We should talk about politics and religion in everyday polite society as a normal day-to-day thing i.e. with strangers. 

 

I think that making these topics taboo (the old "don't talk about politics, religion, or money") contributes to division, tribalism, and the demonisation of the other side. 

 

Yes it means having uncomfortable conversations but it's worth it.

In the past,  everyone had been paid a wage for there time,  if you had a business meeting or date, to stand out and know your table will be prioritized for best service,  it was given before the meal to be priority of the staff not afterwards. 

 

If you did not tip, you are still given good service for a little patience, 

Now days as costs of living increase, jobs pay slightly  more to appear profitable and have the requirement it is not ok to accept tips, or the employee can now be fired.

Sadly there are those in a business that may be dependent on the tips and support from there customers.

At the very least sub 1 year old accounts should not be able to make a faction. And that's absolute bare minimum.

How big is the hill? My knees are shit these days and I get short of breath after only a couple minutes...most hills are scary, to be honest.

i agree completely, the owner should be paying a living wage, tipping was originally for showing that a waiter/waitress did a really good job, and i thin if it stayed at that it would be good, but if the owners take money out of their pay expecting tips, it defeats the whole purpose

that's like saying a sub sandwich isn't a sandwich *until* you cut the 2 halved completely apart.

if there's a filling and a grain.. it's a type of sandwich.

tostino's pizza rolls? sandwich
dumpling? sandwich
calzone? sandwich

i will die on this hill...  possibly from clogged arteries

and yes... i require grain.  a lettuce wrap isn't a sandwich... it's a violation

 

*edit: "until" not "unless"...  i am dumb for multiple reasons

That's literally exactly what was said.

I am still bound by principle to stand by the notion that it's a taco until the bread has fully been bifurcated. I don't like it either.
