Internet in Awe at What Man Finds in Old Furnace

A Reddit user has revealed that his father had found over $40,000 in an old furnace, sending viewers on the platform into a spin.
The Reddit user, who goes by dmatson724 on the platform had shared the post on June 19. In it, they showed an image of several thick wads of cash that had been tied up with rubber bands and left in old tins.
"My father found over $40,000 inside an old furnace," the Reddit user said, quickly grabbing the attention of viewers online. The post has since been upvoted more than 116,000 times to date, sparking more than 5,400 comments in the process.
After being met with huge public interest, the Reddit user decided to share more details about the find in the comments section.
"No he's not the owner of the furnace, yes it's been returned to the owner, and yes there was a small reward," they said.
They added: "He was picking the furnace up for scrap when he laid it down the door opened and the tins fell out. We have zero connections to the owners of the money. What they do with it is their business. Stealing it was never considered. It's a weird situation to be in and he did what he thought was right. The $5 with the pink on it started in '08 so that is less than 17 years old but it may not have been placed there all at once. The money being placed differently may indicate that it did not all happen at once. Hard to say. Some of the tins are rusted at the bottom for those saying they look new."

The Reddit user went on to share that their "retirement aged father" was just trying to make a couple bucks to get by.
"This would have been life changing money for him but it's not his to keep," the Reddit user added. "He does not use the internet. He will not see your hate messages but I do and it is extremely uncalled for. It is easy to say what you would do if you were in situation but you are not."
Despite the Reddit user's attempt to spark peace, some of the comments that followed his update indicated that several users still believe the funds had not been placed with their rightful owner.
"Why yes! I did leave my cash hidden in the furnace! I almost forgot! Thank you for returning it to it's definitely true and rightful owner, me!" one viewer said.
"Exactly," another added. "Kind of doubt the person he returned it to was actually the original 'owner.' But they are now!"
"I really wish you didn't respond cause I would have said, no he didn't," a third viewer shared.
However, other users were much kinder, sharing lighthearted comments or poking fun at the find instead.
"Banks are too risky!" one viewer commented. "Stashes $40,000 in paper next to fire."
"Someone's Depression Era grandpa didn't trust banks," another added.

31 People Who — Bless Them — Were Way, Way, Way, Way, Way, Way Too Confused For Their Own Good
Reddit user u/deadmoby5 posed the question, "What was your 'Sir, this is a Wendy's' moment?" which prompted hundreds of people, including BuzzFeed Community members, to share their stories of clueless customers catching an attitude and people genuinely not having any idea what they were doing. I have so much secondhand embarrassment. Here's what they shared: 1."I work at a museum gift shop. I once had a lady come in asking to be seated for four people, thinking we were a restaurant famous for chicken dinners. I explained what we were, and she's looking for the place four doors down. She immediately got PISSED at me, saying I was hiding the chicken from her and that she was positive she ate here last year when they were in town (even though our museum had existed for about 40 years at this point, so that was not possible). It took her several minutes to leave, and even then, she still didn't believe that we weren't a chicken restaurant, despite having the word museum on our building and not a dead fried bird in sight." —thegassygoose 2."I used to work at a well-established paint-your-own-pottery studio with the word 'bakers' in the name — think, 'The Pottery Bakers.' Our windows were FILLED with pottery for sale, and the walls were lined with white bisque to be painted. A woman came in and asked: 'Do you have any baguettes?' Me: 'Baguettes?' Her: 'What else do you have?' I looked around at the full room of people in smocks painting pottery, then looked back at her. Her with bizarre urgency: 'Do you have any bread available?' Me: 'Ma'am, we are a pottery studio. We bake pottery. I do not have any bread.' The next day, she left us a one-star review claiming that our store name was deliberately misleading so that we could lure people in to visit under the 'false pretenses' of being a bakery of breads." —u/causa_sui 3."I worked at Sam's Club during the height of the pandemic. The toilet paper wars were raging, and every beef and pork product had been out of stock for days. I was the rotisserie chicken guy, so basically the only money-maker in the meat department. I was performing the never-ending grease