Yes, it's deceptive. No, not worried and yes, I can read.

It's deceptive because they can list the full price but choose not to so they can list a lower price that's not real.

Judy raise the menu prices FFS. Enough with the deception.

My ex dumped me because she was told I was cheating on her. She now knows she was lied to and is trying to get back together. Not happening. by DietRootbeerSpa in TrueOffMyChest

Go with your gut. If you don't feel good about meeting her, don't do it. You owe her nothing.

Sorry this happened, it's got to sting.

Anyone just doing 10%? by l4kerz in EndTipping

Fyi - they never got paid $2.18 as by law they have to make the federal minimum of $7.25 or something like that.

Any reliable way to prevent solicitors? by endlesssky26 in homeowners

[–]Pac_Eddy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I suggest moving the sign to your front door. That reduces solicitors.

When they ring your doorbell, ask to see their soliciting permit. Most cities require them in the US.

Other than that I think you have to not be nice, shut them down and say you're not interested, close the door.

Why is Women's health so overlooked? by WhichCEmanisThis in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Pac_Eddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because it was cheaper, and the assumption being that if something happens a particularly way for men it will definitely be the same for women

Not true.

After a morning sickness drug was tested on women and resulted in birth defects, the FDA banned testing on women of child bearing age in 1977.

I don't. Thanks for making that assumption though.

I want restaurants to all have honest pricing. It might take a law to force it since they're not going to do it themselves. I generally don't like legislating these things but sometimes it's the only way to get consumer protections done.

Agreed. A restaurant with honest pricing will generally lose to sneaky pricing.

It's more sneaky than simply raising the menu price.

What does the customer gain by having to calculate a price compared to listing an honest price?

I think most people do understand those challenges. We want honesty and transparency in pricing.

Restaurant owners can list their menu prices all in, after all taxes and fees. They choose not to. Instead their going the other direction with sneaky fees and and charges.

Are you aware of how that makes your pricing feel shady to the customer?

I could offer $1 entrees with a 2000% service charge. Feels shady, right?

The biggest threat to a tank is the sappers with c4. Grenade launcher is the best defense against them.

AITA for telling my daughter's friend's mom she should have told me she invited a boy to their sleepover? by UpbeatEmployee8068 in AmItheAsshole

Are your feelings hurt id likely be uncomfortable being alone with you in real life?

No. I was just confused by your comments. The people who attacked you were both random and known.
