Ghost of Reagan Past posted:I haven't lived in AZ in a while, but don't IDs and driver's licenses basically never expire? My old (now invalid) AZ driver's license wasn't supposed to expire until 2046 or something insane like that. Just googled it and it seems that AZ licenses apparently "Licenses expire on the 65th birthday, and until then drivers only need new photos every 12 years — making Arizona unique in how long a license can last. Starting at 65, drivers must renew every five years, with a vision test each time. At age 70, renewal can no longer be done by mail."

I've never really got the whole 'sever cause you have different (sometimes abhorrent) political views then me' mentality. Maybe it's because I live in the deep South and would have to cut ties with about 80% of the people I know.

I was a plumber for awhile and while it was hard labor some days (so many Alabama summer days digging to lay septic lines) I would never have traded it for bricklaying. Or roofing. My god those jobs are miserable on you.

Pizza Delivery for a near decade of my life. Over that time I found no rhyme or reason to who will tip. The only thing I know was I got more angry at being stiffed is when someone had a nice car and house and would just sign the CC receipt with nothing. That or people who would get an order of about 19.89, hand you a twenty and then say 'keep the change'. God I hated that job and all it did was leave me still broke with no savings and two broken down vehicles. Either way, Nitrousoxide posted:Honestly people who tip like poo poo are scumbags and have no excuse.

Also, I don't if it the same all around, but pizza delivery here in the part of Alabama I live in get payed less on road then in store. You get minimum in store, something like 4.50 (been a year or two since I did that job) on road. Not quite server wages but still a bad cut on top of the wear and tear to your vehicle. Also, any tips and the small amount of either mileage or the delivery fee you get is going right back into your car in gas and maintenance. Tip your drat delivery person.

Also imagine you're poor and less educated and you been fed lies all your life how Unions will only collect dues from you for nothing in return. Also imagine your boss can fire you for pretty much any reason (unofficially of course) and you better not talk to fellow coworkers about unionizing unless you want out on your rear end.

This morning I was awoken by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the US Department of Energy. I then took a shower in the clean water provided by the municipal water utility. After that, I turned on the TV to one of the FCC regulated channels to see what the National Weather Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration determined the weather was going to be like using satellites designed, built, and launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. I watched this while eating breakfast of US Department of Agriculture inspected food and taking the drugs which have been determined as safe by the Food and Drug Administration. At the appropriate time as regulated by the US Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the US Naval Observatory. I get into my National Highway Traffic Safety Administration approved automobile and set out to work on the roads built by the local, state, and federal departments of transportation, possibly stopping to purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the Environmental Protection Agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve bank. On the way out the door I deposit any mail I have to send via the US Postal Service and drop the kids off at the public school. After work, I drive my NHTSA car back home on the DOT roads, to a house which has not burned down in my absence because of the state and local building codes and fire marshal’s inspection, and which has not been plundered of all it’s valuables thanks to the local police department. I then log on to the internet which was developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration and post on freerepublic.com and Fox News forums about how SOCIALISM in medicine is BAD because the government can’t do anything right.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:Same thing with no soliciting, someone told me if they have a no soliciting sign its a illegal to knock on their door to sell stuff but I have doubts that its really true. It don't matter if it makes it illegal or not, all it really does is indicate the owner of the property probably ain't going to give you the time of day. When I was doing door to door sales awhile back I was somewhat thankful of getting a heads up I would be wasting my time.

On an anecdotal level, as someone who lives in the gulf coast, you can point out it is bad business sense long term. I've seen local business around price gouge after major storms. I also seen that same business shutter it's doors months later when things have settled back down because we don't forgot you hosed us. But really just walk away calling them assholes is best practice.
