The tipped wage allows unskilled workers

It allows conventionally attractive young white unskilled workers in dense enough areas to do that.

It really just depends on where you work and your demographics.

Young black male in rural city? Lol you're fucked. Attractive young white woman in dense urban center at trendy expensive restaurant? Absolutely crazy amounts of money.

I've known people who graduate, get a job in the field they wanted and then quit and went back to serving because they fell into the right demos and location.

The tipping floor is the lowest it can possibly be but the ceiling is extremely high. And it's largely based off unfair reasons.

Lol what the fuck is that petition, there is no way 4.5k people work at Casa Bonita who would be affected by it when they don't even have 350 staff.

That means at least some part of the signatures are not employees but outsiders trying to speak for the employees.

Which also means that they might not even represent many employees to begin with! For all we know 99% of workers don't want to go back to tipping.

And going off the line at the bottom (although it is quite possible they are lying, management does lie often), it seems like that could potentially be the case. After all the article only identified two people who were upset.

Of 256 employees, 93 were a part of the shift and only two said they were unhappy about it, management said at the time.

The petition claims to have more than this but it also claims to have almost 5k signed on so it's pretty unreasonable.

The idea that Mao had regressive views on women should not be shocking in the slightest. Modern women's rights are really really recent developments across the world.

One shocking fact I like to bring up is that women weren't even allowed to own their bank accounts till like the 70s/80s. My mom brings that one up when talking about how much things have changed since her childhood.

But it's also not particularly relevant. People don't listen to Mao for his views on women's rights. It's the same way we don't dismiss electricity just because the society back then owned slaves.

One lesser spoken about part of short term capitalistic pressures, how successful and delicious recipes will inevitably get destroyed in pursuit of cost cutting until the product fails to sell anymore.

“It’s not only a long-standing moral commitment; it’s a strategic commitment,” then-Vice President Biden said in 2013. “An independent Israel, secure in its own borders, recognized by the world is in the practical strategic interest of the United States of America. I used to say … if there were no Israel, we’d have to invent one.”

No I'm sure it totally happens. Antisemitism is a very real issue. Fash doesn't go away just because they have a cover for it, it's just good to not be stupid and dismiss the cover as being fash like Israel tries to do. It's a cover because it's not bad to do.

There's a fun irony where when it comes to bigotry and racism it just "needs to be exposed to sunlight" and the "the free marketplace of ideas" but leftist ideas are brainwashing that need censoring.

Huh, I wonder why those double standards exist

You can tell how bad this guy's discourse is because he has to use the term "cultural appropriation" and not just the much better fitting "appropriation" on its own because he doesn't understand what the words actually mean.

Carnist Catch 22, if it hits the beans then they'll be destroyed and you'll have to eat the pig to survive.

Yeah he's rich as fuck but he's not a trillionaire

Weirdly enough I liked having the one on one aide. I was basically out of the running for friends in most of my classes anyway so having someone on my side that I could talk to and an adult that was basically guaranteed to step in when I was bullied was a positive IMO. A lot of special ed classes can get fucked though, disrespectful and treat you like an idiot who can't even remember your own name.
