Apple Turnovers

@gotrice2024 @EricaRN4USA I was waiting for a new iPad Pro to be delivered by FedEx. $1500 item. I hear a noise and look out the window and he’s at the door. I rush downstairs, open the door to hear the truck taking off. He was required to get a signature. Left a note. He left without ringing or knocking.

@gotrice2024 @EricaRN4USA I was home waiting for a new iPad Pro to be delivered by FedEx. Im usoatris

This man was expecting his new furniture delivery, he took the day off from work so that he could have them carry the heavy new ones in since he was alone. Later that day during their ridiculously long delivery window, he gets a text saying that he missed the delivery and to click a link to reschedule. He was confused because he’s been home all day and he never gotten any indication anyone came. He checked his door cam and saw that they did come, pretended to ring the doorbell while taking a picture to prove to the boss that they came, and then left. At this point he had already taken out the old sofas and his living room is bare, he has nowhere to sit now and the next delivery window isn’t for a few days next week, what would you have done in this situation?

Can you name ONE movie for Sean Connery that is NOT Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade 1989, The Rock 1996, or James Bond Franchise'?

@BrandonStraka How are they able to stay up dancing on gas pumps all night and still make it to work on time?

You pull into a gas station hoping for a quick stop—only to walk into this instead.

@wakeupusa I’ve ridden the NYC subway only once and that was back in January 1984. Will never happen again.

You are riding on the NYC subway. This person boards the subway and does this. How do you react?

@C_3C_3 When I was a kid in the 60s I would never stand that close to the tracks

23 year old Kamel Hawkins… Should result in an immediate public death penalty. For everyone to see.

@Cortraining619 @littlefeather54 @perseverare1776 If you don't take the 2 dollar orders, you will get knocked off the platform and can have trouble getting back on.

@littlefeather54 @perseverare1776 They aren't employees they are independent contractors. If you don't tip it's not worth it to the contractors to take your bid for service and your food will sit until someone reluctantly takes your order. Good luck low-balling people you cheap mofo

What would you do in the situation? You order a burrito and have it delivered by DoorDash. The driver shows up, leaves the food and walks away. Then, when she sees you didn’t leave a tip she goes back and grabs the food off of your front step. 😲 She tells you that because you didn’t tip you don’t deserve the food. Was she right or did she overreact? Is tipping necessary ?

@littlefeather54 @perseverare1776 They get paid about 2 dollars a delivery. That's 4 dollars an hour. Costs more to run you car at 72 cents a mile.

@perseverare1776 Does DoorDash pay the drivers? If they do then tipping is optional and it’s another industry that expects consumers to pay their employees. In this situation I hope the little entitled skank gets fired.

@richierigg1 @perseverare1776 It's run by some guy from China who is a billionaire and cheats the drivers, cheats the restaurants, and cheats the customers. Wish ICE would throw his as* out of my country.

Doordash has a special inflated menu for clients on the app. I have a local restaurant that charges 12.99 for a cheese steak, and it's 17.50 on the app plus delivery. Doordash, like Uber, does not pay their drivers well at all. The car, the gas, the insurance, and their time are not in consideration. I agree. The girl was wrong for her actions. The problem, though, is Doordash and apps like it.

@RoD4wgg @perseverare1776 Drivers are usually paid 2 dollars a delivery by doordash. Two deliveries per hour and you make 4 dollars through doordash. Two 5 dollar tips means grossing 14 dollars an hour. Subtract car expenses and that leaves half for the net earnings.

People don’t understand how “tipped workers” are actually paid. It’s not required but we should remember they’re not paid full minimum wage and the difference is made up in tips. Rideshare drivers and food delivery are paid less than minimum wage, just like waitresses. I bet these guys tip the barista without realizing Starbucks employees are paid at minimum, minimum wage…..

