I love how the guy is blaming minimum wage workers, who have no control over prices, than the mega corporation that used the raising of minimum wage to raise prices across the board.

Fwiw, egg prices did come down after the last shortage..... But not back down to pre-shortage levels.

It looks like egg sellers took a page out of airline companies. Jack up the price. There is outrage. Lower prices a few weeks apart until it's at a point that is larger than when you started but people seem to be okay with.

It was in reference to the fact that Trump, while president, says he "met with the "President of the Virgin Islands"

Which, despite his press room's spin, we all know he completely didn't know that he was the president of the Virgin Islands.

Except me. Right? He totally promised to make me president of Puerto Rico.

Because I'm one of the good ones.

I'm the exception.

Right?

I'll believe corporations are people when they kill one via lethal injection.

I think you're underestimating how much MAGA Republicans are willing to bite their own noses off to spit at minorities.

They will, maybe reluctantly, give up social security, Medicare, any many of the social programs they benefit from if it allows them to hate Mexicans/Cubans/trans people more.

My main reason for using an app for Walgreens anyway is so I don't have to log in each time. When I go to refill my prescriptions, I'm usually in a hurry and just want to do it and move on. Refill usually takes maybe 4-5 clicks? And often less than 2-3 minutes.

Whereas on the website, between logging in and finding the medications, it's a much more involved process and I often need to use a computer to navigate it.

Oddly enough the CVS mobile website is pretty streamlined so I often don't need the app for it. And their mobile site supports passkeys whereas Walgreens doesn't.

The CVS app is my favorite example of this. Their app (at least on Android) is a fucking browser.

Walgreens is an actual app and works the way you expect it to.

Look into the benefits offered by your other credit cards. My identity was stolen a few years ago and I learned like a few months ago that one of my credit cards offers free identity protection services if/when your identity gets stolen.

They handle all of the annoying shit like contacting the bank, getting the debt off of your credit card, etc.

If not, and you were part of the Equifax (or any) hack, you likely have this same service available to you for free.

Is there cumin in that barbeque sauce?

There is rarely a situation where you should allow your employer to match the offer you have in hand.

They had the opportunity to do so and then failed to properly retain you. If they realize how much losing you will cost them in productivity, that's on them, not you.

It's not personal. It's literally business.

I know you're kidding but unfortunately student loans can't be transferred. They only die upon death.
