    How about the owner paying the employees enough to make it on their own without the unnecessary guilt trip!

    Maybe it's just me but if I saw this, I would never return. The owner being a chaep *** shouldn't mean that we have to make up the difference.

    160 People Wanted to Be Buried in Space. Their Capsule Slammed Into the Ocean Instead
    (Did not use semi-colon ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^)

    qj5ze69rzoj2.png
    • A spacecraft called the Nyx capsule recently crashed in the Pacific Ocean after the landing parachutes failed to deploy.
    • The capsule carried cargo including cannabis and human remains, all of which were lost in the crash.
    • After apologizing to the families who lost their loved one’s remains, the company responsible for the spacecraft said this “partial success” should serve as an important learning opportunity for future reusable space flight missions.

    Yep - I’d hit “custom tip”, enter $1, and never return.

    It's also rude to ask for something you may not deserve. Not to mention this is coercion. Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

    If that’s a restaurant asking a customer for a 30% min tip, they’d better offer a shoe shine and a sloppy hummer for hell’s sake.

    There was a time not too long ago when I would have dismissed this as a complete fake. It might still be, however I have no trouble believing it to be true - few things are more toxic than the “influencer culture”…

    Agree!

    AI may be trouble down the line, Gen Z's that never lived a day without a phone in their hand.

    That's all from me, I usually keep quiet on these kind of topics.

    The USPS, the undisputed champions of doing it wrong.

    3 shipments from 3 different places and all 3 are, as of right now, somewhere unknown. How is that even possible!?!

    This past week I received a check from a client postmarked 11/29/2024. :-(
    Fortunately he'd replaced it but wow!

    In lieu of a thread titled "You’re doing it RIGHT......"

    hn6lwqhqlkau.png
    DEAR ABBY: I’m a 23-year-old college graduate who was lucky enough to land a job in my field of study. The job is located in my hometown. Because I couldn’t afford my own apartment, I moved back in with my parents. The situation was supposed to be temporary, but now that I can afford to move out, my parents insist that I stay with them.

    They forbid me to move until I pay off the entirety of my student loans, which will take years. Then, after I accomplish that, they want me to start repaying them for the loans THEY took out for my schooling.


    A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR THE GOVERNMENT

    Had a shipment off ebay circle around from Maryland to Memphis
    three times over several months. Lot of good a tracking number did
    For me. It did finally show up. I don't know why they even bother with
    tracking.
