A lot of the professional proposal pics you see tend to be staged AFTER the initial proposal. Typically the surprise happens and the photographer would capture candids. Then afterwards they re run the proposal and do staged pics.

As a DoorDash customer we put them on our "DoorDash black list" to remind ourselves never to order from there again, because it always takes incredibly long, dasher gets stuck there forever and I get filled with guilt for the reasons you describe, and the order is always wrong anyway.
I wonder if you were my dasher one of those times lol

Car jackings? Or theft of vehicles where people leave their key fobs inside?

I think you probably mean people who arrived way after you were served first, but yeah, that was exactly my experience. And it wasn't just me. There were at least two or three other people waiting for pre-orders, and we were all repeatedly ignored while the cashier rang out all the in-store customers first. I guess they just don't like people who order online. So you're right. Why do they even offer that option if they're just going to treat those customers like dirt? And the one employee I asked a question to was rude as heck. So, yeah, their overstuffed bland sandwiches ain't worth it. And you definitely shouldn't lose out on money because their service sucks.

Even so, it's a proposal. A friend with a phone would be sufficient IMO.
Anything professional is probably going to look staged.
(And, if she already knows it's happening and the whole thing is going to be staged... well, that's a super-dumb idea IMO.)

I stopped using plastic bags long before the ban. I also switched from the $40 bag swheat scoop to $6 bag wood stove pellets. Scoop into a small 5qt bucket then empty it into the garbage can in the garage. The wood pellets seemed to control any odors.

Daffy Dans was often a mess on Rt 9, those were golden times, JC had factory outlets too and of course Secaucus i the 80's.

I do agree with you. It’s insane how much the wedding industry charges for everything these days. But things like photography matter a lot especially for me as I like to have a high quality record of my favorite memories. It sucks that people take advantage of that mentality and charge insane prices. Capitalism I guess.

I have one, but it's cheaper and easier to scoop into a dog poop bag. Plus I get ones that will break down in the landfill relatively quickly.

To be fair these photos would be used at the wedding and for an album

If Mississippi were in the middle of the list, you'd be thinking "Good thing I checked; this list in an article on the internet is clearly flawed!"
That's another reason why you look for what you already know.
(Now that I think of it, that's probably what the authors of the list would have done; "if Mississippi's not last, then our scoring methodology must have a flaw...")

Just get them rockrooster rainproof boots. The grips do fine in the snow. Have had mine for the past 3 years, and they have yet to fail me.

I bought biodegradable dog poop bags for daily scooping. If it’s a dump day” of the full boxes, I use trash bags.

This place is legit. Their sandwiches are huge but they are very tasty so it's not just big for the sake of big.

Sounds like you’re referring to the cheap clay litter? That was like cement. I would never put any type of cat litter into the toilet.

Oh wow, now I know this is not just a doordash/Uber driver problem. As a Doordash driver, I refuse to pick up their food anymore. I doordashed there a couple of times and would have to wait FOREVER to get the food, and I was never acknowledged as well, while other customers who arrived way after me and ordered on the spot were taken care of. I would lose money because of them, having to wait so long. And the guys who work there are a**holes. I would think to myself, "If they hate doordash so much, why do they even have it?" But now I know they do it to regular customers too. And the food doesn't look that great imo.
Edit: Error-Changed the word "before" to "after."

I used to do this 20 yrs ago only with plastic coffee containers. The problem with this method is the litter would never dry out. So opening it 3 to 4 times a day to clean the box meant you get hit with the smell.

This. The first 20 min of any trip is just getting out of JC. OP, you’re not doing anything wrong. It’s such a pain getting in/out of this city.
