Serephina posted:'Dominating' an industry by destroying 3/4s of the market doesn't sound all that great. It'd be pretty different if for every competitor's employee that got cut back, he hired a new person, but by his own math that's not what's going on. This isn't (eg) tech manufactoring where the race to the bottom makes a better product, this is Tourism where the entire point is to cultivate a sustainable industry for locals (BY NOT PRICE COMPETING WITH THE LOCAL MIN-WAGE FACTORY JOBS). Exactly, he's not doing to altruisticaly as was suggested, he's doing it to make money. Which he is doing. Also lol at thinking race to the bottom makes things better in tech.

Hobo Clown posted:When my hippy aunt and uncle got married in the early 80's they each took the other's last name using hyphens, and so the kids grew up with a hyphenated last name. My cousin got married a few years back to a guy with a regular but four-syllable last name, and they did the exact same thing resulting in a new two-hyphen, eight-syllable last name. It was literally about 25 characters long. Everyone should just Portmanteau their names together, great idea.

Faking your death online, even with good reason, almost never sticks even with a fully fake persona, if you've already been successfully doxxed how did you think this could possibly work Hmmm good point, maybe the doxxing and death threat ARE her fault.

Invisible Clergy posted:"Why won't my sister perform thousands of dollars of unpaid labor for me? WAAAAHHHH!" People keep saying free, but they're paying $2000 for it, which is the opposite of free. The OP also doesn't say they have to babysit 6 kids for the holiday, just occasionally look after them when other adults go on rides. If the sister did the bare minimum and stopped the kids eating too much sand for half an hour whilst someone went on a ride then it sounds like that would be enough here. The OP is also happy for her sister not to do any of this and just not pay for her to go on holiday with them. The little sister has had 3 holidays out of it and should just call it good from there.

Mr. Lobe posted:Citations Needed did a great episode about how this scrimping and saving poo poo is bullshit. Her sister sucks in a big way. It's nice that the doctor himself seems like a decent man, though. Wonder what he saw in the sister, considering. So for a while we were (and still are) considering building our own house so we were looking into the costs etc and the mortgage break points etc and it just wasn't making sense financially because you just couldn't get a mortgage for many parts of the process. So we looked into other people who did it and told stories and even wrote books about how they built a house so cheaply. Every single one of them, and I do mean every single one, the land the house was built on was gifted to them by a family member. So of course it's easy to build a cheap house if you're not paying for the land. (This is in the UK where land is relatively expensive just now) The scrimpers are usually the same, they start out with lots of money and just continue to have lots of money.

Or as you said to circumvent tipped wage laws. The employer stealing something with a literal paper trail that any of the wait staff could p easily document is not really a flawless wage theft strat. How little faith you have in humanity ability to be shittty? In the UK at least loads of restaurants where taking 8%-15% of all card tips as an 'administration fee' for processing it. It became a huge story and most places have stopped doing it, but that's just until the hooha dies down, then it'll creep back in. That's not even getting into the places where your allowed to pay someone less than minimum wage and make it up with tips.

That's why they considered the people in Ukraine to be Russian because their first language is Russian, whilst the Ukrainians who speak Ukrainian are not Russian.
