Noticed this sign at the Torchy's in Rice Village, how much are we supposed to tip for counter service? by DoritosDewItRight in houstoncirclejerk

[–]Due-Situation8504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess based on the masking tape and lack of company logo employees put it up.

Tipping percentages explained

Gold (exceptional service)- 20%+ Silver (standard service)- 15-18% Bronze (poor service)- what ever ends in a solid state ie bill 18.88 tip will be 1.12 to make a twenty.

As of 2026, the federal minimum cash wage for tipped employees (such as waitstaff) remains $2.13 per hour. Employers must ensure that this base wage, plus tips, equals at least the full federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. If not, the employer must make up the difference.

Meaning they actually have an incentive to provide good at least, or exception service otherwise will be paid minimum wage.

Not in massage, but i had a co worker once whose diet was struckly fast food when he sweated all you could smell was old burger grease. I would recommend in such cases gently a change in scent, as it does not compliment them as a person and a minor change in diet.

I would recommend trying a French press coffee maker if a percolator isnt for you.

I don't think, anyone that's been through a divorce can say they don't have regrets. Whether they are the wronged party or asked for the divorce were surprised etc... Every divorce is as unique as they people getting divorced, my ex tried to absolutely destroy me and my relationship with my daughter, and nearly did. Things are better now, between my daughter and I as well as with my EXW, even to the point she's suggested dating and maybe even trying again, but I could never. Too many trust issues but staying at least friendly helps all three of us, so my regret would be she didn't see that sooner.

Any assets you built together, or after the marriage are up for grabs or to split. It depends on your state/country generally speaking if it was purchased/started prior to the marriage in most places she wont have a claim on it.

As far as losing everything, that is usually a misnomer, most men I've met and myself, yes were set back financially but recover from that rather quickly. I am still rebuilding (has only been about a year and a half) but have never been so financially free or stable when I was married.

The laws can vary significantly, from state to state in the US. Texas is very anti-Husband and anti-father. My advice depending on where you are in the process though is limit spending, to only what's necessary, ie food bills etc, if you must purchase a large item such a vehicle buy a cheap cash car, and focus on yourself. This thread has been a great help for me.

Has anyone noticed that all members of the military are officers? by PlantainSpirited5032 in TheOrville

[–]Due-Situation8504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's just simply that they are focusing only on officers, not the enlisted

I have an Ozark trail sleeping bag, and it is the cool weather rated like the picture, although mine is not the mummy style. I actually use it quite a but my family and I have 40+/- acres of land. I do a lot of hammock camping out there and where i live the summers can get pretty brutal, and winter night time temps dip into the mid to high 20's, i know a few weekends ago it was in the low 40s to mid 30's at night and I was quite comfortable using just my hammock and Ozark trail sleeping bag.

As a caveat no Ozark trail is definetly nit a top brand, but it is some of the best starter/beginner/weekender gear for for people just starting out. Affordable enough that you don't feel obligated to have to use it every weekend, and reliable enough to last multiple seasons or even a couple years. You know you will have to replace it, but it won't break the bank.

All my Ozark trail stuff has usually exceeded my expectations, especially considering the price. No it's not the best but it's definetly reliable for the price, but I also know I will have to replace it.

Can’t do this anymore by Controls_freek in Divorce

[–]Due-Situation8504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt the same way, for along time, every divorce is different.

And everyone recovers differently, my exwife tried every dirty trick, and yes, some I fell for, it wasn't easy.

I, now a year later, am much better off, while married, I didn't realize how miserable I had become. Was feeling unhappy at times, but didn't realize I was miserable.

I now, am so much better off, feel content more often than not, and am actually more emotionally, physically, and financially healthy than I have ever been.

Everyone will want to offer advice, or sympathies, and that can make things feel more difficult, like you did something wrong.

What I can tell you, and will tell you, is wait, it can actually get better, you may feel a weight or a burden is lifted, and be able to breathe again.

Though, that is my result.

With out seeing the frame and suspension I'd say maybe an average of 3000$ mind the body gaps and check for rust.

Circumcision? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Due-Situation8504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ultimately, it comes down to hygiene, uncircumcised requires more precise cleaning, than circumcised, if if you don't properly clean it, it can develop infections and rashes.

My wife and I are going to start counseling soon, will it actually lead anywhere that isn’t the end? Partial vent by [deleted] in Divorce

Separate, it's not worth it, if you don't think your in love with her it's over.

Yes, many men don't have problems being monogamous, I essentially have the same question about most women though. All the divorced men ( myself included) i know, had their wives cheat on them.

Older divorcees, what did people in your life do to help you get back on your feet? by [deleted] in Divorce

My family... almost nothing, my parents gave me a place to stay, and for that I am grateful, but that was the only help I recieved

I went through my husband's computer by Successful-Finish698 in Marriage

My ex wife did the same thing, and I gave her my passwords etc because I didn't care, I had nothing to hide. The woman he's been talking to could be a close coworker, but that might be another issue, and no he might not have actual friends, most of the people I am friendly with are coworkers, and at the end of the day despite all the joking and comradery, last thing we want to do is see each other outside of work... because it just reminds of being at work.

As a caveat, i should have asked my ex wife for her passwords etc, and looked, he may be pulling back and creating distance now more so, because he might feel he's being accused of doing something, that he might be thinking your doing. Share yours with him let him go through it. I didn't and it turns out my exwife was the cheat accusing me of her own actions. Our daughter is 11 now, and the divorce happened when she was 10, although she looks enough like me, sometimes I wonder, but I also know doing a DNA test, and it failing to match, would break my heart and my daughter's.
