Lamar be all like “Now I run the game got the whole world talkin’”.

of the six incomplete passes, one was a throwaway out of bounds, one was a dropped pass that was perfectly placed to Lazard, and one was a quick dump off to avoid a sack.

He is the first Packers QB in the Super Bowl era with a perfect rating, and he is the first QB to pass for five touchdowns and run for one more since 1991.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure I never believed it was a Marvin Lewis problem as much as it was a skinflint idiot Mike Brown problem.

Getting bawled out (or worse) for eating (non-staff meal) food is pretty common in a lot if not most restaurant, they try to fence in what you can and can’t eat. Usually the guidelines are pretty clear and specific, but managers or the chef(s) or kitchen staff have the discretion to make reasonable exceptions.…

There have to be some boundaries, some sensible policy and practices, or else people go nuts. Usually a reasonable/generous meal allowance, and sensible experienced leads and managers went a long way to keep employees fed, happy and motivated, and helped curtail a lot of waste/pilfering.

I had a colleague who worked the overnight shift at a gas station that had a deli counter, which closed after 9 PM. So the employees were allowed to eat a meal and snacks from the deli counter, help themselves to stuff that might go stale anyway and might have to be thrown out. They could drink bottomless coffee and…

My ogre-chef I’ve referred to elsewhere, he had this shtick/habit of, when we were crazy slammed and something went sideways, he’d yell for for our dishwasher at the top of his lungs to come to his aid. Now, Jagtar (I’m unsure of the spelling) was a tiny Indian man, couldn’t have been more than 5 feet tall, just tiny…

I’m very relieved you’re still here Mr. Nolan. There was a rumour yesterday that you were no longer around. I’ll be looking for your work on The Concourse from now on I guess.

I’ll set up a Camp where they can be Reeducated in how to manage those feelings.

The Wharton grad had trouble explaining this.

Yeah, I’m not claiming I invented any of these, just providing, um, tips for tip-earners.

A variation on this was in the days when people still used cash, and would receive a bill for $15.87, they’d leave a $20 bill in the fold, along with 87 cents in coins. So you could just put that money in your cashout pocket, and transfer a five to your ‘tip’ pocket, not worry about the change.

The proper way to do it is to take ten percent of the total (pre-tax, minus alcoholic beverages), halve that, and add that amount to the ten percent to come up with a nice round generous 15%. If the service and food was superb.

Yep.  I don’t watch football any more, but I do come here for the schadenfreude, and I still want bad things to happen to the Raiders.  And their dumb fans.

Otto Balé? Did you mean:

...before my wife and I have time to turn around and yell at him to stop.

We’re adults here, we expect you to drawbridge your own conclusions.

Whoa whoa whoa there, easy on the big words. It is not a lie that this guy is a novice climber, just because he’s better at it than 99% of the population. That’s the way this works. I’m a novice scuba diver in that I’ve put on the gear and played with it in a pool and had an introduction to it, which is more/better…

We’re having fun with your Batman and Robin reference, but you bring up a real problem with the wall that yes, with a rope and an ascender of some sort, and you can climb it pretty easily. It’s still a barrier, especially at 30 ft tall in some sections, but that only means people get ingenious and find another way…
