That is why you called me dumb and wrote about how the poor workers should be paid through tips because the ‘employers’ margins don’t allow for decent wages but obviously that was not what you meant

May do but restaurants are struggling because of changes to how they have to do business. Not because of wages. There are sources which state many restaurants are making a killing on alcohol buying bottles and selling them at 10+ times the original cost but yes they are all making a loss hence why the owners all wear tags live in ghettos and ride community bikes to work or more accurately live in the alley behind their business!

Well you are clearly smarter than me no restaurant makes a profit hence why they can’t pay decent wages but people keep opening them and the primary purpose of a business is to make money so I clearly don’t understand business! Or all restaurant owners are so nice that they are feeding people at cost. Lol. You are not naive I was being nice. I do not know what you are!

No they don’t that is a myth to make people feel bad there have been many posts on Reddit talking about exactly this myth from managers and bookkeepers. The super thin margins are because of the money owners are taking out of the business. You are naive!

So you think that restaurants are not making massive profits by expecting saps to pay the staff through tips if the restaurants were regulated properly then wages would go up and profits would go down but no restaurant would go under paying normal wages if that is the case it is not a viable business! Your comment is based on the premise all restaurants run at a loss which is why the can’t pay staff what? You think the owners are losing money feeding people. You are painfully naive!

This post is insane you made all this drama over a tip! A tip is supposed to relate to how well the servers performed. Not a statutory right because American restaurants are owned by arseholes who don’t pay the staff for the work they do! You are ungrateful and instead of enjoying what he did you made it a poor atmosphere by bitching you are entitled as he should find 20% to tip clearly you are loud about him but not forward in doing it yourself!

You don’t say that you used your adult words to explain it was supposed to be a surprise or you communicated anything! Weird that but on the off chance how did you explain it away!

The birthmark thing is weak the make up videos on SM can make a 60 year old look 30 birthmarks would be no problem! He is certain so all you can do is accept his position. The problems you have stem from either secrecy or a lack of honesty and this is how it has manifested. All the excuses sound like just that to him. Why waste your time try to prove a negative, if it is not you, you dodged a bullet! If it is you he dodged a bullet.

You have been signalling interest in this guy and actively choosing to spend time with him and are mad your boyfriend is not controlling. You are not using your big girl words, playing games not clear communication. Just break up with your bf and monkey branch to the new guy it is what you have been setting up all this time don’t worry about how it makes you look if you really cared you would not be entertaining the coworker!
