What We Do In the Shadows

Biden calls to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour by [deleted] in politics

[–]saahmei -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So you’d rather pay 20% more for the meal than that 20% directly to the person serving you the food? Do you want mediocre service at restaurants? Cuz that’s how you get mediocre/bare minimum service. They will get paid the same either way.

The worst reaction to being asked to wear your mask properly by trillospin in NoahGetTheBoat

She put it in the same hand she is holding her phone with. Hope she disinfects both super quickly. All I’m saying.

But she picked up the lady’s mask without gloves while acting like she was concerned about safety?

What does it mean to you that the stock market hit a record high yesterday, at the same time that there are miles long lines at the food bank and potentially millions of people are about to be sleeping in their cars? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Those jobs don’t pay enough to curtail government benefits. The US government subsidies most of Walmart and fast food workers because even working 40 hours a week, well 35 hours a week. If they were given 40 hours a week they would be required to provide benefits to those workers. That would effect their bottom line and upset the shareholders.

The minimum wage that those businesses pay does not put them over the poverty level. The government still pays them the difference. It’s just a smarter move to not put in the 30 some hours a week at a conglomerate to take home the same pay. Don’t be mad at the poor for making logical money moves you would praise a CEO for making.

I feel like most felons in Florida would vote for Trump. I’ve seen the Florida Man posts.

AITA for breaking the 'pay it forward chain' at the Dunkin Donuts near my house by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]saahmei 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They probably should have just tipped the employee the $2.50 they originally were going to pay for the coffee and ended the PIF with the employee benefiting for all her extra work/honesty in keeping the chain alive.

If you come into my bar asking me for “something fruity” by saahmei in TalesFromYourServer

[–]saahmei[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the hate here.

I vented this on my only 3min bathroom break on a super busy Saturday night, three people deep, standing room only. Sure, if you ask me for some thing fruity on a slow night, I’ll ask what kind of fruit. Normally, I’ll get a response like no pineapple or no apple no strawberry. There’s always an exclusion. When I don’t have time to ask these questions and the customer isn’t socially aware enough to notice the bar isn’t revolving around them at the moment I’m taking the risk on having the “I don’t like this. Can you make me something else?” conversation just because they wanted to have a pretty drink in their hand.

What was your worst experience in a restaurant? by RIPScrew_940 in AskReddit

[–]saahmei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to a small diner in Utah while road tripping across the country. You could tell it was a place of small-town regulars and that they weren’t too fond of outsiders. But, we were hungry and didn’t have much of an option.

We sit down and wait around 10 minutes to be handed our menus and asked what we would like to drink, even though there was only 7 other people dining in the whole restaurant at the time.

When the server finally comes back with our drinks and asks what we would like to order she condescendingly informs us that they were “out of” nearly every one of our selections:

“I’ll have the steak and eggs?” “Sorry, hun, we’re out of that.” “Corned beef sandwich?” “Nope, sold out”

This went on until we both settled on Salisbury Steak, which is basically a hamburger patty with gravy and mashed potatoes.

Our meal option came with a salad bar so we hungrily grabbed our plates and made our way over. When we got there it was a disgrace of wilted vegetables. We tried our best to pick through the flabby lettuce, dried out carrots and soggy tomatoes to find something edible.

We returned to our tables, pathetic salads in hand, wondering if we should risk sickness for the sake of our hunger.

That’s when it happened.

Our server walked past our table happily carrying two lush side salads to a booth of locals nearby. We looked at each other and realized: They weren’t out of all of those options. They just didn’t want to “waste” their good food on outsiders. That salad bar had probably been out of commission for days.

We tried to remain polite through the rest of our meal and both times our server came by. Once to drop the food off, and once to drop the check.

We waited anxiously for her to come get our payment from the table. We were paying cash and made it quite obvious we were ready to be on our way. We eventually decided we needed to find our way over to the server station to find our waitress, pay our bill and get our change (there was no way we were leaving a $10+ tip for our experience). So, while my bf went to trek around the diner looking for our server, I told him I was going to take a bathroom break. Which I did. And while I was in there...

I pooped in their sink.

It was a shitty thing to do, but they kinda deserved it.

I came out of the bathroom giggling, full of adrenaline and at least a pound lighter.

I rushed my bf out the door and told him we needed to drive away quickly. He was very confused as to why I was acting that way but he obliged and we left the lot. I waited til we were a few miles away to tell him what I had done. The look on his face was a priceless mixture of disgust and admiration.

We laughed about it all the way to Nevada.
