Trick question because it doesn't always guarantee 12 oz each.

Tiggum posted:I know where it is. It's in a depot in the CBD. That doesn't really help me. What I need to know is when it's actually going to arrive at my house, which they can't/won't tell me. It might show up on the tracking information at some point, but I don't know what phrase/information to look out for because they use their own jargon rather than plain English. The issue isn't how it works, it's that the information they provide is misleading and incomplete. Once you get a number, of the center ask for the "Center Manager". They will pick up the phone. Give them the tracking number and ask them to "Message the driver." to find out where he is because the package is critical. They'll give you an estimate within about a 15 minute window depending on traffic. That works with both UPS and Fedex. If it's USPS, just give up. They don't have the equipment to message the drivers the same way.

It's none of those things, Tiggum is in Australia. Courier companies are universally the dirt worst. I once sent a large package to Lima, Peru that DHL sent to Lima, Ohio. Instead of sending it on to the right place, they destroyed it and emailed me a claim form.

"no contact delivery" when the delivery person is required to stand around and make sure you open the door and pick the poo poo up. and in the worst cases, still has to get you to sign poo poo. jesus christ having been on both sides of this nonsense just no, no one wants this. knock, text, put the thing, even if its hot food, at the door, then leave. no one wants the awkward 10 foot contact and no one wants to touch the sketchy pen or the gross delivery receipt.

As someone who just had a delivery that was so "no contact" that it didn't even happen, there at least needs to be some verification that they're in the right place at all or that they ever even existed.

Yeah that’s not really any different from pre-pandemic bad deliveries because “contact” means “touching and talking with the delivery person” not “delivery person calls, texts, or otherwise communicates about the status of the thing”

My actual peeve is that something as minor as a missing delivery and a business that's slow to respond because they're swamped and understaffed, feels like a disaster because every other stressor in life has been turned up to max.

My roommate has discovered Broad City. I have no issues with the show itself, but she is constantly repeating what just happened. Like, I just saw the same thing, you don't have to remind me what I just saw 3 seconds ago.

“*gasp* Why did she do that?!” *me struggling to recap half a season of setup for a show my wife was only half watching* “Who’s that guy?” “We haven’t seen him before. I don’t know.” “But you always know. Is he a bad guy?” “He’s literally been on screen for 20 seconds and done nothing.” “I’m looking up how this ends.” I love my wife, but she is not a good show watching partner.

Oh god, my wife does that too. Once, right as the first scene of the movie started, she asked who the character on screen was. It's not like she was distracted by her phone or whatever either, she was sitting next to me watching the movie the whole time. It boggles the mind.

If we're watching a movie I've already watched my mom will keep asking me whether her theory about how the movie ends is accurate. I'd be spoiling it if I said one way or the other! Just keep watching!!

Whenever this happens, I'll give people one chance to turn back. Like, if they ask "oh, is he secretly a bad guy?" I'll be like "do you actually want me to answer that?" and if they say "yes" then I'll just spoil the whole thing because that's apparently what they want.

On the other end of the spectrum it's really annoying when you don't want someone to answer literally, because you're just speculating, and they just tell you without asking first. As a livestream guy I've learned to add "... And DON'T tell me if I'm right or not!!" at the end of every tangent about plot developments. If I don't do that some dipshit in the chat will be like oh yeah lysanderoth is totally the bad guy all along can't wait to see your reaction to the reveal

The people who pay lip-service to social-isolation, but in the same breath go 'oh you should come by, I'll make some stuff and I invited some other people over.' My sister is currently annoyed (& whining) that I won't hop onto the bus/tram for a 2x35min ride to visit her, because she's decided to invite me and some other siblings and etc over for a easter-y breakfast tomorrow. gently caress off, not everyone is as lucky as you, where you're just working from home 3-4 hours a day and getting paid for a full 8, and will continue to do so for months. And will keep on getting paid in full if you get sick. Being a freelancer is just loving exponentially more lovely now with the whole covid thing going on. Already lost one source of income from a project just getting iced and them going 'we'll look at picking this up again in 2021, k?'.

My peeves are only sharper now that I cannot escape my family. WHY does my husband not remove the labels from food cans before opening them? WHY does he leave them AND the can opener right out on the counter all loving day?  WHY is there a completely empty bottle of honey ON the cupboard shelf IN FRONT OF an entirely new, unopened bottle?

Speed bumps are not stop signs. Your car is not going to explode if you go 5-15mph(depending on bump type) over one instead of screeching to a halt and then going up to the hair-raising speed of 1mph. Speed bumps are already lovely bandaid solutions put in place instead of properly designing residential roads to discourage high speeds(but people freak out at the idea of narrowing roads/removing lanes/adding on-street parking/generally designing roads for the speed you want people to go, instead of making them nice and big and gently curved because that makes you feel 'safer'). Stop making them worse by making it impossible to predict what the car in front of you is going to do in response to one.

There's not really a way to know ahead of time what speed the speed dump is designed to destroy your car at, though. The one that was on the street I lived on as a kid was in a 15 mph zone and people had exhaust parts ripped off their car from going over it at 10 mph all the time. They also gently caress over ambulances, which have a reason to be going faster and don't have the suspension to deal with just launching over it.
