They are supposed to, and the bigger chain restaurants are much easier to hold accountable for that as opposed to independent family run restaurants/bars. My comment was more meant as a “I wish we changed to minimum wages for all positions so tipping was actually a bonus instead of me feeling personally responsible for this worker’s well-being” if that makes sense?
Fun fact: because they are “tip-earning employees” most employers are not obligated/do not pay their servers minimum wage. $3/hr for many server positions is high.
I fully support that tips should be based on the service received (I typically tip 15-30%), but I would much rather we go the European route have the tips factored into the bill, or just *pay them minimum wage*
The American tipping culture is pretty outrageous. Good customer service should be part of what makes someone a valuable employee
I think either way is totally acceptable, but the feeling I’m getting here is more “they are standing on my side because they are here for me” and just further echoes of the thoughts that it could take the spot from one of her friends
In addition to providing laughter, today Crick taught me that wearing my coat will NOT prevent me from getting pneumonia…I too have been led astray by my grandmother
While all of the points about therapy portrayals are definitely valid, as another victim of abusive relationships, thank you Josh for writing about very real feelings and emotions that I have had. And I 100% advocate talking with your current partner (when you’re ready, though you never really feel ready) about past experiences and talk with them about how the things they say/do can be affecting you

Rough stuff first thing in the morning. Good on you Eric for growing a pair and getting the fuck out of there
Especially after the last two weeks, there is clearly a LOT to unpack here…
GroomsWoman: One rule that wasn’t mentioned–hooking up with a fellow groomsperson at the bachelor party would not be the move
Fully support the 2 bedroom if it’s in your budget. Gives everyone their own space especially in the day/evening

Don’t know why this got a downvote unless it was out of pure jealousy, thank you!
