>it's not beneath what Apple or Google would do in their position.

Explain.


Based on their previous behavior in the marketplace, Apple and Google aren't above refusing to sell something they once sold if it's not in their own best interests to continue selling it.


There's a tip field? Is there a "shipping cost"? If there's both, that is a full stop for me. This will push Amazon's pricing above local pricing for me. Amazon wants me to willingly add 10-15% to my purchase price? Come on.


Tip is optional and you can change your tip amount within 48 hours of delivery. I'm not sure if drivers can see what the customer tipped during the delivery but in case you feel that they might do a shitty job because of no tip you can just add a tip and then change it to 0.

With that being said I'm also not feeling the whole tip thing because the wages should cover all that.


>I just know what my priorities are, and I'm not willing to pretend you are one just because you'd like me to.

That's what having good social skills is.


I wouldn't say you had bad basketball skills just because you have better things to do than play the game with me.

There are people who are a priority to me, and they seem to like my social skills just fine. And if someone wants that out of me, they aren't going to get there by telling me I have poor social skills or that I don't smile enough. That's burning your bridges, and not an example of someone in a position to offer criticism.


If you refused to ever play basketball, I WOULD say you have bad basketball skills. You can only have skills if you play.


I do play, just not when you want me to.


You are contradicting yourself.

If you stop playing basketball halfway through a game, and your rationale is "I do what I want, not what you guys want" you have _both_ poor basketball skills _and_ bad social skills.


I think your analogy is being taken too far and is starting to unravel.


So Michael Jordan now has bad basketball skills?

abstaining from something doesn't make someone bad at it....that's just not logical.


Explain, please.


Perhaps he read "pure water" as "pure H2O"?
