USPS/Fedex/UPS don’t share location, name or photo and you don’t see a lot of them getting shot. I drove for Amazon for 6 months or so. Most people know when they are expecting a delivery, especially from Amazon.

There is absolutely no way sharing a photo of the driver would increase safety for anyone. Anyone shooting at the pizza guy at the wrong house or teens turning around in the wrong driveway aren’t going to pay attention to a photo.

Amazon should, IMO, return back to an estimated delivery window. It is more than the other big delivery companies offer already.

Is it common for your delivery driver to knock on your door and hand deliver your package? Standard for Amazon is customer requested location and a photo. There are some exceptions, but those packages wouldn’t be given (typically) to the individual Flex drivers.

UPS/Fedex/USPS drivers don’t share their location or a photo/name. Those systems have been working well in that manner for a century.

All Amazon drivers are contracted. The Prime drivers you see are working for Amazon DSPs. The ones in their own cars are doing the same thing without the middle man- less packages, better pay, but no guarantees and no benefits provided.

All Amazon drivers are contracted, check out Amazon DSP. We also use the Flex app. Your location, even as a Flex driver, is on a delay. Unless you are having to take 10+ minutes at a stop, it will never reveal your current location. Even my DSP couldn’t get my exact location until I had been stationary for some time.

As a former Amazon driver, ain’t nobody got time to knock on your door and wait for you to answer/receive your package.

I delivered hundreds of packages a day and, maybe, interacted with 2/3 people, and typically because they were outside when I pulled up.

Standard delivery for Amazon is customer requested location and a photo.

I’m glad to hear you are off the opioid train. Have lost family members to it and my father is currently been on them for years. I tried to get him on the THC train, he even has a medical card, but he claims to not like the effects. I live in a recently legal state so I’m waiting until I can show him a store with a wide variety to try. I know there is some strain that will help with his pain and suffering without the effects he didn’t like.

I’m pro AI at this point. Any use it has in the real world have and will continue regardless if AI art somehow gets restricted. AI is choosing who gets jobs, doing the work previously done by humans, and companies will continue this trend.

Being able to create art that is good and makes someone money is already a 1% kinda thing (I don’t mean money-wise, I mean just the ability to earn money as an artist at all). If we can’t save the rest of humanity, artists are just going to have to join us.

The “gateway” drug thing was taught to me through DARE in the 90s. But has been confirmed propoganda for decades. Calling Cannabis (marijuana is not the proper name) a “gateway” drug is like saying water or air are “gateway” drugs. Sure, a crack head has probably smoked weed, but that isn’t what got them into crack.

I would guess that these materials are, either, very old or they categorize cannabis differently because it is so common. It doesn’t help that it is illegal in half the country and legal in the other half. So any state with cannabis not, at least, decriminalized will still have the talking points for the 1930s.

Tryna strike a chord and it’s probly A MINOR

This man’s rape conviction has ruined his life, that is punishment enough. -A lot of judges apparently

Cut to this man being hired at another department while he under house arrest. He gets work release and bam, rapist cop back out on the street, even while on probation.

I don’t think they should, TBH. Sony needs the reminder that this was a giant mistake. HD2 is already a successful game with extremely positive reviews from before the PSN issue. Now that we know the HD2 dev was not included in the decision to require PSN, not many still hold a grudge against Arrowhead.

If they hold to their promise going forward, the reviews will start coming down/changing. Let’s just see how they deal with Ghosts of Tsushima release.

I recently endured a job search. Applied to over 400 positions on Indeed alone. I stopped filling out the forms. Probably lost out on some job opportunities, but having to fill this shit out 30 times a day is not worth the effort.

In this particular situation, Harambe was causing harm to the child, more of a curiosity but with a very strong and less dexterous creature. I don’t think a wild animal should be held accountable for being themselves. So his death is still bullshit.

There is another example of a child falling into a gorilla enclosure and a female gorilla protected the child from the other gorillas until the zoo staff arrived.

Most males in the animal kingdom are, at best, indifferent to children of other males/species. At worst, they actively kill babies from other males.

I didn’t realize protesting required a school ID.

This looks like what Asmongold’s community did in the Pax Dei alpha last week.

Ghettos of WW2 are making a comeback, who’s forcing people into those ghettos will SHOCK you!

Yeah, still bad. The difference now is that basically 90% of the lines in the prequel movies have been turned into memes.

I’m really loving Manor Lords but my first “good” playthrough is coming to an end and I’ll take a break until more content is added. Once you learn all of the game mechanics, building a thriving economy is really easy.

I picked up the game for $30, it will keep getting better, and some day I’ll have an amazing game that I got for pretty cheap. This isn’t my first early-access experience, and most of the games I’ve gotten have been a success. Subnautica, Oxygen Not Included, The Forest, Astroneers. Im sure there are more on that list, just a few off the top of my head.

I don’t much care about the semantics. It isn’t just one person making the game, but it is one persons vision and it is a good one.

Just drop the pronouns. Super easy, doesn’t change based on who your are speaking to, and just saying Thanks or Thank You is 1000x better than your average retail customer.
