| LabPartner's WaPo Subscription | |
| By: animaniactoo Date: January 17, 2025, 9:16 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| It was recently suggested to me that the forum fund should pick | |
| up the cost of Lab's WaPo subscription as his access and work to | |
| summarize the letters is why we have them available to discuss. | |
| As these are community funds, I am putting that to vote. | |

| I never really thought about it before, but I now think that I | |
| pay WAPO so that I don't have to learn how to use Paypal. | |
| Because if all y'all start paying my subscription, my second | |
| generation Polish-American Chicago Catholic guilt would require | |
| me to pay that much to the operating funds account here. That | |
| would require learning how to use Paypal. So ... | |

| Can we include a Times puzzles and games subscription in this | |
| deal as payment for his tireless services? | |

| I'm torn here. It sounds like Lab is uncomfortable with it, so | |
| we shouldn't push that, but I also think that oreally has a | |
| point that we should do something as payment for the consistent | |
| summary/posting of the columns. | |
| So torn. | |
| I vote to do whatever make LabPartner most comfortable. | |

| For the record, if you call WaPo before your subscription | |
| expires and ask for a promotional rate or if they have other | |
| discounts, they have (historically) granted it. I generally pay | |
| about $40 a year. Sometimes it's been as low as $19, but that | |
| was before 2020. I've never paid full price. | |
| The phone number is 202-334-6100. | |

| I voted YES, purchase Lab�s subscription. It�s the least we can | |
| do for the prompt and faithful service we receive daily. | |
| [member=46]LabPartner[/member] - I can�t word it as verbosely as | |
| CH or as snarkily as MM would, but I think their advice would be | |
| if somebody wants to do something nice for you to show their | |
| appreciation, let them and say, � Thank you for your kindness.� | |

| When I canceled my subscription they immediately offered a much | |
| lower rate. | |
| Also, just an FYI to Lab, I don't do PayPal but send cash to Ani | |
| directly with zelle. I know some people are reluctant to use it. | |
| I signed up for it with my bank and I only send money to people | |
| I know and I send it from my bank. Not through email. | |
