If anything, I wouldn't worry about this given the article. The majority of the incidents shown are homeless people berating retail staff over welfare card issues; technically they would be charged with trespassing because the police h

I'm sure famously low margin, high risk places like restaurants can easily raise employee wages anywhere form 2 to 6 fold. As I said downthread, all a restaurant has to pay is $2.13 an hour if they make enough tips to earn an effective

BeetleB, Most of that old-style retail is dying out though. The department store model of Sears and Macys lost to the big-box model of walmart and best buy. These days you are lucky if there is enough staff to run the registers in a pinch;

you know that the actual minimum wage of someone who makes $30 or more in tips a month is $2.13 right? By law, if they don't make enough tips in a week to earn an effective wage of $7.25 an hour, the employer has to pay them that much.

I don't think it fixes i would say, but more likely people wouldn't waitress for very long then, just like they don't stay at stores or other service positions for every long. Part of the reason tips work is that those restau

Generally you have little to no service interaction in these stores. The people in them are order takers, not sellers; whenever they are pushed to sell, the customer finds it intrusive since normally its value-less or negative products (cou

I don't think they are getting paid that much. I think in general people exaggerate. Maybe at peak times it hits $30 an hour, but a lot of the week it can be dead or slow. This is part of why we don't make sales based on commissio

There's actually no incentive to keep low paid service jobs for any length of time. One of the saddest things in retail for example is the longer you work, the less you actually make; retail pay is so low that your raises will be less

the problem with retail specifically is that you are never paying enough to make that a credible threat. If anything, your staff might just turnover every two years naturally, especially if it's only a part time job. Most retail in an

Um..medium hourly income in the USA is $21 an hour or so. I live in a decently expensive state and skilled trades, managers, and various lower-tier technical people make $30 an hour, and that's double the state's upcoming minimum

It's an extra on the Dracula Complete Legacy collection; I don't think it's rare or anything, usually it gets bundled with Universal's collections of Dracula films i think.

Most people trying to do this will make little or no money, and the sheer amount of competition and effort required to be the maybe 10% of the top people who can make a living on it is too much for most. And there are less and less structur

I don't think so; WSB is too large for that on Reddit, and if anything Reddit is much more anti-trump than anything now. This is more center-left people joining in, similar to BLM in tone I think. Not the same overlap but I'm sure

It's probably more that PC gaming is just saturated anyways, and even throwing money at it won't work unless there is a clear and compelling advantage or hook. There are way too many market killers that just suck up time and atten

the problem is we aren't going all the way, and removing societal support from those who use their personal autonomy for that kind of self abuse. The thing is, you want the nanny state to take care of drug users instead of jailing them

Decriminalizing possession doesn't stop the need for people to steal to afford drugs, though. It also means people who do them will only interface with the criminal justice system when they commit these kinds of support crimes. They wo

To be honest, can you blame them? The petty crimes fueled by drug use don't go away if you decriminalize it. We keep throwing money at homelessness but it doesn't seem to work at all because a lot of the problem homeless really ne

Not sure work would go that far, to be honest. I figure just the increased load and charging ports would be all you could expect them to do.

...given the near constant fixation here of various recreational drugs as wonder cures, I increasingly do not trust articles from "hippies in lab coats." The turning point for me was an article about using LSD for couples therapy.

This assumes you only charge at home because you can, and only work first shift. A lot of people may wind up charging at work because that's the only place that could really make charging points accessible with no worries. At least 5%

If you believe stamp collectors are the source of all evil in the world, and congregate with other anti-stamp collectors to share your common struggle, maybe. It's one thing to not believe in unicorns, it's another to define yours

People also are supposed to charge their cellular phones and laptop batteries in the same manner. You'd be surprised if you ever worked in retail how many people forget this, their phones die, and they scrambled to buy cords to do so.
