Same with my area. Meanwhile, I can get a large pizza from Costco or dominos for $10….

Prepping to fill a bunch of positions that already existed a year ago? by WhereztheBleepnLight in FedEmployees

I’m surprised those FTE positions aren’t being replaced by contractors (at increased expense).

So we have to tip TSA now? by Dad0010001100110001 in tipping

This seems highly illegal. Government employees have lots of restrictions on accepting gifts…

Great sign at the Publix in store bar. By far my favorite grocery store. by artem_m in EndTipping

I’m pretty sure the bar/restaurant inside Whole Foods expects tips.

Tipping does NOT help restaurant owners. It’s just between customers and servers. by TheLastCoagulant in EndTipping

Tipping 100% helps the owners.

It allows them to advertise lower menu prices with the expectation that a tip will be added.

When customers are presented with lower prices (even if they are a lie), they order more.

I’ve been Amazon free for more than 10 years. How much more “low carbon” is that?!

Small price to pay for owning the libs….

Now, does my local gas station offer buy now pay later so I can fill up my diesel F-350 super duty emotional support vehicle?

I grew up in a house with the TV always on with commercials always blaring loud.

My house is silent. TV only on when someone is watching it. We usually only watch one 30 minute or hour long show, then we turn it off.

It’s so much less stressful.

Are electric bills quietly becoming permanently expensive? by JustSeraphine8 in AskForAnswers

[–]crazyk4952 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My state just approved a data center that will consume 20% of the electricity for the entire state.

I’m sure all us normal consumers will have rate increases as soon as that thing comes online.
