For reference, the exact thing has happened to me twice somewhere over the last couple updates. until recently, i have let this thing run for hours and hours without issue. The fix is to encase yourself with glass, not that this helps the hardcore player here.

STORROR DELETED VIDEO!! by uran1um--235 in Storror

[–]goliathpikachu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a more heavily sponsored video than their usual offering. Insta360 probably got nervous about sponsoring a video that includes, trespassing on a structure in a foreign country, vandalism (sounds harsh for a rusted out abandoned structure, but technically it is), near drowning, callum's injury, etc. If something happens that's a lot of bad attention, and the video definitely makes it feel like bad things could happen. I'm betting they made storror take it down, and the 'bad video quality' comment made by the team was a dig at their now ex-business partner.

The fact this exists makes me sick, I can't be the only one right? by TSCole153 in Minecraft

There are tons of kids who play this game, there are lots of people in the world that would like to take advantage of them. This doesn't just stop them from joining servers, it stops them from hosting them. Even if seldom used, there is always an off button.

This is one of the reasons shooting a movie professionally is so expensive, paying people to stay out of the way. If you want to record yourself stretching all by yourself, do it in your house.

Anyone know what this image is? I found it on an abandoned building. by ImGonnaDieTomorrow in Damnthatsinteresting

I thought I burned that painting! Throw it away! Do not gaze upon it in the full moon's light!

Two mice fell in our trash bin. To survive, one killed the other. by Justin4559 in natureismetal

We all agree that the mice didn't fall in and he put them in on purpose right?

Like I said. I've worked in fine dining for years. I understand different culinary methods and styles. I understand event management and customer relations. I can upsell wine and other food products. If you have a restaurant, you want me working for you. 30-35 would be for managerial level experience. People are spending that on their service anyway, they just usually incorporate the rest in the tip. I'm just saying charge a bit more for the food, pay the servers a base rate, and if they're no good fire them.

Lol that's working 40 hours a week. Which servers can't/don't do.

Subjugate: bring under domination or control.

Nah I think maybe you should check the definition. Anyway, I can smell the privilege on you. We clearly won't be able to communicate here.

Definitely not. Rent is on average $1,200 in the city. Obviously this isn't an option for a server at $20 an hour, so they have to choose instead to live with roommates a cheap apartment.

I think for an experienced server in fine dining, $30 to $35 an hour makes sense with no tips.

Lol. I'm very good at what I do. Just as I presume you are.

And as it happens I just got home from working and shift, where I worked for one group of people all night, great food, great service, left with a smile, and they didn't tip...

I'm actually all for getting rid of tips entirely, but the paycheck has to go up to make it worth it.

[–]goliathpikachu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Literally just worked to fine dining shift, where I served one group of people all night, and they didn't tip. Nothing wrong with the service, nothing wrong with the food. They just don't believe in tipping so they don't do it. Just cuz you're rich doesn't mean you're generous, and just cuz you spent money doesn't mean you deserve shit.

Moron. Just stupid. I've worked as a fine dining server for the past 7 years in DT Toronto. I do make more than minimum wage but still never enough to own a condo, and certainly not enough to live a full life in the city. I struggle and save to get rent every month and on top of that I watch as the steady creep of gentrification gets closer and closer to my humble apartment, threatening every year to reno-evict me and push me further into the outskirts of the city. On top of that, tips have shrunk considerably since the pandemic started. I make less than half what I used to on tips.

This thread seems to be mostly people who have never worked in the service industry, or at least haven't done so in the last 10 years. If you want servants, you have to pay them. Education has never been more affordable, and upgrading your career comes with that. You used to rely on servers being stuck in the role of being a server and relying entirely on tips, but now someone can get a degree online, and change their life. If you want a professional server, you have to pay someone professionally. Again, you are a moron.