cleaning routine that took up my time while the chickens cooked, and a dude in his 50s or 60s frantically came up to me and asked, 'WHAT SIZE UNDERWEAR AM I WEARING?!' Before I could respond, he turned around and flipped the elastic band of his tighty-whities at me. He was a medium. He thanked me and speed-walked toward the clothing section. I guess men's underwear was in danger of disappearing that day." —u/tuckerx78 4."When I was about 12 or 13, I saved up my allowance and neighborhood yard work money to finally afford the newest iPod, the one that could play videos as well. I wanted to make sure they had it at the store before I got my parents to drive me there, so I opened the phone book, found the Apple Store, and called them. Guy at Apple Store: 'Hello?' Me: 'Hi, do you have the iPod Video in stock?' Guy: ' is an apple store. crunch?' I had called the gift shop at an apple orchard." —u/GroggyWanderer Related: 5."Many years ago, I worked as a pharmacy tech for a big chain. One day, this lady came up to the counter and asked me if I could help her. She reached into her purse, grabbed a bag, and opened it for me to see. I looked in and saw a bag full of bugs — many dead, but a few moving. She goes on to tell me that she 'found' these bugs in her car, home, food, hair, and inside her (whatever that means). I quickly realized this was above my pay grade, so I called my pharmacist for a consultation. I hid and eavesdropped on their conversation. My pharmacist told her we're a pharmacy, and she needed to call an exterminator." —u/TenLate 6."When I worked at McDonald's, someone came in and demanded steak. It was a McDonald's. He demanded to see a manager, who helpfully informed him this was a McDonald's. 'I can get steak at Taco Bell!' he claimed. Then go to Taco Bell?" —u/joy3111 7."I worked at Best Buy. I was part of Geek Squad, with a counter adjoining Customer Service, and I heard this whole thing go down. A lady comes in irate about her laptop being slow (it's a netbook, so yeah, it sucks). Our CS manager is there, and she's going through the ringer trying to find this lady's receipt. She checked every card, every name, every phone number. Finally, CS is like, 'If you know the day you bought it, I can search the cash receipts, but it would have to be from this store.' The lady goes, 'Oh, I didn't buy it here.' CS says, 'OK, which Best Buy did you get it from?' The lady says, 'I got it at Walmart.' CS says, 'You can't return something you bought at Walmart to Best Buy.' The lady goes, 'What do you mean? You're the same store!'" —venkmanphd 8."I worked in an ice cream shop when I was 16/17, and I had a lady scream at us, demanding a refund because her ice cream was melting too fast. She had ordered hot fudge on it." —u/fuzzbeebs 9."I work for a CPA office in an office park with a couple of doctors' offices. One day, a guy came in, only speaking Spanish, so I grabbed my Spanish-speaking colleague to translate. He talked to the guy in the lobby for a few minutes, then the guy left, and my coworker came back and asked if that was a joke or if we put someone up to that. Apparently, the guy explained that his testicles were extremely swollen and painful. He was looking for one of the doctors' offices and just walked into the first building in the complex. Sir, we do taxes here, not testicles." —u/AlternativeAcademia 10."A guy came into my liquor store and asked if we could help change his tire. We didn't change his tire, and he left one real angry online review." —u/Bog2ElectricBoogaloo 11."Had a guy come into my place of work, ticked off because he issued his payment date and had to pay extra to turn his phone back on. He said something along the lines of, 'It was due at midnight, and y'all aren't open at midnight, so how was I supposed to pay?' I calmly explained that we are open until 7:00 p.m. every day but Sunday, and he screamed, 'Well, unlike you, I actually have a job!' At my job. Whilst doing my job." —u/lordgabe92again Related: 12."I worked in a national park. I was asked when we turn the geysers on. I was also asked when we let the bears out for viewing. Ma'am, this isn't an amusement park." —u/IntoTheMystic8 13."My brother was working at Chick-fil-A in the drive-thru. A guest asked for a Whopper with cheese. My brother said, 'Ma'am, this isn't a Burger King. We only have chicken sandwiches.' She started screaming at him and asked why he couldn't just make it. He told her they didn't have beef anywhere in the store. She wouldn't take no for an answer, and the manager had to come out." –u/Accomplished_Cow_662 14."A woman came into our store and asked where the carrots were. We thought maybe it was a new brand we hadn't heard of yet, so we asked her to clarify. 