The American imperial machine never had a more attractive and like able face than when Obama was at the helm. We, as a nation are responsible for untold suffering throughout the world and I don’t think his administration is going to remembered as fondly as we would have liked due to a number of foreign and domestic…

Libyan Slavery Is Wrong, and It’s Partly America’s Fault. So, Why Aren’t We Doing More About It?

As a Jew, let me say...

Not only that, service industry workers are viewed as a necessary part of society, service is seen as a profession, and service industry workers take pride in their work because they are compensated fairly by their employers, and have health insurance, and all that good shit. There’s a lot we could learn from Europe…

I generally like America as well, don’t misunderstand me, almost everything I’ve written on this thread has been somewhat tongue in cheek. While I do tip, and tip well, I totally agree with you in principle.

People cant be this fucking tone def and inept.

Although I do leave a tip...for good service...I feel the exact same way

The ones wielding the power are the restaurant owners, who could choose to pay their employees a living wage rather than exploit them and run their business off of slave labor.

No. You should Pay your employees. You are literally a thief. Your business survives on labor you do not pay for.

But, the point is that it’s an employer’s n responsibly to pay their employees. What’s really really not fair, in fact, is that a business owner is hiring people to”work” for him, is making money off that labor—his business is dependent on it—and does not pay those employees a living wage. It’s the definition of…

This is why it’s so difficult to further exploitative systems, it’s all so corrupt that people sincerely believe that the exploitation is just.

Why don’t you pay your employees a living wage?

“Don’t you know who the fuck I am?”

Just because you “expect” it does NOT mean it is “required”..... It is this sense of entitlement that makes some folks not want to give you a damm thing....you don’t set the “fee”- get over yourself or find another job

How about fuck you? It’s clearly not a “fee,” it’s the exact opposite of a “fee.”

Your employer should pay you. Relying on tips *is* gambling for a living.

They all suck at healing in general! Mercy’s kit (not including Rez) is the fastest healer in the game.

My parents are like this too. It’s a fucking conversation whenever we go out to dinner as a family. If my sister or I pay, there will be an appropriate tip. If my mom pays, we can usually guilt her up to 15-18%. If my dad pays, he will roll his eyes at me and write in that 10% without a care in the world, because my…

Ah, back to the exercise in extortion that is tipping...