@perseverare1776 A driver rarely gets a tip at the door. Maybe 5 times out of 3700 deliveries I have done. There's a rate where DoorDash hides tips. Was 6.25 last time I dashed. Anything lower than that will never have a tip. Anything above that could see the tip bring the pay higher then 6.25.

@SaveStandard The entire east coast would benefit by doing this. There’s a reason standard time has gotten shorter and shorter and shorter over the years.

🚨 Georgia State Senate advances bill to change time zone entirely, without interstate coordination, and no public testimony! It would put sunrise past 8am for 4½ months, as late as 8:50am! 👉 Tell your GA state house reps to OPPOSE HB 154 today!

@its_The_Dr 72

99 percent will fail.

@SupportStandard I’m all for permanent DST, but Atlantic time?

Bad news for the people in Georgia Georgia Senate Rams Permanent Daylight Saving Time Bill or changing to a new time zone In a 45-5 vote, the Georgia Senate has passed HB 154, the so-called "Georgia Sunshine Protection Act." The bill forces the governor to petition the U.S. Department of Transportation to shift the state from Eastern to Atlantic Standard Time zone. If approved, Georgia would observe Atlantic time year-round—effectively locking in permanent daylight saving time without needing congressional action. This is a terrible mistake. Please tell your governor to veto this bill We need to keep it on Eastern Standard time, not Atlantic Standard Time

@MacTexasMom @614clinton Not the guy who plays one on Chicago Med. He works around the clock. Same as the X-ray guy.

@614clinton I have a friend that chose to be an anesthesiologist when she became a doctor because she wouldn’t have to deal much with people and could have regular hours! True story.

Anyone know of a good job for someone who hates people?

@r0ck3t23 @VBierschwale I was born in Vermont and saw an amazing pastoral photo today of a red covered bridge with Vermont mountains in the background. The AI desc was waxing ecstatic of the quaintness of the covered bridge and majesty of the mountains. Only thing is, those were not Vermont mountains.

Larry Ellison just told every software engineer on Earth their job description is dead. Not evolving. Dead. Ellison: “The code that Oracle is writing, Oracle isn’t writing. Our AI models are writing.” This is not a startup demo. This is one of the largest infrastructure monopolies on the planet telling you it already replaced the people who built it. For fifty years, building software meant translating human intent into machine instructions. Line by line. Bug by bug. Sprint by sprint. That entire layer is gone. Ellison: “We don’t write the procedure. We declare our intent.” That sentence just made the entire engineering labor market flinch. The procedure was the job. The procedure was the paycheck. The procedure was what made a developer valuable. And now the machine does it without being asked twice. Ellison: “We just tell the model what we want the program to do, and then the AI comes up with a step-by-step process to actually do it.” You are no longer paid to build. You are paid to think. And most organizations have no idea how to evaluate that. The companies still hiring armies of developers to grind through codebases are paying salaries the machine already made worthless. Not in years. In seconds. When a company worth hundreds of billions hands the keyboard to the machine and tells you the output is better, the debate is not winding down. The debate is over. The enterprise that wins this decade does not write the best code. It removes the human from the process entirely and runs on intent alone. The programmers who survive are the ones who realize the craft is no longer typing. It is architecture. It is judgment. It is knowing what to build and why. Everything else now belongs to the machine. And the machine does not negotiate severance.

@joeroganhq Half-black president.

Sunny Hostin: "This is a country based on racism and slavery and misogyny! There's a reason why this country has only had one black male president."

@sciencegirl No

Are we alone in the universe

@MagaMama1776 @MAGA_X_Times 95 percent of songs, which is why I play CDs.

@no_neva70 @officer_Lew I rented a long-term rate hotel in Waltham, MA for several months for $2100 a month, this must have been around 2011 or 2012. I found out the state of Massachusetts was paying the hotel $100 a night per room to house poor people.

@officer_Lew This ruins many nice neighborhoods and makes housing unaffordable. Who wants to rent out their home for 1200/month when the govt will pay you 1800/ month to house welfare recipients in it? Now, what recourse does this homeowner have?
