    High school students jailed for sagging pants

    Ahhhh the old saying "Pull your damn pants up!!" I'm so tired of seeing so many people walking around with their damn underwear hanging out. He was told many times to pull up his pants and he refused. Community Service? Yeah right, like that will teach him anything. What is really going to...

    What brands of blu ray players?

    I got a Blu Ray Player built into my PS3 and PS4. No need to get an actual player for BR movies. The PS3/PS4 plays movies much faster than Blu Ray Players, IMO. I'm basing this on the fact I know how fast the movies load up compared to how slow they load on my parent's Blu Ray Player...

    Pit Bull to Join New York Police Force’s K9 Unit

    I've always loved pit bulls. And yes they do get bad rap from the general population. It's all about how they are raised. They are one of the most loyal dogs ever.

    Social Security Office

    I always go to the Office for these things as the phone is nothing but a bunch of freaking computerized bullcrap. She is full of crap. I have an email address for my case manager and I contact her when I have questions and issues with certain things. They have to accommodate you or they are...

    Deaf EMT 'better than some hearing staff' with Bethlehem ambulance company

    Same here WDYS. My sense of smell is crazy. I can walk down a hallway and take a sniff and figured out who has walked down the hallway before I got there. One place I used to work, a mother and daughter worked there. The daughter and I were good friends. I can tell when her mother is in the...

    Facebook

    At one time I used to have over 500 'friends' on my facebook page. Now it's down to 111. We'lll 110 now that Sono has deleted his account, damn you man. Just ignore those idiots. LOL Those 400 or what not, were dramatic and people whom have nothing nice to say. I don't tolerate idiots...

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    Now that's funny, they added the Gratuity to your bill and at the bottom there is a line for "tip ____". *rolleyes* The food sales tax is not a tip. That's the state's tax that is collected.

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    Yes I like salads, a decent Cobb Salad or Julienne Salad. But to order one from a fast food place? ahhhh, I'll pass. After learning how they actually process food for fast food business. You will not be able to get me to eat there. I rather go hungry. I know many fast food places have...

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    I hate fast foods. I haven't been to McD or Burger King in over 10 years. Same goes for the other type of fast food places. Thank god. Some restaurants you can call ahead if you are on your way if you know your order. They usually ask 'for here or to go'. A decent restaurant in my...

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    I guess any way a company can stick it to you and make some extra money, they are going to find a way. LOL Most restaurants in my neighborhood starts with the usual, "For here or to go?"

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    I bounced this Automatic Gratuity on my Stepfather who worked in the restaurant business longer than I have. He says that it's usually for tables larger than 5 and if it's listed somewhere on their menu in fine print. It's part of the bill. There is not escape from it. If you had really bad...

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    WDYS, Wow, I'm surprised. From the link I provided, it seems to only happen with large parties. I noticed you stated, you get a city meal tax and a sales tax. Sounds like you were in NYC or some major city like Chicago or LA.

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    I've never had a bill where the tip was automatically added to the bill, yet. But I can give you this link to give you an idea on that subject. And so have I. LOL So many people who join the restaurant business thinking it's an easy job. It's not. It's the most stressful job ever. You...

    Restaurant see profits triple after ditch tipping

    Don't compare Wait Staff to Cab Drivers. In the US, restaurant wait staff makes HALF minimum wage, that's around $3.50 to $3.75 an hour. The rest of their income comes from tips. If you don't tip, Wait Staff gets screwed. General rule of thumb, tip 15%. If you had bad service (waiter was...

    If you had the money would you open an Papa Johns?

    As someone who's been in the restaurant/bar business for going on 30 years. I would never ever open a restaurant. For every 100 restaurants/bar that are open, 99 of them are closed by the end of the year. I've seen so many businesses that are run into the ground that are not clean, disgusting...

    Why do you hate going to the Dentist?
