    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.

      We live in a capitalist society for individuals and socialist society for corporations, which feels the wrong way round.

    We have a legal system that protects the rich and punishes the poor. Luigi gave us a taste of what the opposite could look like.

      Should I DM the mod of this community and double check if it’s okay for me to upvote? Oh silly me… this is lemmy. Of course it’s okay to upvote this fact of life!

        I’m assuming this is a reference to something that I’m going to say Reddit has done?

    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…

    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!

    Good for them. And you’re not employees. It’s gig work. If you’re living off dashing you’re the loser.
