We’re talking about the problem of tipping culture and complaints about being expected to tip too much. If you live in a country that pays waitstaff well, then this conversation isn’t about you. You can self select based on context clues.
Tipping culture sucks. You and I agree on that. Servers should be paid decent wages, and tipping should be optional.
That ain’t the system we got, though. And you don’t change the system by abusing the victims of the system.
Did someone say this, or did you imagine it? 20% is standard for good service, but anything less than 15% is message that there was something wrong with the service. If you cannot afford to pay for good service, you should not seek good service.
They covered the Epstein files and nobody had any consequences.
If I press the brake, it should brake. ABS systems work well, but otherwise there should not be any logic built into not braking when I want to brake. Add all the automation into braking for me if there is an imminent collision detected. Extra braking is good. Less braking than I have asked for is bad.
One nation, indivisible…
Hold up, can we squeeze some division in there to make it clear we’re not one nation?
How else do you think they stay on?
Ok, you’re ill-informed.
Considering we only know it’s there because it slightly dims the light from its star as it crosses during its orbit, you would be correct. At that distance, we would never see light bouncing off the actual planet. Even the star is basically a single pixel. We can estimate its size and orbit based on how quickly it crosses in front of the star and how much the light dims, and using those two numbers we can estimate its distance from Kepler 452.
It’s not even as good as it used to be. The quality of the buns and the chicken have dramatically changed. Even the pickles are worse than they used to be. Their sodas have always been mostly ice, and the quality of the waffle fries has always been location dependent. How hasn’t another chain taken over their market share?
Orders to commit war crimes are invalid and do not need to be followed.
I love my dog, but I’ve never had to clean potato vomit out of a carpet at 3 am.
My theory was that he dipped out of the GOP spotlight to plan his return post-Trump and play the part of the reasonable conservative.
Sure, take your pick. I like the school comparison because it’s easier to visualize. But you’re right, spending at the federal level would be more distributed across all programs.
Each one costs as much as a state of the art high school, including 1 year of teacher salaries. That’s 16 districts that could have had better education, and maybe we would have smarter voters, and maybe elect fewer shitbags.
People who don’t care to learn, but want to have an opinion. Doesn’t matter the topic, sports, movies, business, politics, science, every asshole wants you to listen to their half-brained, malformed thought prions, and then insist that it’s disrespectful to point out flaws in their “reasoning.” I don’t mind people being disengaged. It’s a big world, and nobody is an expert in everything. But respect is earned, and being an expert entitles you to an opinion. Everyone else should shut the fuck up.
I have a slow drain so the shower ends up with a shallow puddle by the end. So, no, I don’t like standing in a puddle of my own pee.
But otherwise, pipes is pipes. No judgement here.
Oh, man, that sounds like a lot.
Then this conversation isn’t about you. Many places have exceptions to minimum wage for tipped employees. That, plus tip-out policies means that serving a customer that doesn’t tip can actually cost the server money.
