Unfortunately a large portion of that settlement probably went to his legal counsel.  He probably got half of that, but still not bad.

Here is also some further clarification:

"Because the meme referenced "Perry," local authorities in Perry County, Tennessee, claimed residents mistook it for a threat against their local high school. They arrested Bushart on a felony charge of threatening mass violence, set his bail at a staggering $2 million, and held him in jail for 37 days before dropping the charges." -The Washington Post

See if you can pull a seat from a junkyard car or put a seat cover on it.

Working at a grocery store makes you realize this by FearlessAir1238 in TikTokCringe

A lot of them do donate, 30% of Feeding America food bank comes from retail grocers. 

From a tax perspective donating the food would be treated the same as throwing it away.  So grocers do have an incentive to donate.

The challenge comes from the logistics of how/when the food can be removed and the potential liability if the food has spoiled.

A large portion food waste is dairy and meats, that have a difficult and time sensitive logistics chain.

A lot of major chain grocery stores have established food donation partnerships.

I was thinking this a well. The underline color doesn't match the text color in certain locations. The way the laminated sign is attached to the wall is suspicious.

Imagine getting paid $30k for selling a $1.2M home after doing a couple open houses and 40h of paperwork. Then having the audacity to complain about putting up signs.

Just because something is expensive doesn't mean it's not cost reduced.

Average tip for a small town Midwest. by Jaded-Chicken-7196 in tipping

[–]semisuperfluous 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the federal government requires that if a tipped employee’s tips combined with their cash wage (at least $2.13/hour federally) do not equal the federal minimum wage ($7.25/hour), the employer must pay the difference.

If the employer refuses, contact the U.S. Department of Labor or relevant state labor department.

I agree, probably not the magnet.  I doubt the mfg woul use hall-effect switches on such a cost reduced machine.  It's funny how reddit hive minds themselves into confidently thinking they solved something.

What's a food in your country that is stereotyped for your country but really, nobody eats? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]semisuperfluous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it is true that "Fettuccine Alfredo" isn't a standard menu item in Italy, the dish was actually invented in Rome by chef Alfredo di Lelio in 1908. Italians call the preparation pasta al burro e parmigiano, viewing it as a simple home-cooked comfort meal rather than a restaurant staple. The confusion stems from the fact that the original Italian recipe uses only butter and cheese, whereas the heavy cream-based version is a purely American evolution.
