I heard somewhere that her non-human manner was an act. She put on a show of acting like that when around investors and press, but acted differently in private.

Says something about VC's that they want to give their money to subhuman Zuck clones.

To make the poor kids feel even more outcast. Us poors had brown paper bags and everyone else got cool custom wraps.

(Obviously it's to protect the books, but IMO schools should have provided covers for everyone)

I want basically undercover boss, but not undercover and with rock solid legal contracts preventing retaliation. Make their CEOs do the shit work while they are hazed by low level employees and pelted with rocks.

Yet another Pope who's Catholic. C'mon, where's DEI when you need it?

I boil cut up potatoes until they're still a tiny bit undercooked and drain them in a colander. Then put a plate or pot lid on the colander and shake it up. Then season and pan cook them, ideally in some garlic infused oil.

It roughs up the surface of the potatoes giving more surface area to get crusty.

Edit: Got this from a Kenji recipe, which someone linked in another comment

I have fatphobic thoughts, and sometimes stereotype fat people. I'm trying to work on it, but it's hard stopping a particular pattern of thinking. I logically know what's wrong with that, and I don't believe I've actually acted on those thoughts, but it still is something I need to work on.

I think it's mostly because of traffic accidents, not violence.

I deliver groceries for Walmart Spark, and last night I took one last order because it was going towards my house. I had so many problems with shopping for it, and then I get to my car and load the address and the delivery note says, "Bring inside house".

I've had this note before and it's always some asshole who wants to treat me like their butler because they paid $10 for delivery. It's a huge time waste compared to leaving it on the stoop. "Put the milk in the fridge and put this here, and that there". I'm not even supposed to go inside, but when I tell them that I get, "Everyone else does it" and arguing ends up taking more time than just doing it.

Anyway, I get there and it's the sweetest little old lady named Doris. She was leaning on her walker, waiting at the door for me. She just got back from visiting her kids out of state and didn't have any food in the house. Brought her food in and talked to her for a few minutes.

It kind of made me sad because she shouldn't be living alone. I don't know the situation, though. Maybe her kids have tried to get her to move in with them and she doesn't want to.

I had to wait for a toilet to open in a Walmart bathroom and an employee used the urinal and didn't wash his hands. It was full of customers, and he didn't even do a half assed rinse off.

Is that a mandatory tip, what you normally tip or delivery service charge?

I know someone who works at Domino's and the pay structure is crazy at his store. He gets $15 an hour when he's at the store, but $7.25 while he's on deliveries. He gets $3 of the service charge, but it's a draw, meaning he only gets it after the charges have paid off his $7.25 hourly pay. He also gets a mileage reimbursement, but it's apparently not calculated right very often.

He still does ok, but it's purely on tips.
