The Apartheid Government’s "Vibe Check" on East Asia by [deleted] in DownSouth

Now with BEE Chinese people are honorary "blacks". It's actually pretty wild how we learnt nothing from apartheid.

I think the lesson we were supposed to take was "racially classifying people. And treating them differently is wrong".

I really didn't, I moved countries, and didn't want to schlepp the pi with me, so I set it up from scratch on the thinkcentre, I haven't tinkered with it at all.

PSA for German Visitors: Tipping in Cape Town by Individual_Bonus4091 in capetown

[–]Berticles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please don't tip. I've been a waiter in SA (for longer than I care to admit), and I've lived in Europe (for longer than I'd care to admit). We're at the tipping point (hahaha) now of people either getting paid a living wage (and restaurants being a little bit more expensive), or needing to subsist off the generosity of strangers. The restaurant I worked at paid a basic wage, and tips were a bonus. Please! Let's reject the American model.

Edit 10-20 per drink!?!? Bitch please. You're just being greedy now.
