My bro

My brother has a restaurant in Los Angeles. When the pandemic hit they refocused their efforts on delivery. Business was so good for them that he had to deliver food in his personal vehicle.

Post Like Many Things

The deal is : assimilate or perish .

This is the clear example of a wise man who learns as he goes through life .

Might not be a good idea to deliver it before they order and PAY

The City of Bubbaville Beach picks up yard waste put in the street. Stuff grows fast here in Floriduh. So, that service is essential. We used to have to call to get our name on the list for pick-up. I called one time, and as I was hanging up the phone, the claw truck was grabbing up Putzer's prolific pile of pruned palm fronds (PPPPPF). He was already in the 'hood and picked up any yard waste he saw out.

I called the city back, and told them they needed to move that guy from the Trash Department to the Fire Department.

I didn't click on this thread for a while, figuring it'd be an obituary. I'm glad to see it was good news.
