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!

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

It’s a little hardcore, but try Bible black

Well, you have the luxury of honestly. Pretty sure those rich assholes don’t have that

Mmm… Sure. I think it’s morally correct for yourself. But the copyright people? They’ll argue all day that you shouldn’t be allowed to pirate it even after ownership. You need to buy the same movie on, VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, purple-ray, AND omni-ray when it comes out. After all, there’s money to be made.

I mean at that point, why aren’t churches paying the funeral expenses? Can’t let a Christian corpse get desecrated! It is their Christian duty!

You’re attacking me to accept shittier service? Fuck that. I’ve worked in food and have been paid minimum wage. I can identify lazy when I see it. You’re just a bigot making conjectures and attacking people for not accepting bullshit service. Get the fuck outta here with that shit

I’ve worked in restaurants too, mate. I get that it may be a lot of work, but the experience also let me know that the service I’m getting is usually pretty subpar. I don’t mind tipping good waiters, but they are pretty rare outside of fine dining. Lazy waiters, like lazy employees in any other job, are always going to be a plague on their industry.

my mindset is that if minimum wage is already a given, then I should be tipping a lot less than standard. Though doing so gets you shit treatment in future visits because tipping is more of a bribe than a remark on good service. Remarkable how all this works, isn’t it?

i already explained it

you know, when I was a kid, safeway used to employ enough employees such that there were no lines for checking out. Well, they got bought out, self-checkout became a thing, and now there’s always a line. During peak hours, you get to wait in line for self-checkout and watch people slowly check themselves out like it’s somehow still a brand new concept. You’re celebrating the decline of service and claiming it’s the “best thing that happened to shopping”. That’s so sad.

you do realize that most large chain grocery stores cut back on check-out lanes because of self-checkout, right? You have to wait in line if you don’t want to use self-checkout because of the cutting back. You’re not saving time. You’re just waiting extra or resigning to checking yourself out. It’s shittier service and you know it.

naw, man. Look at it this way: if you’re checking yourself out, you’re doing labor for them. Maybe every once in a while, you pay yourself a candy bar. Because fuck’em.

at that point, just quit. Right?

minimum wage at restaurants in washington state is $16.28 starting next year. It’s $15.74 right now. They still expect a 18% tip. Should I just say fuck it and not tip?

I’ve been to restaurants with mandatory 20% tip included in the bill and let me tell you, I don’t even know if I got service worthy of 10%. It seems to be more of a cultural problem though. Even when their salaries are covered, American restaurant service is pretty lackluster. Without the carrot on the stick, it doesn’t seem like they’re even willing to try.

You know, if they include a mandatory fee, it gets taxed too. So that 18% gets sales taxed on top of it, bringing it close to 20% anyway. You end up paying the same amount and the government just gets more. Overall dumbbbbb

Yeah, broken support needs to be illegal. You can’t even do a credit card charge back sometimes because you’ve had an item too long.

I get this kind of shit dealing with LG and Samsung support too. It’s like customer experience doesn’t matter in this day and age. They’ve cornered the market