'Carrots, like for cooking,' she said. I wonder what part of walking into an electronics store and seeing computers everywhere made her go, 'Yeah, this store definitely has produce somewhere.'" —u/s317sv17vnv 15."This barbershop in my local mall closed down and was replaced with a place that sold stained glass lamps and figurines/mini fountains. My husband did not realize this and still insisted on entering the shop and asking for a haircut, even though you could clearly see it was no longer a barber shop, and I told him as much. He thought the barber chairs must just be in the back, and the front of the store was just a gift shop, for some reason. I refused to enter the store with him on this quest, out of embarrassment, and now, 10 years later, it's still something we laugh about. He's never done anything like that before or since, so I don't know what switch turned off in his brain in that moment." —jainelaine 16."When I worked for a Verizon call center, I used to have so many of these stories. The only one I can remember is when it took me over five minutes to convince a man that I could do nothing about power lines being down near his house. He apparently even had a separate landline service that did actually run lines in his neighborhood, but no, he was adamant that his cellphone carrier could just get that fixed. People also somehow believed that all tech support lines are the same, and seemed disappointed that we couldn't help them fix major appliances." "The weirdest things I get now are the occasional people convinced that a pharmacy located in a grocery store can sell them mobility power chairs or just give them antibiotics without a prescription. Maybe somewhere in the world, my guy, but that's literally never been a thing in the US medical system." —jeffg4c54ea76d Related: 17."I had someone call my fire station and ask us to come fill up her pool. Her: 'I need you to come and fill up my pool, please.' Me: 'Uh, ma'am, we do not do that. We are a fire department.' Her: 'Well, who am I supposed to call to have my pool filled up? You guys have the water trucks.' Me: 'I am not totally sure, ma'am, but once again, we are a fire department. Our fire engines use their water for emergencies, not to fill pools.' Her: 'Well, my taxes pay for your salary and vehicles, so you need to come fill up my pool!' Me: 'I am sorry, but we cannot do that. Have a good day, ma'am.' It was ridiculous and hilarious. I could not believe the entitlement!" —u/OneHornyReddit 18."I work as a law clerk for a judge, and a scammer called my chambers, doing the classic 'I'm trying to reach the property owner for blah blah blah because you might be entitled to a government tax rebate.' I responded: 'This is the 15th Division of the First Circuit Court. You know that, right?' He hung up immediately." —u/Rodby 19."I was an associate working in the Cracker Barrel store, and a woman came in and was interested in one of our lamps. It was $100. She offered me $30 for it, and I told her I could only sell it at the ticketed price. She offered to go up to $50. I told her again that I could only sell it at the ticketed price. Her response: 'You need to be willing to negotiate. That's how flea markets work.' And then I had to explain, politely because she was a customer, that we were a regular retail store and not, in fact, a flea market. It took more explaining than it should have. She did not buy the lamp." —u/MidnighyAmethyst23 20."While working at Ulta, there was a guy in the store for, like, 10 minutes waiting while I tried to find something his girlfriend had put on hold, only to realize he meant to go to the shoe store next door. Until I asked him what his girlfriend had wanted and he said, 'Shoes,' he never once stopped to think about the fact that there was nothing even remotely resembling a shoe for sale in the entire store." —u/TarMiriel 21."I worked at Walmart for a long time in the hardware department. I once had a customer call asking if we sold toilets. I said, 'Like, toilet seats?' He said, 'No, like actual toilets.' So I said, 'Sorry, we just sell the seats and replacement parts — no porcelain.' He got all huffy and said, 'Jesus, what is this place? Walmart??' I paused momentarily and said, 'Yes, sir, it is.' Silence for a long moment. Then, he said, in a little voice, 'This isn't Home Depot?' 'No, sir, you called Walmart.' 'Oh crap, I am so sorry!' He hung up. I laughed my butt off." —u/StarBabyEleven 22."Had a guy INSIST that I made his sweet teas wrong yesterday. He said he had the cups from the day before to prove it. I work at Starbucks. This man pulls up to my window and confidently sets down two half-full McDonald's sweet teas. Sir, this is a Starbucks." —u/siouxxsiee 23."I was sitting in the waiting lounge of the service department at my car dealership getting an oil change when a red-faced man THREW the door open and stormed up to the service desk. He immediately started shouting and swearing about how he was sick and tired of the dealership and their crappy ways. He said: 'If I had known what a terrible business this was, I would've never bought a Volkswagen. I'm sorry I ever bought it.' The service advisor looked at him and said, 'The VW dealership is next door. This is a NISSAN dealership.' The man stood there for a second, processing. Then, he just let out a ROAR and ran out the door. Everyone looked at each other with wide eyes." —u/Javaman1960 24."I worked at a gas station when I was 19. People called to ask about the lottery, gas prices, etc. I always said the same thing when I answered, to make sure they knew which of our locations they had called, because there were quite a few nearby, and people got them mixed up. 