If a wind turbine is bombed, it’s not a hazard for thousands of years. Given humanity’s need to kill each other, nuclear plants are a time bomb

Bro you’re straight up just lying. It’s so clear that you have no idea what being a server is like, because believe it or not, you do actually make pretty decent money (a hell of a lot more than working the check stand at a grocery store). This is part of the discussion that is actually worth having, because similar to nurses who don’t want universal health care, there are a lot of people in the service industry who like the tipping system.
Sure, here’s how “the rest of the civilized world works”: people pay their fucking employees. America is broken.
Your limp dick protest does nothing except hurt employees. The owners still make the exact same amount from you, and the lower class gets fucked.
Since you seem to have reading comprehension issues, let me make this clear:
- I do not support tipping
- Not tipping is taking it out on the person who’s vulnerable
- Therefore, if I don’t feel like tipping, I do not go out
It’s not working, the wage divide is getting larger, and you’re a heartless idiot who very likely is eating a lot of spit. Because, as you should know since you “worked service”, people talk and know if a customer is going to stiff them.

If you’re going out to eat and not tipping, I truly don’t believe you have worked at a food service job. Full stop.
Tipping is a construct of capitalism that allows owners to shunt the burden of paying their workers to the customer. Yes, it’s fucked. This does not change the fact that if a server waits on your bum ass for an hour, and you don’t tip, they probably made about $3 while serving you. It’s basic human respect to compensate someone for that - and while it’s fucked that the burden falls on you, that’s the name of the game in America.
Don’t go out to eat if you don’t want to tip.

Bro is an idiot without an ounce of empathy who has clearly never had to work a service job a day in their lives. I’m with you ms docrime

Just don’t eat out if you don’t want to tip. Tipping culture is fucked but servers are just as victimized as customers.

Wow, this is super cool - saving this for when I finally spruce up my old desktop for a home server. You’re a talented person mate

Having sympathy for Vietnam vets is the same thing, except culturally acceptable for Americans. You can root for Russia to lose and also mourn the lives lost in a war that civilians were forced to participate in.
Dumb mods!
