most workers don’t know them well enough

Or can afford to hire a lawyer to go after the company that employs them for wage theft.

That will only happen when we stop tipping

Don't tip, but also don't think your not tipping is going to change anything except that the people who work as servers who might have liked now think you are an a-hole. I am sure you don't care about this either, also fine, you don't have to care about any other person, place or thing, the world will go on.

All of these things you name are not the servers fault, yet the server is the who gets all the hate and the reduced pay due to the problem people have with tipping. No-one says - wow fishermen get paid terrible but also they don't deserve money for work. I am going to stop buying fish. Every one gets paid like shit, shit on the system not the worker. Fix the system, don't punish the worker for working within the system.

Love that Lemmy is pro worker everywhere except if they get tips. Then it suddenly becomes the workers fault that they have to beg for a living wage while also working full time.

No, if you stop tipping the servers just get paid less and the owners feel nothing for not paying them a fair wage. If you really want to make a change, don't eat out any place that makes you tip, if you have ever seen a tip jar or a tip screen, don't go there. That is how you vote with your wallet, you don't make the workers subsidize your food and not tip.

This comic was not made by someone experienced what its like to work at Applebee's in Oklahoma before, that is for sure.

The source you are quoting is a US law that says tech workers don't qualify to get paid overtime if they are on salary or if they are paid more than $27.63/hour. This has nothing to do with minimum wage, this is a law specifically made to not pay developers overtime for crunch.

Maybe "extreme" was the wrong word, I mean divisive. Its unnecessarily divisive and makes me not want want to label myself as a vegan even if I do only eat plant based.

I am doing the one where you don't eat any animal products or use any animal products. The reason I chose to do this is personal, I am not adopting any ideologies.

They could not have done it. This cat was definitely with me, on my couch napping like a cute little fuzzy-wuzzy-snuggle-bunny when the hotdog went missing.

Is this saying I am not going to be vegan because I am annoyed with vegans? Because I am not sure how this applies, unless you are grouping me with the vegans who are annoyed with vegans.

IWNDWYT!

When I was drinking Thursdays were the only days that I would wake up not hung over because I was moderating by not drinking on Wednesdays so I could tell myself I wasn't a daily drinker. I am 125 days alcohol free today, longest I have ever not drank since I turned 21. I enjoy waking up everyday not hung over now. Don't get me wrong, I am still monster in the morning and 100% do not talk to me before my coffee, but at least I don't feel like a heaping pile of shit on top of being a monster.

As someone who is exploring veganisim right now, this extreme stance is kind of a turn off. Like I'm still going to eat plant based, but this makes me not want to talk to people who call themselves vegan or even call myself vegan either.

United Wizards of the Coast is looking to address protections around layoffs, remote work, and generative AI, as well as sustainable workloads and policies around crunch, career progression, and the removal of a policy that allows Hasbro (which owns Wizards of the Coast) ownership of creative materials made by employees of the company—even what's done outside work hours. Both Kessler and Valentine Powell, a senior software engineer and organizing committee member, cited generative AI and return to office mandates as important issues.

Oh what a suprise, totally reasonable requests. I hope they do well.

I'm terrified this is me. But I'm also equally terrified that I'll forget to share that one obscure story that fits this conversation and it will haunt me for years.