'Thank you for calling [gas station] in [town]. My name is [name]. How can I help you today?' The phone rings. I recite my lines. The person asked, 'What do I need to get a library card?' I was perplexed, but I had literally just gotten one a week earlier, so technically, I did know. 'Um, I mean, when I got mine, I needed to show ID, but then I also needed a current piece of mail to reflect my current address.' A pause, as she recognized my confusion. 'Is this not the library in [town 45 MINUTES AWAY]?' 'No, this is a gas station.'" —ghcstxbcy Related: 25."I worked to-go at Ruby Tuesday, and countless people came in yelling about their food. These were my favorite two: 1. A man was PISSED we didn't have his food ready and just immediately started yelling at me. I politely asked what he ordered and said I'd get it ready ASAP. He started listing menu items we don't have, and on a hunch, I said, 'Did you mean to go to Applebees?' He said, 'Yeah. Where am I?' 'Not Applebees,' I said. 2. A guest was mad about their order, which we didn't have any record of, and swore up and down that they spoke to someone on the phone to confirm. I asked for the phone number he called to confirm. He called a city in Colorado with the same name. We were in Maryland. Neither one apologized." —google_118227220763140986694 26."A lady I used to work with was sent to go get breakfast for the office. She was told to go to McDonald's and get a bunch of sausage biscuits or something. She goes through the drive-thru and orders. The price was over $100, and she didn't think that was quite right, so she finally put it together that she was not, in fact, at McDonald's. She was at Starbucks. She never goes to Starbucks as it is, but they were also pretty far apart and don't look even remotely similar. It was pretty funny." —jelyselauren 27."I used to work for Kmart. Someone came into the store and wanted to know where the pet department was located. We only had one aisle of pet items, and it was mostly items for dogs and cats (food, litter, toys, etc.). I took the customer to the aisle, and they said, 'This is it? This is all you have for pet supplies? You don't have an actual department, like other stores?' I said, 'Yes, sir. We just carry the basics. If you need a bigger selection, there is a Pet Supplies Plus located at the other end of the plaza.' The customer got upset and said, 'But if I wanted to go to Pet Supplies Plus, I would have gone there. But I wanted to go to Kmart. So, I'm guessing you don't have fish food or anything like that?' I showed him the same selection of fish food, and he got upset." "He then started asking for advice on fish tanks, and again, I directed him to the Pet Supplies Plus that was located just a couple of storefronts down from Kmart. When he insisted on not going to that store, I gave him directions to two other pet stores in the area. Eventually, he left, but not before saying, 'This is why Kmart is going out of business!' Sure, buddy, the lack of a pet department is the sole reason Kmart is going out of business." —u/DannyC990 28."I was working at McDonald's, and this lady said, 'Can I get the Wendy's 4 for 4?' I said, 'Ma'am, this is a McDonald's,' and without a moment's hesitation, she replied, 'Indeed it is. Can I get a Big Mac?'" —u/lukemercer 29."I used to work at Ulta, and I had someone get super upset that I couldn't sell them a Sephora gift card. Even after explaining in multiple ways that we were two different companies, they were convinced I was just refusing them because I could. It was bizarre." —u/TarMiriel 30."My husband asks for a Whopper every time we go to Whataburger, and it never fails to crack me up. 💀 I just let him do it too because it is so genuine and I love hearing them say they don't do Whoppers there, LOL." —kimbabe20 "I was in Lowe's one morning right after they opened. A woman at the service desk was having a complete meltdown, yelling and screaming because Lowe's didn't have a licensed contractor there at the store for her to hire. She apparently woke up that morning and decided she needed a deck that same day, and she thought she could just go to Lowe's and have someone start building a deck immediately. It was dead, so I stood with the cashier listening to the show. They had to call the police to get her to leave." —u/DasGoat Have you ever witnessed (or had your own) "Sir, this is a Wendy's" moment?

