    Or treat the employees well. I've noticed several places I go become more generous when you're a known tipper, and don't explode over minor issues. Oh, and don't demand/beg extras for free. Of course, this takes time, as the workers start to recognize you on sight, and whatnot.
    got it right in one try.

    YES delivery drivers know who the heros AND the ZEROS are. all of the drivers at my store know the addresses of who is who.

    The other night I had one of my last deliveries was to a "well-known" room in a nursing facility. the next night all I had to say to a fellow driver was I got 123ed and he knew exactly WHO and where I was talkiing about.

    tip me well and I WILL remember you, your spouse, your dog, your kids, etc.

        What frightens me is you recognize the smell of embalming fluid

        I have no idea what that smells like and don't wanna know.

        I did AN101 (anatomy) at uni.

        Enough said.

        2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
        3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
        4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

              She wouldn't happen to know the Old Man Down the Road, would she?

                She smelled like embalming fluid, had it not been daytime I would have thought she was the walking dead.
                well.... iirc women are taking over somewhat as undertakers. it's the whole "feminine touch" aspect to funerals, vs having the ancient men who look like the CryptKeeper.
