If you’re a prick for not tipping and it’s a discount rather than a bonus, then it’s absolutely an issue of the employer exploiting labor.

State sales tax would ideally be factored into the listed price, but regardless, it’s mandatory and baked into the bill. I don’t need to play games deciding if, when and how much to add on, which tipping requests have become.

Dine in? Sure, 20%. Get one beer from the bar? A burrito for take out?

You’re calling people selfish when there was no mention of not tipping, just that it’s a problematic system.

Jesus man, your argument is that employers should be allowed to not fairly compensate their employees. Just shut the fuck up.

I worked most positions in the industry over seven years. I’m not concerned about how I tip and I can also think it is a dog shit system.

When you agree saying “sure it is, nobody is arguing that,” but you started with “what really is the functional difference here? …is it just hatred of math?” That’s dissonant.

Your original rebuttal is dumb. Raise the prices, pay employees, eliminate tipping.

That’s also assuming just 1B, but he would only need to drop under 1T (IE 999B) to be a billionaire.

That’s a wild ride and I think Beats by Dre being bought for $3.2B is possibly the craziest part.

Snopes: A White House official said via email: "Obviously, we did not order officials to wear this pin. If they choose to wear one, it is to show support for the greatest President in history." Brendan Carr, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chair seen in photos wearing the golden Trump lapel pin, had not responded to requests for comment about why he wore the pin at the time of this writing.

Still pretty fucked.

Takes 51% to allow the prez to declare war or 67% to stop the prez from unilaterally declaring war? Dumb.

If this weren’t such a huge red flag, I’d just knock on the door and pay the current tenant $5.

3000 hours OT would mean over 5000 hours worked or 14 hours every damn day of the year.

Even if true, that’s terrible management from a budgetary view (they could hire a second person for less cost) and an operations view (stretching a “high stress” position very thin).

“At the first session of Congress after every general election of Representatives, the oath of office shall be administered by any Member of the House of Representatives to the Speaker.”

2 U.S. Code § 25

“Shall” meaning it’s a requirement.

Nothing you wrote ensures anything.

Trump was impeached twice with no consequence.

“Official acts” is arbitrary.
