90% of the time, the issues people face in restaurants are NOT because of the wait staff.
Also, remember, even if you don't tip, the employee still has to claim tips as if you did. Look up "allocated tips"
Don't want to tip? Go to McDonalds, or cook your own food.

Always tip your waiter 20%, even if the service was meh and they weren’t particularly charming. Unless they were downright horrible, don’t go below that. If they were great, consider more than 20%.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

If anyone is asking how did Baker and Taylor come to this, after decades of business, it is the same reason so many other companies did. Venture Capitalists. We need to bring back some of the old rules about that.

Ugh, have to teach one of my coworkers that he needs to put down ALL the hours he works, and that he can't walk off with items stored in certain areas "because he will use it soon". Like, we needed that for something, and couldn't find it!

So, I will have to check tomorrow, but, so far, one of my Coworkers has managed to dress like a Charlie Brown character all week. Yesterday was Peppermint Patty, today is her good friend Marcie.
Will tomorrow be Charlie Brown? Linus? Lucy? Schroeder?

I'm having a rough go of it lately, and have been thinking: everyone is going through something, and you have no idea what it is, or how it's affecting them.
Quote post this is if you're going through something, and maybe we'll all realize that we aren't as alone as we feel right now.

The push for AI is driving us backward, back to the age of Scribes. With other tech, you don't need to know how to read or write, you can use text to speech and speech to text to let the computer do ALL the work. This is going to be terrible for humanity
