In 1970, the median rent was $108 a month which about 68 hours of work at minimum wage
Today, the average 1 bedroom apartment costs $1,500 a month, about 207 hours at minimum wage
But it’s all because we waste money on coffee
A few things.
1. The server is unprofessional to call out a customer for not tipping
2. You may not agree with "tipping" but that doesn't change the reality that tipping is what allows restaurants to operate a wait staff without charging astronomical prices for the food. Restaurant margins are razor thin as it is.
3. Withholding a tip because you don't agree with tip culture doesn't do anything accept hurt your server who has nothing to do with the system. The store/chain got paid in full, they could care less about you withholding a tip.
Furthermore, you just let the entire wait staff of that restaurant know that you're not worth their time or effort and if they have a store manager who's worth a damn, he's going to look the other way when your food comes out late and cold after an hour wait on a busy night.
Then there's the fact that most restaurant staffers work multiple jobs and your reputation for not tipping on $100+ tabs will follow you to most restaurants in your area.
Especially now that you were dumb enough to post this on social media.
A timely Soviet joke:
A man comes to a newsstand every day, scans the front page, and leaves disappointed.
One day the vendor asks what he's looking for. The man says an obituary.
"But, Comrade, the obituaries are at the back." The man replies, "Not the one I’m looking for."
Things that Republicans no longer believe in.
1. Limited government
2. Citizen rights to protect themselves from a tyrannical government
3. States’ rights
4. Free market capitalism
5. Independent banking system
6. Reducing the federal debt and deficit
7. Freedom of religion
8. The 19th amendment
9. No new wars
10. American soft power
11. Respect for the Judiciary
12. NATO
This is why I’ve migrated as well. I despise the thought of any of my work being used to train machines to pump out low-effort slop. Come over to the better side:

Sad to see communities we artists built over many years crumbling, even more driven away by a technolunatic rocketboy's sick obsession with AI😢
I'm determined to weather the storm, but to all those friends who've had enough... find me on the other side! https://t.co/S57vg5UBUi
Back tf up for a a sec, Chad. You know how many snotty, disrespectful white boomers I've had to deal with when I worked in retail?
Also, I would've been fired if I called a customer ANYTHING when I got fed up with them. I bet you'd be one of those saying "get s better job" then.
"The Somalian customers were harassing her about not enough caramel & attacked her clothes!"
Yeah, I worked customer service before & got harassed, yelled at, threatened, etc over all sorts of shit. It never spurred me to use a racial slur.
Hi @DHSgov,
We’re the folks who reported the facts you’re now dismissing.
So just a reminder:
We found 170+ cases of immigration agents detaining U.S. citizens this year. In dozens of cases, charges have never been filed or the cases were dismissed.
Among the detained: nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.
