It felt like there is a scarcity of resources available for adults.

Thats because there is.

I was assessed by someone here in the twin cities area, if you're in MN, DM me and I'll give you more specifics.

As a full time delivery,driver completely reliant on this to survive as I live in my car, but in another state, allow me to share some tips. (I do not take responsibility for your actions or the results.

1. Unless you have near-perfect overlap of your zones/active areas across multiple platforms, do not waste your main time (2 hrs on either side of a common meal time) trying to multi-app.

2. If you are choosing the cherrypick method of offer acceptance: Get to know the specific flow of high value orders during high order quantity times. Your acceptance rate, and therefore your average offers, obviously suffer with this method. Accept that as a fact and ensure that you're still the nearest/fastest/best driver. Attempting to maintain a nearly-next-tier acceptance rating is useless. (Example: Doordash does not officially take issue with drivers for acceptance rates except in outlier cases. You may be hovering around 10-30% and thats how cherrypicking works.)

3. If your customer has added anything into the details other than the default instructions,it is worth it to contact your customer directly with a more accurate and personal ETA upon leaving with their order. The same for when there is any sort of a wait. Yes the app sometimes notifies them automatically, but I've never had a complaint for doing this and you can automate a large chunk of this with Android phones, idk about iPhones. But I have seen a.noticible increase in likelihood of additional tips from being more specifically informative than the app is.

4. If you find yourself with a pain in the ass order to a shitty low/no tipper, and you find yourself frustrated that this won't even pay for your own meal.... then snap your blurry-as-hell photo as you drive by and go on your way with your meal that DeliveryCo.s investors just paid for. Seriously. I have over 5k deliveries across 3 apps, and I have had 2 strikes ever, both of which were removed after I disputed them.

look, the Customer gets their money back, and the very same number you call to attempt to get some help when an order goes to shit only to wait on hold for someone who is also underpaid as fuck to do exactly fuck-all to help IS THE SAME ONE THE CUSTOMER GETS. They are incentivised to process calls as quick as they can because they are being fucked by the same company fucking you. Not to mention the fact that if someone places an order and doesn't tip, then they cannot afford the order in the first place, and the get their money back. Moral relativism is built in to capitalism, and being the bigger person to a corporation when you haven't eaten since lunch yesterday only serves to perpetuate the problem.

5. Wealthy homes =/= great tips. Sometimes it does, and weathier areas do tend to have less 0$ tips, insufficient tips can be just as prevalent if not more in certain areas.

6. The staff at restaurants are hardly ever responsible for you having to wait for an order, and being kind and patient is a necessity and often results in your order getting finished with less mistakes and less time.

7. This is very dependent on your area, but the best times I have found on average generally with all 3 different States I have worked in:

-Monday breakfast

-Wed-Sat nights

-(*)Sunday until after late lunch(around 2:30pm)

-government holidays

I have had consistent crappy dekiveries with workday lunch hours.

(*) I have had both my very best tips and my absolute worst tips + deliveries on Sundays. Its random.

True, but lets stop conflating the market with a wise being.

My bad

In some, I do honestly think they have just been shown what looks like a potential solution, and they are tired or in financial turmoil to the point of trusting the scorpion. Union leaders are people too, and even the "corrupt" ones still benefit from the entire workerbase being lifted up... basically its not the big draw to evil people like being a cop or politician is.

I don't know how best to solve this issue in the age of WFH and companies with massive regional presence, but, we need our unions to have faces, to have a hand to shake and a smiling face to speak with.

I'm just pointing out that the entirety of Samsung's Android adds literally nothing of value to the user to the android experience and only serves to, at best, annoy. Not just this one particular feature.

While You Sleep - The Bamboo's

It captures a mood and moment that I can't describe all that well, but that I can imagine crystal clear.

Just make sure you listen to her new stuff, she gets nothing from the old stuff, I think.

New stuff is wild though, she certainly aged alongside me and I'm hear for it.

#ProblemsOfTheUpper-Lowers

Because I want to helpful: if you are moving to a home large enough for you to feel that an intercom is needed, then the cost associated with having a simple system installed would be the best way to maintain your privacy, well, your privacy to those without physical access to your home at least.

I can't think of any intercom-related reason that outweighs the needless additional network load, nightmarish privacy policies, and instant gratification through retail buttons, that a network of echo's could provide.

You should hire a nicely-dressed and polite person to simply relay your messages in person. And while not needed, they could be tending to other tasks, like your laundry or maybe tending the garden...

This exact thing is very popular in prison according to some family members.
