TF Views

It's clear that Devy isn't intended to be a "played with" toy but a display piece. Still, I'm curious as to the combined form's articulation.

DAAAAANG! NYC is expensive, that same meal is $5.50 here in LA, and it's NOT a bargain. When I do those mystery shops I have to scan them my receipts so they know what to reimburse me. I've actually had to argue with them that, no, I didn't doctor the receipts and yeah, with tax it comes out to jus...

In college I took a side-gig called mystery shopping where I got paid to go to stores and restaurants, pretend to be a regular customer and secretly time and evaluate the store. Doing mcdonalds mystery shops was kind of the entry level thing and I still grab them if I know I'll be downtown near one ...
