I understand that, but I’m talking about Canada. In Canada if you’re paid $13, $18, hell $50 an hour, it doesn’t matter whether or not you make tips. Your employer must pay you your full hourly wage no matter what.

Is it normal in parts of the world for lettuce to go on nachos? I’ve never seen that before.

That’s the thing here - the employer must pay you the same regardless of tips. Tips are always a bonus, not part of your wage.

As a developer, I never get tips. Even on my open-source stuff, I have a “tip jar” PayPal link on the very bottom of my readme files. Never asked, never required. Know how much I’ve made in tips over the years? Exactly $0.

It’s getting stupid in Canada too despite our laws being different (as in, you cannot make less than minimum wage if you work in a place that allows tips).

I got my oil changed a few months ago and the machine prompted me for a tip. For what? The mechanic did their job, I paid for said job. Transaction concluded.

I tried Crumbl cookies for the first (and last, holy crap overpriced) time. Got asked for a tip. For what? I got six cookies in a box and then had to leave the store because there’s no seating to eat them there. The person who helped me took my order. That’s it. Another employee put six cookies in a box and put them on a counter and said my number. Not a lot of wiggle room to go “above and beyond.”

What’s next? A tip at the grocery store for the cashier scanning my groceries? A tip at the drive-thru?

Here’s a tip. Don’t work for an employer who doesn’t pay you what you’re worth.

EDIT: Actually, the tip at the drive-thru is already a thing. Starbucks prompts for a tip at the drive-thru. For what? The barista took my order and made my coffee. I drove up to a window, took it, and fucked off.

Any auto-grat on a bill is an instant big fat 0 on the tip line for me. Fuck double dipping on customers subsidizing shitty wages. It shouldn’t even need to happen once. If the restaurant can’t pay a reasonable wage it shouldn’t be in business.

I would be completely okay with a restaurant charging a bit more for meals if they also had a “do not tip” policy. Wait staff should be expected to do their jobs, the restaurant should be expected to pay their employees. As a customer I should be expected to pay the restaurant, full stop.

Is there an option to filter by keyword? Not on the app I use, but is that a Lemmy/kbin/etc feature that the app just doesn’t implement? I’d love to filter any mention of:

• Leftist/right-wing/alt-left/alt-right

• Nazis

• Capitalism

• Trump

• Trudeau

• Biden

• LGBT+ (let’s be honest, 99% of content mentioning it is ragebait/political/controversial in some way)

• Gun control

• Abortion

The list goes on. I’d probably end up with like two posts a day on my feed but damn would those posts be peaceful.

So, solo mode? You can’t trade legendaries anyway, so it’s already self-found by default.

Skyline good car. 969 good number. Put together, good and good.

I may not be onto anything here, this may just be a coincidence. However, the timing of these two events are suspicious.

1: Squabbles.io rebrands to squabblr.co. The .io domain explicitly forbids anything that may be considered illegal by any country. The site could be shut down if this is violated. You know what would be considered hate speech by some countries, such as Canada? Discrimination of someone based on their gender identity, ie trans people.

2: Squabblr rebrands to a “free speech” website and removes all explicit mention of LGBT+ being protected under their ToS. Within microseconds (slight exaggeration, but within less than 24 hours) people are chiming in with the “trans women are not women” statements.

Was that planned, or just extremely unfortunate timing?

Works fine for me. Latest version from iOS App Store.

I see you’re also from lemmy.world. Testing from lemmy.world!
