In this bit10 moments
  • Tim had lunch at Yard House in Rancho Mirage and praises their tuna ahi poke nachos and crab cake sandwich.
  • He's been critical of gastropubs but admits some craft brew houses do it right when the food is good.
  • Dickey's Barbecue Pit in Rancho Mirage is running a human trafficking ring, according to Tim.
  • Tim complains about Postmates restaurants claiming to be closed minutes after he ordered, undercutting the claim they're actually shut down.
  • Drug store employees now use COVID as an excuse to barely help customers find items like ear drops instead of walking them to the product.
  • Tim wonders whether withholding vaccines from workers with poor performance attitudes might be a solution to improve service.
  • He had water trapped in his inner ear from the pool and needed ear drops, but got only a vague pointer to aisle seven.
  • The lack of pride and basic service at Ride Aid in Palm Desert bothers him, and he thinks performance-based vaccine access might change behavior.
  • The Yard House's crab cake was fat and the poke nachos were good but slightly light on the ahi, which he understands given reduced capacity during COVID.
  • Desert locals claim extreme heat is nothing, comparing 116 degrees to worse conditions they've experienced.
