in the next two hours."

The left has a progressive segment that is very vocal online. I have yet to see that translate into much power or influence in national politics.

They lost most of those readers due to an alarming shift rightward in tone and coverage. Not Fox News right but certainly further right than they have historically been. Seems an odd choice to combat that loss by apparently shifting further

I broke my collarbone about 30 years ago. Then had it partially rebroken when a friend forgot about my healing bone and greeting me with a shoulder grab from behind. (He felt like shit afterwards). I got the most basic healthcare a free col

True, but like the VC model with companies, it's very difficult to consistently identify those people in advance. Invest in a load of qualified, promising individuals and hope more than a few "hit".

I have 3 toilets in my house. One I was able to tap into the power supply at the light switch and install on outlet for a fancy Toto model. My other two bathrooms would require opening up walls and running new wiring through many studs in o

Do Polish bathrooms tend to have an instant water heater installed in the bathroom like much of Europe? American homes have one main heater, often far from the bathroom. I have to run my shower for nearly a full minute before I get any hot

The majority of governors are all in on this new Republicanism. They can pardon any crime that Trump can't. Blue state governors can be leaned on extremely hard and most will have to give in if their Federal dollars are on the line. Th

I think it's more that there is nothing to be gained about asking an American in Europe about Trump. Most likely, they think he's a douchenozzle too so why bring him up and ruin a vacationer's day. On the off chance they are

We are a nation of laws still. At least three judges have told Trump/Musk to stop what they are doing. The problem we are running into right now is who enforces the laws when the Executive branch decides they don't want to follow

Ultimately, I would expect the report to lay blame on both ATC and the helicopter pilot. The degree to which that blame should be allocated will be determined by the investigation. A less likely factor that could conceivably be uncovered wo

The job requires 20/20 uncorrected vision near and far. After 50, that starts to become pretty darn rare. The mental load required to keep all of these moving parts in your head and recall both what you have instructed them to do and w

Probably because you could die from medical malpractice tomorrow but the final determination will take many years to resolve in the courts. Is there much value in going back and revising a number of deaths from 2019? Maybe. If the numbers a

I sort of had that in my HS English classes more than 30 years ago. Every paper we ever wrote for my final two years was in class for one hour. Occasionally we would get a second class period to work on our papers but the teacher held them

EU has pensions. US has 401k plans. There may be more millionaires in the US but that, in and of itself, doesn't prove anyone is better off there.

Those problems are universal. Or do you honestly think that American startups don't need to hire an accountant and consult with lawyers? You either find the risk/reward proposition worthwhile or you don't. There's nothin

There is no appetite for increasing supply anywhere in the West. Maybe Trump will get us into WWIII and we can shift the demand curve.

Insurance is not going to cover the value of the land, except perhaps to the extent there are expenses related to making it suitable for rebuilding. If the land loses 90% of its value, that’s yours to absorb. I’m sure it is possible to get
