    Oboro what kind of coffee shop is it? large chain or local place?

    A local place is more likely to be able to pay you quickly I think. A large chain will probably have to churn it through the usual payment system and that may take longer.
    it's not a coffee place, it's the coffee counter in a Safeway

    so yeah probably a whole lotta lag time

    whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooops

    Work at a paid today temp agency on your days off for a couple weeks.

    I don't think lesbians are faking, I mean true most lesbians still love a dick inside of them, they just don't the man to come with it, and that is why there ar such things as dildos and vibrators, and your god given hands.

    But if you're using a dildo why not just get a man m i rite!?

    No, you're wrong. The reason most lesbians are lesbians isn't because they don't like dick, they don't like men. The way men treat them like shit, use and abuse them, you know that whole nine yards. So lesbians still want dicks in them, and boy am I glad their are dildos and vibrators.

    The 'greatest generation' are lousy fucking tippers I'll tell you that much

    They just forget to adjust for inflation. They're tipping you in 1948 dollars. So giving you two dollars is tantamount to buying you a car.

    I have never actually received any kind of explicit government assistance

    I sort of want to retain that high ground, but I will consider the idea Riemann

    honestly, it's fine, it's just boring

    $1/day is a fine budget for meals so far and will bear me out three weeks from Tuesday. I'll be sick of it, and I can't afford to take any buses anywhere, or do anything, but I can get by on what I have right now without leaning on social services or credit.

    Breaking my entitlement/indulgence habits is a worthy enough goal, too.

    Rent's not an issue, I'm paid through at least November 1st and the extra $800 in deposits beyond that gives me a bit of leeway if I'm going to be a few days late or whatever, somehow. It's just food budgeting + other things, but I can get by without.

    I remember Jon Stewart Calling WWII America's "feel-good war" and it struck me as pretty accurate. Funny too.

    I absolutely hate the phrase "The Greatest Generation."

    Tom Brokaw is kind of a twit, but you can't deny the fact that they worked their asses off to save this country, and without the GI bill American anti-intellectualism would be even more prevalent.

    Seriously, can you picture Gen X pulling off that shit?

    They swooped in with their racism and a monster industrial powerhouse behind them and aided in turning the tide in a complicated, multifaceted war in which Hitler made several horrible, egregious errors (like turning on Russia). Then claimed all the credit for winning, went back to their untouched-by-war land, fucked like mad, and became super reactionary and conservative. The military-industrial complex, despite Eisenhower's best intentions, grew out of the WWII war machine and became the most bloated, scary force the world has ever seen. That generation then proceeded to insert its tentacles into just about every dictatorship in the world and ran horrible, corrupt actions to install puppet regimes and awful men just because they paid lip-service to hating the Evil Russia.

    Yes the GI bill was great, yes the American economy exploded. But we went on to misuse our newfound power in so many preventable ways.

    Not that the hippies did any better. But to call the generation that happened to go to europe to kill germans in the 40s the "Greatest" is a fucking joke. It also does a disservice to the men who were brave, who were great, by elevating every other schmuck who, like in any generation, was mediocre to "great" status merely by being of that time period.

    I know a lot of lesbians who like dick though, they geet the itch for it ever so often then head over to the local bar and pick up a random stranger to sex. Then after that they are good for another month or two.
    Also when I say a lot I only mean three.

    Also keep in mind that the idea of "upward mobility" being available to the masses began in the 1950s. Prior to that was the depression/industrial revolution, and even if you weren't a factory worker you were expected to follow in the footsteps of whatever work your father did, or at least not seek something "better." My grandfather is a self-taught engineer, and as a teenager he had to buy his textbooks three times because his mother kept throwing them out.

    I always tip around 20% unless my server is bad about keeping my glass filled with water. If I sit with an empty glass for more than five minutes and the restaurant isn't busy, you're doing it wrong.

    What do you consider an adequate tip?

    15% of what the bill is would be an adequate tip.

    yeah 15% is 'you did a decent job taking care of us, no unpleasant experiences.'

    if I do everything right, am courteous, kind, and attentive and I get below 15% I am going to want to shit in your to-go box.

    20% is 'you obviously went out of your way to ensure that my meal was a success. thanks'
    I give 15% minimum no matter what, no if the server is excellent then I will give up to 30% depending on how excellent.

    I've had absolutely terrible service before. To the point where we had to walk up and fill our own drinks while the waitress was sitting down talking with the cook and ignoring us while we did it. Should we still of tipped 15%?
