Correction: pay back a small percentage of what you stole
This whole tipping culture is reaaaallly hard trying to land here northern EU and I absolutely hate it, I refuse to tip anyone. Employers, pay your employees a living wage, it shouldnt be up to customers generosity. You cant? Then sounds like you should charge more of your customers, downsize your business until you can… or go out of business, since sounds like your profitable business is not actually profitable.
Of course there’s always the option of begging the government to bail you out, and then they do for some bizarre reason.

I wonder if you could create an argument for this blatant disparity and how punishments are meted out to show how penalties for shoplifting and personal theft crimes are cruel and unusual. If stealing 17 million comes with less penalty than stealing 1700 then the penalties for 1700 are therefore unusual right?
I suppose step 1 in that line of thinking is ending prison slavery and the systemic violence prisoners and guards inflict on the incarcerated.
Not that we can’t do two things at once…
This is very likely to be the future of AI law once AI is good enough.
I’m sure this global company only did it in NY for some reason though, better not look into this globally. Wouldn’t want to do that now!
Maybe only NY had the foresight to make this practice illegal?
Dash that money
Good for them. And you’re not employees. It’s gig work. If you’re living off dashing you’re the loser.
Hello bootlicker, you don’t get any prizes for sucking the parasite corporations dick. Did you know that?
