    I wonder if you can use a hacksaw to cut open the container of supplement, take some, suffer harm, and then sue them because you never broke the seal. This is one way, at least, where binding arbitration clauses are less effective than when you're a SaaS customer, where you have zero chance of ever using the product without accepting the EULA

    The implementation of service charge (what it should always be referred to as) is usually a good thing. It means there's more of a consistency in "tips" going to all the staff. But there's always the issue whether all the service charge is shared equally and if the employer is using it to bolster their lower wages. It's been in almost every restaurant in the UK for quite some time.

    I would love to see you dig into the laws about warning labels on consumer items! Target just came out with a new Figmint line and it’s beautiful but every single product says “contains [list of toxic chemicals and heavy metals].” I don’t know if they’re being overly cautious and every company has items with those things, or if they’re actually more dangerous than other products.

    On the point of needing to look at pricing at the airport, sometimes it's just not printed. A few years ago my flight was delayed so I decided to get a drink, no price printed. I figured it would be like $10. It was $15 plus a mystery surcharge that I never did get a straight answer on.

    Cost of living in New York is mainly affected by rent and housing prices, most commodities like food and stuff aren't too much higher prices unless you're going to an upscale restaurant. I'd argue there's almost no easier place to find a good meal for under $10 than NYC, but if you want to spend $1000 on a meal you can also do that.

    Do your research is such a cop out for companies to hide bad practices. We shouldnt put the onus on consumers to catch bad actors.
    Inovation in todays age is moving so quivkly that by the time you are done researching a trend it could be outdated and you either missed out or dodged a bullet. We are basically gambling on everything we engage with because businesses refuse to properly be transparent.

    One thing I hate about Americans specifically is this idea that you need to be pathologically nice to restaurant workers no matter how bad the food is, how bad the service is, etc. It's a way of saying, "Hey, I'm cool. I get it."
    but.. bartenders and nyc serves can pull hundreds of dollars per shift. They even brag about how much they used to make in the food industry when they switch to other jobs lol
    I personally tend to eat out only when socializing now, it used to be a crutch for me.. get home at 6pm, hit up cava or chipotle or a lower end sit down place to avoid doing dishes. But with the prices and poor service these days it's honestly less trouble to eat at home

    • @tyji9162
      @tyji9162 7 месяцев назад +29

      In your example, the bartenders and NYC servers are the exception that prove the rule. Most service workers are not bartenders or live in NYC. The workers at the two places you list are almost definitely underpaid, overworked, and understaffed. It absolutely is your obligation to say to them "Hey, I'm cool. I get it," and not make their shitty jobs even shittier.
