@RPHFGO @JoeChiappe @ZafarSobhan @NoContextHumans For all you non-tippers out there.. You should PROUDLY wear a T-shirt that says " I don't TIP" into every restaurant you go to.. You a$$holes are so proud of not tipping, SHOW US!

@RPHFGO @JoeChiappe @ZafarSobhan @NoContextHumans No it isn't mandatory (except for large parties), but you sure look like a cheap ass d*ck if you don't tip. If you are not happy with the service, tell the manager. Tipping IS expected, because the server is making $2 -$3 p/h and is TAXED on the tip YOU didn't leave.

Thoughts?

@RPHFGO @JoeChiappe @ZafarSobhan @NoContextHumans Wrong..got back from Europe and 10% is now expected in several countries. But you probably don't get out much.. too cheap to cook and too cheap to eat out, too cheap to travel. Just cheap!

@JoeChiappe @ZafarSobhan @NoContextHumans Its so good that USA is the only country that has it. Looks really smart indeed.

@FortWorthReport I would dearly LOVE to double my salary every 3 years or so. I'm sorry but if you can't pay police, fire and other civil workers a decent salary, what the heck entitles YOU to ask for a doubling of your salary! You people have some big ones, I'll say! #NOPAYRAISE

Fort Worth voters take another swipe May 2 at whether to raise pay for the mayor and city council members fortworthreport.org/2026/04/19/for…

@rushicrypto I have to pay road tax on my gasoline, and our roads are f*cking tollways now so yes I still have to pay. I don't use the parks, and the very sidewalks you are talking about are crap because they don't fix it! I never had kids so why the hell am I paying for you kids education!

I’m very confused about the number of people who think “property tax” is a sales tax on you home rather than taxes to pay for public services you use every day. “I paid off my home why do i still pay property taxes?!?!?” Oh, did you also stop using the roads and libraries and sidewalks and parks? Not worried about fires anymore?

Hey Congress. You are using AMERICAN WORKERS as hostages, in your political debate, while you go home. Every single Congressman is a criminal, and need to be thrown in jail for theft and fraud. I'm looking at my Senator John Cornyn! No wonder Congress starts with CON!

@ShillingDo66966 @dsmith4825 @lady_valor_07 So your employer shouldn't pay you either I guess, but you probably don't have a job anyway.. probably a welfare baby who thinks the world owes him. Go FO!

@dsmith4825 @lady_valor_07 Same here!! Not my responsibility to pay a waitress or waiter wages

We went to a dinner as a group and had a $500 bill. We tipped $40. We were happy we can be able to give our server something, but her reaction was the opposite. She told us she assumed we're going to give her at least $120. When we asked for the manager, she said she was just joking, but she wasn't smiling at all. Idk, but is $40 tip enough for $500 bill? I just feel like expecting $120 is not realistic. ~Lea Robertson

@SdDehays @lady_valor_07 Then you can eat at home shithead, but you probably can't even cook.. most servers are not even paid minimum wage dipshit. Can you live on $2.85 per hour? I'm not taking about fast food, I'm talking about sit down restaurants.

@lady_valor_07 I decided not to tip in restaurants anymore. Period. They can go fuck themselves. They are getting paid just like any other worker. Why should I tip them.

@lady_valor_07 Was service poor? If not, you're just a cheap a$$ idiot. How would you like to have your pay cut by a cheap a$$ manager without cause? You would be screaming your head off, threatening suit. Most servers don't even make minimum wage, so you screw them out of making a living.

@marktwaalfhoven @SenMarkKelly @Scobleizer We have 3 branches of government. As much as Trump wants to be a dictator, he isn't. Trump doesn't know the rule of law. If Congress would stop being a bunch of limp d*cks and start acting like 1/3 of the government, we wouldn't have a country the entire world is laughing at!

@SenMarkKelly @Scobleizer We have one President. His name is Donald J Trump. He is in charge. Stay in your lane.

Anthropic didn't want their AI tech used for surveillance on Americans or autonomous weapons strikes. Guess what the Trump administration did? Threatened them and then cut off all work with the federal government. This is dumb and dangerous.

@smacktalkinfoo @GeriPerna @Ask_WellsFargo This has nothing to do with FDIC. As others have stated it is regulatory under Federal Law. You getting scammed or using the money for illegal purposes isn't what FDIC is for. FDIC is ONLY if the bank becomes insolvent to protect the consumer.

@GeriPerna @Ask_WellsFargo You want your money covered by FDIC? Answer the question.

