Here is what many do. Week or 2 before Christmas tape a card/envelope to your door. One marked "UPS" and the other "USPS" (my town USPS delivers most Amazon like dog food and UPS delivers heavier Amazon packages)

Tips are optional. Often, people who came up from the working class tip because they recall crappy pay, poor conditions etc when they started and appreciate my hard work with a tip. Others do not look at it that way and have your own thin

Yes.. but my thinking was not that that so much as the level of effort to research any topic. Say, for example, you wanted to know how your representative voted. Or, you wanted to see how other universities planned for the March on DC Janu
