A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Also weird that the restaurant pays the staff the absolute bare minimum and you need to supplement their income based on how much you order.
I'm not sure what's confusing here. You pay exactly the price you see on the menu.
(Plus ~10% tax based on which state and town/city you're in. Plus ~15-20% tip. Plus sometimes a mantatory "gratuity" or whatever they're calling it. Plus parking sometimes, unless you remember to validate it if the place supports that. Look it's a lot of random things and even I can't keep track of it anymore.)
After reading and understanding the fineprint, I've now forgotten what I wanted to order in the first place. LOL
