Sounds like you don't understand international politics. NATO is fucked if Trump gets in. If you're stupid, don't open your mouth

Lol. I've seen a video in China of something like this. It's a public restroom that requires you to watch an ad accessed by QR code in order to get toilet paper. The future!

They don't all come back out alive either!

That's no excuse. Scummy practices are scummy

No, rising prices of menu items increases tips as a proportion. If menu prices stayed the same and you want larger tip %, then sure. But not both. That's just greedy

Some cities require minimum wage paid toward service employees. This is about $20/hour before tips. They don't lower their tip expectations because, as you might expect, greed is a thing. You will get treated worse if you don't tip

I mean, the city I live in requires at least minimum wage paid to service staff. It's like $20/hour. They're not going to decrease their tipping expectations because you know, greed is a thing

What does covering more employees over the same period mean? I don't follow. Also, you're assuming that customers' salaries increased with COL and inflation. They haven't. These policies just squeeze value out of customers. Of course they're offended

At what point did this minimum change from 10 to 15 to 18 and now 20? Restaurants increase the cost of food items and your tip is a proportion of that. Why would the cost of food increase AND the proportion of tip also increase? That's double dipping and yeah, people should be pissed about it

I live near a place where the fries come with the burger, but sometimes you have to ask for them. The bean counters assume about 50% of the time that you don't want them. Lunchbox laboratory in Seattle, in case anyone's wondering. It sold out a long time ago and has been crap since
