As someone who did not want to see this movie, this was my favorite part. This and the film melting with 10 minutes left and getting free tickets to another movie.
Man, I was working a desktop support job when they first started to use magnets in the laptops for the closed lid mechanism. I was trying to set up a laptop and I for the life of me couldn’t get the screen to turn on.
After like an hour of trying to figure it out and a call to Dell support, I shifted the laptop and the screen turned on. Stupid laptop was so thin the magnet from the laptop under it was causing it to think it was closed.
I hate how every transaction now forces me to pass monetary judgment.
I’d much rather a gratuity be pre-baked into menu prices, so I can easily make purchasing decisions that reflect my financial situation, rather than being surprised at the end.
I hardly go out to eat at all nowadays, partially due to this.
What I find worse is when I go to a resteraunt that I went to today. It was a mexican resteraunt. And it was a sit down resteraunt. However, the food was basically fast food. This was a fast food place, better than taco bell, but maybe worse than chipotle. It was priced higher than chipotle by about 30%. And then you have to tip because its a sit down resteraunt. Except…my server took my order, and then I never saw him again. Never refilled my drink. Never came over to check if everything was ok. And it wasn’t a packed house. I was one of 5 tables, and 3 of the other tables had a different server.
Meaning, this guy had 2 tables to attend to, ignored both, someone else brought my food out, and then I sat there, waiting for the check…and he just stood at the bar, and conversed. Finally I went to the hostess table, and said “do I pay here? Orrr…” and she said “No, your server will be by with the check.”
I felt like asking “Will he though???” After like 15 more minutes he came by, meal clearly done, and he says “So, did you want another root beer?”
And then it asked for tip. Tip for what??? You pressed a few buttons on an iPad, and then ghosted the whole dinning room for 45 minutes.
