@ngb_lilbreezy I ordered something through door dash last week. I didn’t get my drink. Y’know what I did? I took my food with a smile and thanked the person who delivered it. I drank water, asked door dash for a refund, and I got it. Y’know, like a decent person. I hope @DoorDash bans you guys.

@mellyrox @olivesagan I’ll never forget my boss at my first job asking me why I emailed him outside of work hours. I said I wanted to get the job done and he said, “anything that doesn’t get done by 5 can wait until tomorrow. Once you clock out, you’re done until you clock back in.” Best advice ever.
