A virtual Thanksgiving community dinner! Post Pics!

Nico, the first driver on the list, has loaded her 12 orders, and is carefully checking the bag labels against her order list to make sure there is no mistake.

Because all of the meals are pre-cooked, we cannot make many mistakes today: we only have so many spare rations pre-ordered. So we have made a slight change to our protocol: not only do we ask the drivers to triple check their order list at pickup time, but we are also asking them to try and verify, from at least 15 ft away, that the members actually do pickup the orders and that nothing is wrong.
