    Maybe he was referring to the Sanders thread on Surly

    You can't unlearn that shit. First they take my math, and now they are coming for my extra space? This world is such bullshit.

    It's a mixture of this stadium is brand new and still has that new car smell, and this stadium is salt of the earth and how God intended football to be played, and this team is really good so gameday is awesome because everyone is happy.

    Hopefully not more of that cumulus pay bullshit, and how Gordon supposed to be Robin Hood to all the Ticket spares.

    It will be in the restaurants best interest to staff efficiently. The "easy shifts" shouldn't be easy because the restaurant should be staffed accordingly. So overall it's slow, but there is less staff so you are covering more tables. And the busy times would see more waitstaff. That's obviously something they would have to learn.

    It's textbook theft. I've seen enough bar rescue to know that it's a common move in poorly ran establishments, but any cash transaction can be pocketed if the business is poorly managed.
  8. Gene Parmesan
    Yeah but that's stealing from the bar. What does theft have to do with tip culture? People in any industry can steal from their place of work.

    I don't remember who but someone posted a while back that waiters are taxed on a % of sales, so the government is factoring in cash tips. You'd only be pocketing the cash that was over whatever that % is. Not that any of it matters much in a cashless society.

    I'm fine with waitstaff making whatever it takes to end tipping. I'd rather just pay the bill of 125 and no tip, than 100 plus a 25 tip. All tipping does is allow for cheapskates to snub waitstaff or shitty managers to screw them over.

    48 hours training is only long enough to teach you how not to cut yourself unsheathing it.

    Both taste amazing, but if I am cooking more than a 2-3 strips it's going in the oven. It's simply the superior method in terms of ease.

    For sure practice I ruined my edc knife after watching a couple minutes on YouTube and giving it a shot.

    His floor is working at Home Depot.

    He's a first rounder, so if they don't pick up his 5th year option he's a free agent, and there is no way they are picking it up. I guess the long term plan can be to sign him as a free agent after two seasons.
  18. Gene Parmesan
    They didn't give up much, but I still don't see the point. They get him for 2 years because there is no way they are picking up his 5th year option, and I don't know how you are going to show that he is flippable for anything. A 4th round pick for 2 years of a 3rd string QB.

    Yes, but that is what we are talking about converting to a euro system. You said it guarantees bad service because they are getting paid regardless, but that's not the case, because people tend to do their jobs, assuming they want them. That would mean paying a waiter enough for them to want to work for you for the hourly wage you can afford. Obviously this a hypothetical because everyone is not going decide to change overnight.
  20. Gene Parmesan
    Well in the euro model the waitresses aren't dependent on tips. That's the point, they don't just stop doing their jobs.
  21. Gene Parmesan
    This isn't complicated if a waiter is shitty, it's costing the restaurant money, and most operate on thin margins. People don't want to patronize a restaurant with shitty service regardless if tips are involved. It's in nobody's interest for the waitress to do a shit job, just as it's not in an office workers interest to fuck up TPS reports if there is no tip.
  22. Gene Parmesan
    For sure you anchor baby that
  23. Gene Parmesan
    The bill was 100+ for 2 people. That's not high roller, but there are plenty of cheaper options if they are entitled to eat out.
  24. Gene Parmesan
    Because they are 100% assholes. What is your point? That it's not illegal so it's fair game, or that it's okay to be an asshole to someone because someone unrelated was an asshole to you?
  25. Gene Parmesan
    The story was specifically about a sit down restaurant. Not tip culture in general. No you shouldn't go to a restaurant if you can't afford to tip. If the industry ever changes, then you still wouldn't be able to eat at that restaurant because rather than a $100 food bill and $20 tip you are getting a $120 food bill. So if anything the current industry is at his advantage.