15 Stories By People Who Slept With Someone They Shouldn't Have
Recently, I came across a Reddit thread where user u/tellmeanon1 asked "Who is someone you have slept with that no one can ever know?" The stories had my jaw on the floor. Here's what people said: "I slept with my father's fiancée. It was a long time ago, and she's no longer alive, but I'm still not telling." "I slept with my college professor. Not once, but twice. Two different professors. They were both married. I should also mention—I'm a lesbian. They were females married to men at the time. One was an excellent hook-up; the other was okay. I've never told anyone due to my being actively in both of their classes at the time. What a time to be alive." "I slept with my stepsister. Let's call her Jennifer. Jennifer was the daughter of my dad's second wife, from her first marriage. We were adults, there was alcohol involved, but it was still good." "I slept with my mother-in-law. I was separated from my wife at the time, and she, my MIL, asked if I could paint her apartment. She would pay me, and I agreed. It was a three-day job, and I lived on the other side of town, so it was agreed that I would stay over. It was summer and really hot, and I worked in just shorts while she was hanging around in next to nothing. She was a widow, she wasn't a bad sort, and we had drinks at the end of the day. Anyhow, we slept together. She was better than her daughter." "Well, I slept with my 'first cousin' at my grandmother's funeral. But it's okay because my mom and her sister were both adopted from an orphanage, so we aren't actually blood-related. She was cute, and I was sleeping around a lot in those days. We hadn't seen or even spoken to each other since we were young. We just laughed when we saw each other at my grandfather's funeral. Of course, we hooked up that time too. A couple of years ago, my brother died, and she was there—ready—but I didn't have it in me." "I slept with my Year 10 English teacher 10 years later, after a school reunion. She was married. In an awkward and interesting plot twist, her youngest child and my eldest were in the same grade 1 class years later. I met her husband at a Father's Day thing at the school. I can't imagine the look on her face when he told her he'd met one of her former students." "I slept with my best friend's sister. I used to spend the night often at my best friend's house since he had a pool, hot tub, trampoline, and super cool parents who didn't really care what we did. One weekend, I got up in the middle of the night to get some water, and I received a text from her asking if it was me in the kitchen. I said yes, and she responded, 'Come to my room, I need to tell you something.' I went into her room, and we started talking. That evolved into making out, then to her going down on me. It went on for a long time and eventually evolved into having sex every time I went over. We did it for years, and my buddy never knew." "I slept with my best friend's twin sister. Twenty-two years ago, I rented a room in their house, and she worked the afternoon shift, so she'd get home around 10 p.m. She would come into my room, and we would do literally everything other than intercourse because I was a 'gentleman' and didn't want to take her virginity. To this day, it was still the best head I've ever had." "I slept with my wife's twin sister, 15 years before she became my wife. Yes, they are identical. I slept with her sister in high school and married my wife in our 30s. I did not cheat on my wife. My wife and her twin hate each other and barely speak these days for completely unrelated reasons. Their relationship was shattered long before I even started dating my wife. My wife does not know and hopefully never will. Their personalities are night-and-day different. My wife—let's call her A—is quiet and reserved, smart and classy. Her twin—let's call her B—is wild, loud, and outgoing. I knew them both in high school as friends. I wanted to date my wife in high school for personality reasons, but she was dating my friend. I was at a party with drinks and recreational drugs when I hooked up with her sister. It was a one-time thing, and we were both messed up." "A coworker once bragged to me that he was sleeping with his wife's sister. His reason? 'She does everything my wife won't do.'" "I slept with my ex-girlfriend's younger sister. My ex and I broke up near the end of 2012 and we have always remained friends and stayed in touch. Whenever we are both single, we casually hook up a few times every couple of years, and it has never affected our friendship. In 2019, I was hanging out with both her and her sister at a karaoke bar, and my ex left. The younger sister and I drank a little too much, and she ended up taking me home. It was amazing. We started seeing each other for five months, a few times a week. We both knew it was forbidden fruit, though, and eventually stopped. I then casually went back to sleeping with my ex here and there." "I slept with my best friend's wife. I mean, we all know. It happened before they met. As a matter of fact, my friend and I were roommates at the time—he met her when she was leaving one morning. But we've all just decided to forget it ever happened." "I slept with my mom's best friend. They'd been friends for, like, 10 years. For reference, I'm 24. We were drinking one night, and out of nowhere, she told me she was a squirter. That was, in fact, my first squirter." "My junior year in college (1991), two of my friends had been dating since freshman year. One day, they got into a big fight and broke up. A couple of days later (Friday night), she showed up at my apartment with a bottle of rum, saying she needed someone to talk to. My roommate was out of town for the weekend, and a few rum and cokes later, we were naked and shagging. She didn't leave until Sunday afternoon, and we spent the entire weekend fooling around. They got back together a few days later. We never told anyone, and we're all still friends to this day. They're married now with two adult children." And finally, "I slept with a customer AND his dad, after I sold them the son's first car. I was 22 at the time. Son was 18 and in his freshman year of college. Dad came in, picked out the car. I took the son on a test drive without the dad. Son immediately started flirting with me. He texted me later that night and asked me to go to his dorm. I went and we hooked up on and off for about three months. I called his dad a few days later to thank him for the business. He came by a week later and told me he would like to take me out. I went out with dad several times. To this day, I still can't decide which one of them was better." Who is someone you slept with that no one can ever know about?

