I guarantee they paid a LOT less than I did, or they would not be in a middle seat in the cheap seats to start with. I am flying on relatively last minute M-F tickets for work travel, they cost a LOT of money. If I am travelling personally, I am flying up front *every* time.

“Hi, did you find everything you were looking for today? Oh, that’s great. This looks good, have you tried this before? My aunt Shirley needs hemorrhoid cream too.  My break is coming up in 10 minutes.  How is the weather outside?  Wait, I should start bagging, do you want paper or plastic?  You brought bags, hold…

Grocery store cashier is a job that can be automated away and therefor is a job that nobody really needs to have.  People are meant to do better things than scan barcodes and make change.

“Its so half-assed to basically hack-saw a car and stick a useless 3 foot bed on the back.”

Not useless at all. Some of us are into cycling and play in bands so a truck the size of a 90's S10 is perfect to haul guitar cabs or toss some mud covered bikes in the back and head home with reasonable MPG.

Sort of. Class one ebikes are actual bikes with electric assist. I didn’t get this until a friend let me ride his.It had 3 power settings.

$5K e-bikes? Pfft. Those are for the DUI riders.
