that's exactly why I always try to tip with cash. when I pay in cash for food, I have no issue if the business wants to pocket it and keep a little extra something for themselves that uncle sam can't touch. taxes are important, but workers can have a little personal gain, as a treat. plus, credit companies don't need to get their beaks wet everytime I buy something.

But one of the things I learned about doing business is always make it easy for people to pay.

the weirdest thing I see regularly is "no cash" signs for vendors. I understand some places don't want to deal with giving change, or holding large amounts of cash at outdoor events, or making lines go quicker, etc. it's just strange that the most concrete form of regulated currency we have is turned down so often now.

as a mechanic working in a hodgepodge US/EU factory line, I have to suffer through always carrying double the tools to service metric and SAE machines. and after so many years in the industry, I still slip up and say 3/16 when I mean 3/8 sometimes, because fractions are a shit system for wrenches.

oh, and some of our linear encoders readout decimal-feet, because fuck it, why not?

distilled white vinegar, in moderation, can have the same effect, with less severe downsides. my clothes actually dry better with it, since it neutralizes and removes the alkaline detergents that never fully rinse out in a normal water wash. it requires some finesse to know what fabrics to use it on, but I've had great results with it

it's very easy to enter wrong numbers on a calculator, but you need some basic reasoning and familiarity to know when an answer is off, and you need to start over