Ice Maker on the Rocks? Here Are the Common Issues and Easy Fixes
The unfortunate reality of owning a refrigerator with an ice maker is that it can fail, which is not ideal during warmer weather. On the bright side, ice makers are also relatively simple machines that, for the most part, all operate the same way. Whether you need that iced coffee hit in the morning or are hosting a cookout at night, you may be able to diagnose and repair a faulty ice maker yourself without forking over cash for an expensive service call. It can take a lot of trial and error to find the right fix for your ice maker, as a recent Reddit thread illustrates. Here's how to fix some common ice maker problems. When ice is not ejecting If you find ice inside the ice mold, it means your ice maker is receiving water and the problem likely isn't with the water supply. Instead, it's most likely a mechanical or electrical problem. Cause: When moving things around in the freezer, it's not uncommon to accidentally nudge the control arm into the off position, which halts production of ice. Fix: This is an easy fix. Locate the metal control arm and move it to the down or on position. Cause: If the control arm is in the on (down) position and the mold is filled with ice, the problem likely lies with the motor, gearbox or electrical connection. Fix: Start by making sure all electrical connections are properly seated. Slide the refrigerator out from the wall, turn off the water supply valve and disconnect it from power. Locate the quick release plug on the back wall inside the freezer. Unplug the connection and reconnect it to ensure it's fully connected. Manually remove any remaining ice from the mold by adding some water and letting it sit for a minute. The ice will begin to melt and should be easier to remove. Restore power to the refrigerator and lift the control arm to the off position. Lower the control arm back down and wait for approximately 10 seconds for the solenoid to engage and fill the mold with water. Wait three to four hours for the ice to freeze and see if the ice now ejects. If not, it's likely that you will need to replace the motor or gearbox. When it's not making ice at all If your ice maker isn't producing ice at all or is producing crescents or cubes that are smaller than usual, it's typically indicative of a clog somewhere along the supply line. Cause: A common cause for a clog is frozen water in the line. Fix: To repair a frozen line, slide the refrigerator and unplug it. Locate the shut-off valve, typically underneath the sink or behind the refrigerator. Turn the valve to the closed or off position. Fill a turkey baster with warm water and pour the water over the water line. Alternatively, you can defrost the water line with a hair dryer or by letting the refrigerator sit unplugged for upward of two hours. Restore power to the refrigerator and listen for the water supply to fill the ice mold. If the clog is anything but translucent, consult with a professional for help removing the clog. Cause: There is also a possibility that the water filter for the ice maker is clogged. Fix: Locate and replace the water filter. Filters for ice makers are typically located inside the refrigerator (to keep them from freezing). When cubes are too big or small Cause: If the ice crescents are too big or there is no clog and they're still too small, chances are, the ice maker just needs a little adjustment. Fix: To adjust how much water the ice mold is filled with each cycle, first remove the cover from the ice maker. It's the white plate on the frontmost part of the ice maker assembly and it should pull off rather easily. If you're having difficulty removing it, use a flat head screwdriver to gently pry it away from the housing. Under the cover, you should see a screw and spring assembly, along with a plus and minus indicator. This controls the dosing for water. Screw in (toward the minus symbol) to decrease the amount of water per dose and out (toward the plus) to increase the amount of water per dose.
