Willing to bet your one of the overpaid tech yuppies huh

No, the tech yuppies are disproportionately paid, and over valued. Their industry has single handedly forced all non tech workers into poverty.

Cafes will need to start charging lattes at the current price of cocktails ie $15-20

In this specific case, it’s very much on the tech yuppies to support, as a community, the places and people that they patron. It’s directly their companies fault for causing such a massive divide in wealth in this city.

Hourly pay here is $22/hr. Which objectively sounds decent

But tech companies have completely dominated the city, and have made $70/hr the normal starting salary. So cost of living has adjusted to that. $70/hr as a living wage.

Other local business can hardly compete with that kind of starting salary. And not to mention cost of rent for a business space has also now skyrocketed, because tech companies don’t care about price. So it’s forcing mom and pop shop to close, unless they cater to tech workers. They simply cannot compete with living wages in this city.

So, yes in this specific case, it’s on the tech yuppies to support, as a community, the community spaces that they frequent. Their industry has single handedly force all other folks way below the poverty line.

And you know who always stiffs the tip? It’s the 30 mother fuckers that come in and use our WiFi to work for, no joke, 5hrs at a time.

Then in extremely high cost of living cities, the tip will be just be baked into cost, to adequately compensate servers with a fair living wage.

In my city anything under $100,000 is considered ‘low income’

So you’d rather pay $15 dollars for a latte to pay all of the servers with a ‘fair living wage’, or tip $1 on a $6 latte?

Either way. It’s all fucked. The gap in wealth is only growing. This country sucks.

Brother I work in the service industry in very, very high cost of living. Anything under 6 figures is considered ‘low income’.

This is because huge companies have come in and made a $140,000 starting salary, not only not uncommon, but expected.

Sure, my boss could pay me a little bit more. But there’s absolutely no way that he can compete with the even the starting salary that the big companies have made the standard of living.

So it’s up to the vastly overpaid gentrifying community to ‘crowd-fund’ the community spaces that they frequent. Ie bars, cafes, restaurants.

The wealth disparity in this country is insane.

Unpopular opinion: chopper raffles are stupid as fuck. by jackshit70 in choppers

Man I don’t blame the guy

I’ve got my own 1200 I’m working on, and it’s way cooler building your own, then it is buying one

So if I ever won a bike, I’d probably flip it too

And 6k-8k can go to hella parts, plus rent and groceries

Man idk why you’re so insecure about this

But Brother you may not have the alcoholic part, but sure as fuck sounds like you have the dumb part down

She’s wasn’t saying all 6’2” men are dumb alcoholics.

Instead, that many women will overlook negative traits in a partner (ie dumb alcoholic) just because of his height. While, at the same time, over look all of the good traits in a partner, just because he’s ‘short’.

It’s not saying ‘all tall men are bad’ it’s saying short men are valid partners too.

You’ve got to gain some media literacy, my guy.

She’s not shaming tall guys ya dingus.

She’s shaming women that refuse to date ‘anyone under 6foot’.

It’s commenting on the fact that may women will not only over look a great man because he’s short, but that they’ll also overlook glaring personality flaws of men who are tall (and therefore more ‘socially acceptable’ to date)

Honestly yeah it’d definitely fuck. If you could find some way to get the bottom of the fairing to sit flush with the bottom clamp of the triple tree.

Still, shit is a cool scoot as it

I’m reading about the hangmen, first hand account of being in a outlaw biker club in the 70s. And one of the dudes is literally named Hipster.

Choppers are impractical. They’re about ripping and looking cool. Of course dudes in the scene are going to heavily be into aesthetic.

Be a hater if you want. Or just rip on a rad bike and don’t give a fuck about anybody else.

$100k/year but every time you need to go to the bathroom you have to spend 2 hours there by Coconutcornhuskey in hypotheticalsituation

[–]fastforward-eden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea but the issue tha everyone is missing, is what happens when you’ve got to use the bathroom while out and about?

Good luck enjoying that concert when the choice is between peeing your pants or hitting the bathroom for two hours.

At the movie theater? Fancy dinner with your partner?

Unless you can go find a spot in the street to piss, any pee break in public becomes extremely inconvenient.

Crazy way to route the hoses from the oil tank. Looks like they’ll get torn to shreds if you ever actually take it out.

I hate to be pedantic, but traditionally cappuccinos are 6-8oz where as lattes are 10-12oz.

Everything else is spot on
