There are hotel service workers' unions, notably Unite Here. Here is a resource for looking for unionized hotels. I am willing to bet that more workers would unionize if given the chance, which is increasingly difficult, even in states that have not passed "right to work" laws. Unions and right to work laws have A LOT…

Right-to-Work means right to fire. I'm a loud and proud union member and steward, and I do not take it for granted.

stadiums for the 2022 World Cup have been built using slave labor and 1000's have died. That's actually the truth, though. Seriously, FIFA is genuinely evil.

I thought a Rachel was a haircut.

i will now see my way out

"AUGHH I JUST REALIZED WE ARE ALL HURTLING THROUGH AND EMPTY UNCARING UNIVERSE ON A SPECK OF DUST ORBITING A TINY SPARK ORBITING THE CENTER OF ONE OF 10 BILLION GALAXIES AT MILLIONS OF MILES PER HOUR UNTIL THE ENVELOPING FROZEN BLACKNESS TAKES US ALL."

Well, if you ever travel to Cambodia you can try deep fried tarantula which is apparently now a pretty popular street food!

*facepalm* I'm going to be patient since "I just finished a course" leads me to believe you're young and dumb, which happens.

As someone who, for reasons I don't understand, can't stand cheeseburgers and has to verify "without cheese" at every single restaurant, the greatest moment of my life was when we went to a kosher restaurant near my friend's apartment, and I start explaining to the guy that I want a burger with NO cheese, like I…

Did I mention that the owner only came into the shop for poor braking and a 'small" noise?"

We were constantly repairing his rims trying to get them to stop leaking (they weighed at least 80 lbs by the way and NOBODY wanted to work on them. Removing and mounting skinny tires is the absolute worst. It usually takes two or three people just to get them mounted). To make these massive rims fit he had to use a…

And that's why you should have mandatory regular inspection in the US, like the rest of the civilized world.

Someone should ask Mr. Murphy when he made his heterosexual lifestyle choice.

I disagree with the Mets lifestyle.

"Hell, imagine what would happen at any place with a corporate office: not only would the employee responsible be fired as fast as corporate could dial the phone to call it in, the customers would probably be given free steak dinners for a month and the right to publicly flog the restaurant employee of their choosing."

Aughh...just last night, we had "Aerial America" on as background noise while I was reading a book, and my wife napped with the dog on the other end of the couch. They were panning past the Starbucks HQ in Seattle, when the narrator said something about how the founder had been to Europe, and was impressed with…

I went with my dad to a very famous pub in central London. Dad asked for a whisky mac, which the woman serving hadn't heard of. My dad explained what was in it.

I don't know, I would let this one slide. Saying "make it Perfect" instead of "sorry, I meant a Perfect Manhattan" would definitely get lost in the shuffle of dealing with pushy people all day.

Maybe you could have a similar to Behind Closed Ovens over at Kitchenette, and post several stories belonging to a same subject weekly, then go back to this theme with more stories later on. I bet there are stories that are too good to go to waste.
