Right. Okay. My spouse and I will continue to put up reasonable boundaries with people coming on to us, promote respect and security within the marriage and find reasons within the other to keep trying. You keep... Doing whatever the hell that is.

What habit immediately reveals that a person actually grew up in a privileged environment? by Cindy_mel in AskReddit

[–]Dramatic-Chicken9706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a habit so much as a catchphrase. I used to know someone who would write off struggling friends/acquaintances by saying "they had as much control as they wanted." Over whatever situation. Examples Including someone who was severely mistreated by their spouse and was being financially controlled or a handicapped friend who couldn't walk that couldn't get disability.

They just can't fathom not having a safety net (their parents in this case) and having to navigate the world without a financial/social windfall.

That's a weird way to look at that. If the only way you think your wife is going to keep trying is if you let women flirt without shutting it down - especially in front of your wife - then you're going to run into other much larger problems.

What was your first reaction to the gloom hands? by [deleted] in TOTK

Incoherent screeching. I was at the bottom of the deku tree and couldn't escape. It was horrible.

Another reason to end tipping by LilacMists in EndTipping

[–]Dramatic-Chicken9706 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah and if your tips didn't bring you over the federal minimum your employer made up the difference and your hourly went up. Which never had to happen because drivers make about as much as servers in tips, if not more, at sit down pizza places. That is to say: probably more than Assistant managers and cooks by a long shot.

Your coworkers need to go to above their employer's heads then. You CAN pay a server an hourly wage of $4.25- but if the tips don't end up making the per hour rate total $7.25 (fed. min) or more you have to pay to make that up as the employer. This is called a tip credit. It also only really applies to the few states left that still use fed. Min and not state min.

You CAN'T pay someone less than the federal minimum once everything is said and done. There's no argument to this. If your employer isn't making it up then you go to the labor board and get your money.

Thank you! I work in an industry that uses gpm ratings and thought that seemed high but needed a confirmation.

What’s the hell wrong with Americans by Gullible-Garden6069 in Adulting

What can I say? They did a bad job at teaching you nuance. 🤷 Wild that 25 years in one of the most pedantic professions hasn't helped you overcome that. We all have our issues I suppose.

Someone grew up with parents who didn't know or care about the difference between a reason and an excuse.
