shouldn’t the federal minimum wage apply to everyone who is doing work in the US? This seems like fraud
This practice is rampant across industries and only getting worse. We must demand an end to it through legislation.
I would just unplug the camera and computer. Every day. Even if I wasn’t buying anything.
Fuck this business.
Be sure to wear gloves.
Why?
Because a person 8000 miles away can’t wipe down anything so the place has to be dirty
Because you don’t want to leave fingerprints behind when you unplug something on camera.

Okay but like… how are they gonna count out my change?
In Japan, you order from a vending machine, pay the machine, get a slip of paper, and hand it to the cook.
I think that system is fantastic.
I also love the amount vending machines Japan has. I’d love to have machine for tea or late night ramen around every corner.
Not what you want to hear, but it sounds like you just want a kettle
Haha. If those two were the only things offered in vending machines in japan, then yes. But they don’t.
