The amount of ads on the internet is just so fucking unreasonable. Some sites have so many, including ones you can't even x out of, that is renders the site damn near unusable.

Fucking blood-suckers.

Remember the days when you could watch a YouTube video without being interrupted with ads every few minutes? We didn’t know how good we had it.

Fuck the metric system

[MTK]

This trend of people posting receipts and complaining about the prices of things, after they've already paid for it. For example, saw a post the other day of someone who ate at Five Guys and was complaining about the price. Anyone who's been there knows their menu and prices are posted very clearly at the register. Is it expensive for burgers and fries? Well it's not cheap, but spare me with the victim routine. You can easily turn around and walk out the door and eat somewhere else.

Or another tweet where someone posted their receipt from ordering room service in a hotel in NYC. You'll always pay a premium for room service in general, but in NYC? Of course it's going to be ridiculously expensive. Get the F outta here

Tipping in general has become frustrating.

I got some chinese take-out recently and the lowest default tip option was 15%. 15% just to pack up my order? I think 10% max is perfectly appropriate for getting take-out.

Preach.

It makes me feel guilty when I don't tip on a takeout order, but on the flip side the argument is "why don't you just pay your employees better?"

Tipping on a takeout order is just subsidizing a business who doesn't want to pay their employees proper wages.

I just had a Domino's open 20 feet from me and they do not have tipping. It's not an option paying online or in the store. And there is no tip bucket. I was shocked when I saw that.

i have bartended and waited tables; if you work in a good busy restaurant you can make bank; i will gladly take the tips

once you have the mindset you are a salesman and the menu is your product the money will follow ; its no different then making commission on a car sale

what pisses me off is when someone wants 20% on a take out order who gets paid a non-tipping wage; if you are a professional waiter its a legit difficult job to time courses, knowledge of your menu etc...you are being paid (tip) to create an experience; fucking handing me a bag of take out food that the really labor was in the kitchen preparing that food doesn't not deserve an additional fee(tip)

even if you work at a chain restaurant and they put you on take out they up your wage for that shift

I promise you if you walked into Ruth Chris or say even Sweetwater Tavern and told the wait staff hey we are going to start paying you a wage and nix tipping there be an uproar. The tipping in restaurants was to make your waitstaff salesmen; the more they sale the more the restaurant makes and the more the server makes. A waiter is no different then a car salesman.

They are always free to leave and work somewhere else.

I rarely tip on takeout unless it’s a big order.

exactly

i am annoyed with tipping full wage employees

if you are working at say a Chinese take out with no table service you are getting minim wage at the least

if you are a waiter at restaurant you are getting like $5 or less an hour plus tips; its a commission base job no different then car salesmen or realtor

you know a job that no one is up in arms about but is basically commission; auto mechanic, no work no pay and the sales people are the service advisors
