Same except usually you’d work out a deal with the person you turned the table over to.

OP Specifically mentioned they go out at shift change, if you’re eating at a normal meal time, it’s highly unlikely to happen.

You can’t. I feel like a scratched CD here, but any politician that is talking about taxing the ultra rich and isn’t also talking about, more or less, a day one re-write of the tax code isn’t realistically talking about taxing the ultra rich.

That keeps the cereal moist AND gives you extra Cocoa Puffs milk as an aperitif.

My first ride, what a good little car it was. A hand me down from my sister, it was totaled in a small rear-ending, do my dad and took it off the insurance companies hands and did the leg work to get it back on its feet. It was purple, the color with the paint cancer where they paint just came off in massive hunks. My…

You can also set your mouse laser over a manual watch face, the ticking second hand will keep the mouse “active”.

I’ve currently manage finances for four large hotels across three different brands, I’ve worked in two others. The only time we take a first night is if the rate you book is specifically a pre-paid rate or if your part of a group with an extremely high no-show history, which is pretty uncommon.

Sure but your scenario is so reductive it’s meaningless.

Not actually selling the room twice. Just collecting the obligation you owe us for no-showing, which you agree to when you make the reservation. It’s not as nefarious as you make it sound.

It’s been a while, but at least with Open Table, they used to waive the fee if you marked the reservation as cancelled. Hence the calling around ahead of time. I did know a couple joints that got fined though for marking cancellations for guests that arrived to avoid the fee.

That exactly what I am saying. Now we’re somewhat suburban, so our overs-sell/cancellation ratio is higher. A downtown hotel might only oversell 5-10% but they will still minimize their walks and keep them at an acceptable rate. Walks cost a lot of money, if I’m sold out everyone else is probably close, so when I’m…

Looks like a pretty similar angle to my CX-9 which has perfectly fine visibility, the angle of the back creates what appears to be a really small window, but the angle from the rear-view mirror is pretty standard.

Yeah, I’m 100% with you. For my 20-mile daily commute this would be the perfect scratch for my EV itch, since my wife has a CX-9 we’re covered for the long haul family trips etc.

EDIT: Kinja weireded out.

Your room isn’t paid for until you check out, unless you book a prepaid rate.

As my cousin eloquently put it last weekend, naked on a concrete block, is the apparent trend.

Right, but it’s also 70 two or three days a week around here through like...February.

Please have good range and be reasonably priced.

There is NOTHING worse, as a server, than thinking you’re corralling a wadded up bev-nap only to grab a snotty tissue. Be decent fucking person, you “don’t like” putting them in your pockets? Eat shit, I “don’t like” getting other people communicable disease.

If that’s happening just leave, I get that changing jobs sucks, but if you’re making less than minimum wage and they’re not giving you your tip credits, that juice ain’t worth the squeeze. Foremost, server jobs are a dime a dozen, go find the next one. But secondly, if the place you’re working can’t swing the buck or…
