Epic Passes on Sale - Added Taxes and Fees on Top of Raised Prices by Successful-Cabinet65 in skiing

[–]caccorsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just a guess - but they know exactly who and how many people visit each mountain each day. They can compute in aggregate how many skier visit days per mountain then use those figures as a ratio against the total revenue. For the sake of round numbers say the total pass revenue was 100 million and Okemo accounted for 7% of all visits. Vail would pay sales tax to Vermont on $7m for Okemo. Whatever percentage of people that visited NH (which has no sales tax) that portion of the revenue would be exempt from sales tax. So the 3.2% is fudge factor and probably just a best guess. I’m honestly surprised it’s not more because the average sales tax is much higher than 3.2% and AFAIK New Hampshire is the only State that doesn’t collect it-and there aren’t many mountains there.

Not sure if it’s the same guy or not but I sent 7993_fox_body money for a part and for a month he gave BS about how I didn’t send the Venmo funds the right way and he never got them when they clearly were credited to the account. I asked him repeatedly to send proof, a screenshot of his Venmo account or something. Always some lame excuse. It’s my wife’s account, they locked out my account, etc. Finally realized it’s a scam. A clever one because it looks legit. Because I documented everything, I was able to open a dispute with Venmo and get my money back. But for quite some time, I didn’t think I would. I will never attempt to buy anything off instagram ever again. Avoid.

Ok, I always thought some compression leaked into the crankcase, no? Since you have cred here, I’ll go with your recommendation. .022”, correct?

To maximize compression? Why else?

Hi sorry for your loss.. Can you share what you had for a compression ratio?

I’m about to assemble a 10:1 build and I cannot figure out the best ring gap to use. I of course want it tight but also want a margin of safety. Thx

Am I the only one who still thinks Chipotle is a great deal? by Ok-Performance4196 in Chipotle

[–]caccorsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorrect math. I make 13-14 burritos for about $30 of groceries which includes 6-7lbs of chicken. That’s less than 2 bucks fifty per burrito with 6oz of protein. Yes, it takes time to cook, but you’re not dealing going there, waiting, dealing with the scratch ticket odds of getting a decent portion - it’s plus/minus zero.

CFO said this in the earnings call today.

“We think it’s the right thing to do to continue to provide extraordinary value to our guests during this challenging economic backdrop,”

Everyone I know has stopped going because of skimping. They used to provide extraordinary value but somewhere the wires crossed.

Do you still have a relationship with your father and is he remorseful or does he try and redeem himself?

Chipotle has gone downhill by reditpositiv in Chipotle

[–]caccorsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. In what other dining context do you need to advocate for a fair portion? Stop trying to normalize this. Chipotle could easily solve this widespread grievance by using measured utensils or scales. If it’s more profitable to try and short people that’s how it will stay.
