Yeah, I'm pretty excited about it. I've run out of propane in the middle of cooking something too many times. And yeah, every time was my fault for poor planning, but now I just don't have to think about it.
Just downloaded The Long Walk a month or so ago after not having read it for a really long time. It's one of those short stories that has always stuck with me.I’ve talked about this before here, but I love the Bachman books. The Long Walk is my favorite King work, and I’m a completist nerd.
McDonalds has an anti-tipping policy bruh, as do most major fast food chains. Also they aren't paying tipped minimum wage they're just paying minimum wage, or thereabouts. My preference would be eliminating tipping from our culture altogether and putting the burden of paying better wages on business owners and creating a better safety net for those on poverty line wages short of mandating a living wage. But til then, don't blame consumers for not tipping at fast food establishments.
This probably deserves some math to be done, but shouldn’t the increase in prices be 20% to make up for the standard 20% tip? Seems like some workers might be making less now? I’m probably missing something, but a quick glance this seems off

I would pay a pretty significant amount of money for a Jesus vest like Leguizamo wore when he played Tybalt. I think I’d look pretty badass.
Always been a 20% tipper at restaurants and bars, usually would tack on 50 cents or a dollar to barista or counter service place.
Since the pandemic started I usually just tip $2 to anyone working at counter or stand (usually a $5-8 expense for a beer, coffee or snack) and now tip waiters 25-30%. These people are front line workers and deserve to be compensated more for their risk.
That being said I'm on board with instituting a living minimum wage and getting rid of tipping all together. It is so nice to now have to tip when you're traveling, although I still usually do when traveling in second or third world countries.
