If you’re a restaurateur in the US seeing this, quit adding extra fees on the check. If I see “healthcare fee”, or “energy fee” or anything like that or, worse, a fee that’s specifically labeled to advance a political agenda, I will never return to your establishment. It’s bad enough that you’re not paying your workers enough, positioning them to be, essentially, official beggars (tipping).

I’m not going to restaurants to be reminded of my surroundings. Quite the opposite.

Ironic

Agree. Just raise your prices and bake in whatever you need to. The 5% fee on the $30 Reuben is a slap in the face. make it $32 and move on.

I agree with you 100%. I do see how restaurants face a bit of a prisoner’s dilemma though - the first one to bake the fees into their prices will be perceived as being more expensive than competitors. The unfortunate reality is plenty of consumers window shop on prices before coming and spending money.

I can assure you they don't care

As someone who used to consult restauranteurs, they do, but they’re scared of change even more.

I figured I’d give them a freebie here.

Unless it hurts their bottom line, they don’t care if you personally boycott them.

I’m far from the only one.

I'm the hiring mgr for designers in my org. I recently discovered pay band information given to me by the HR generalist I'm working with on hiring was outdated and updated bands had been released over the summer (prior to my hire date). The outdated information had led me to believe a prime candidate was out of range. Aside from incompetence, can anyone think of a reason why HR might have withheld information about the pay bands? I assume mgrs see the full monty when it comes to pay...right?

I just spoke with a software architect that went back to school to learn software engineering after law school because it was more lucrative and had less hours. He’s worked his way up and has the skills and authority to work 6:30am-10am and gets to work remotely. We discussed that results/outputs is better than billable time like in law and public accounting. Yet, his parents and others would view him as “lazy” but he does his job and makes a fantastic living. Time>Money and Results>Hours
