  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

My old person trait is that I think 'ghosting' is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

I will always be horrified when your local mom n pop shop expects you to say your credit card and security pins out over the phone.

These days larger companies have terminals that accepts keyboard input, still not ideal but much better than saying it out.

This is one reason why I’d rather get delivery from DD/GH/UE instead of calling for delivery (if it’s even offered)…I don’t want to give my credit card over the phone.

I’d much rather do it through an established app/storefront (I.e. Square or Toast).

That, and anxiety. I really don’t want to talk about my pizza. Much rather press a button.
