I keep meaning to split my main into AD and non-AD stuff.
If I just followed you and you don't know who I am, I'm @glirebunny! I'll be following you on this account now.
@spicymancer If you can find a place to post it where nobody else can see it that works for me! Like I have an AO3 collection that's locked, and I post new chapters there first, and that tricks my brain into revealing the errors.
@NexGenInsanity So it's like, defend your actions in the light of their context. *I* know you're not worth listening to. *You* do not. That's the whole purpose here.
@NexGenInsanity Well, because I have a point, is the thing. Checks out that you can't recognize one. Like, your entire online presence is telling people to calm down about stuff. You appear to have no well-examined beliefs you're actually willing to defend.
@NexGenInsanity Buddy, you accused the people you don't like of being children. Are you so fragile that you can't take even a fraction of what you try to dish out?
@NexGenInsanity The last topic you weighed in on was downplaying threats of mass deportation and the last tweet you sent that wasn't a reply was in July. Maybe you should care about, like, anything before opening your mouth.
@darginnn@idiotpeach And sometimes that's all that's available to people.
Let me put it this way. If it were possible to just up and change jobs from this level of precarity, don't you think people would have done so? If not, you're just blaming an entire class of worker for their own suffering.
@darginnn@idiotpeach The problem is when every job you can find also does this, because the laws permit it. It's not like just one restaurant does this. The precarity of some workers is that the availability of jobs in the area they qualify for and can do force them to accept shitty conditions.
@justalexoki No, I think you're correct. The problem is a lack of collective bargaining power by workers to make that happen. Bosses have the power to depress worker wages; failing to tip punishes the *workers* for this state of affairs. I would look at it as the boss scamming you.
@Ishansharma7390 The startup you're involved with has this in its pinned thread. Tipping *is* a scam, but one perpetrated by bosses on workers to avoid paying them. Workers are forced to treat every meal like the listed price is the upfront payment, and to hope you'll not renege on the rest.
1️⃣ Charge in advance ✅️
To avoid scams and frauds you should always charge partly in advance.
If the client trusts you then they'll never have a problem to pay a percentage in advance.
@BillowyTerra As someone whose experience with hypnosis is old enough to vote, let me pull rank and say fuck that noise on your behalf. If they're operating on the assumption that they understand someone they've never played with on the basis of demographic trends they're not flexible enough.
@pankenlewd Hey, nobody ever accused the macro Falco guy of being *boring*.
(This is not a veiled accusation of cringiness. That guy's self-actualized on a level I hope we all get to someday.)