I have to VENT! Yesterday, my guy went to @WellsFargo in Florida to withdraw 7k, in cash. The teller called the manager over, and he asked what he was using the money for. My guy said, how is this any of your business? The manager said, we are required to ask. Then he told him he would have to come back tomorrow. My friend went to @TDBank_US in NJ today to withdraw 3k, and the teller asked her what she was using it for. My friend was furious and refused to tell her. WHAT IS GOING ON? THIS IS OUR MONEY! We earned it, paid taxes on it, and it we want to take it home and burn it, we can do that! Has anyone else experienced this?

@Heccles94 You know nothing about economics, taxes, the free market system, or the homeless. You do appear to know how to tell others to spend their money. So YOU invent something worth a trillion bucks and then you give it away. You do contribute to all those causes, don't you? Bet not!

$749,000,000,000 That could house every homeless person in America. Permanently. With change. Erase all medial debt in the USA. With change. Provide clean drinking water for the whole world. End global poverty. For years. Ensure every child worldwide has education.

@AnthropicAI How about a human response for PAYING CUSTOMERS! #GHOSTEDANTHROPIC

Our run-rate revenue is $14 billion, and has grown over 10x in each of the past 3 years. This growth has been driven by our position as the intelligence platform of choice for enterprises and developers. Read more: anthropic.com/news/anthropic…

We’ve raised $30B in funding at a $380B post-money valuation. This investment will help us deepen our research, continue to innovate in products, and ensure we have the resources to power our infrastructure expansion as we make Claude available everywhere our customers are.

@AnthropicAI Your customer service is extremely poor. I emailed my dissatisfaction regarding a billing concern. I have been TOTALLY GHOSTED for a week, except for FIN AI. I sent a follow up, NADA! I am a paying pro customer, and expect a paying customer to get a human response.

@BillfromBoynton @Zanekcteamsters @ClownWorld If you wait tables at a restaurant with a 1500 bill, you worked your way up the ladder. You are a career professional. You didn't jump from Chili's or McDonalds to a restaurant like this. That person is an expert in their field and are paid more. Does you boss make more than you?

@Zanekcteamsters @ClownWorld I believe you are missing my point. Server one worked just as hard as server two. But one gets paid much better because it's steak and lobster instead of tacos. Serving those items is the same.

Someone shared this after running up a nearly $1,500 dinner bill and being shown suggested tips close to $300. They left $25 instead and say the staff’s attitude changed immediately. Do you think that’s fair, or are tip expectations getting out of control?

@BraddrofliT No let THIS sink in. I have a CHOICE. I choose NOT to watch the halftime show. I have ALWAYS been able to turn the channel. I have often not liked the halftime show. I change the channel. That does not make me a racist. It means I can use a remote. Quit making this about race.

History has seen this playbook before and it never aged well. It wasn’t about pride or culture then, and it isn’t now. It’s about division dressed up as entitlement. Let that sink in

@xsandman00 @tsteele93 @MatrixMysteries @grok Look it up dumbass. Most loans, especially mortgages and car loans, are amortized Interest (standard loan schedule), a form of simple interest with fixed payments.How it works: Monthly payment stays the same. Early payments more interest, Later payments more principal.

@palmfox @tsteele93 @MatrixMysteries @grok You’re just a dumbass, they don’t front load anything. You pay interest on the amount you currently are borrowing. This is how all interest works. 🤦‍♂️

An American buys a $138,000 home. She sends the bank $9,286. After interest, taxes, and insurance take their cut, ONLY $952 actually touches the loan. $8,300 is PURE interest. This isn’t paying down a mortgage — it’s watching your money disappear before you can breathe.

@tsteele93 @MatrixMysteries @grok This is all in the contract that is signed & hopefully read, by the buyer. Banks have been front-loading interest on loans for years! Called Rule of 78. Pay more than the minimum & note the overage goes to principal. If you can only afford the minimum, you can't afford the loan!

@grok if someone buys a home for $138,000 at 6.99% mortgage rate for 30 years and is paying about $1,200 a month including taxes and insurance, how much would they pay down on the principle and how much would they pay in interest after the first year. Also, if they paid one extra payment of $1,200 each year, how much would they save over the life of the loan and how much shorter would that term end up being?

@tonydpoison I'm not sure where they are guaranteed to receive these things. The only thing they are guaranteed is life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It doesn't promise money, shelter and food. Those you have to work for. Unfortunately too many just want a government handout.

If I say everyone should have access to food, clothing and shelter and your first response is "But..." Then our worldviews are irreconcilable and further engagement is wholly unnecessary. The end.

@Suzierizzo1 WRONG! This is NOT a handout. I paid into it for 50 years. Social security is NOT a government handout, it is paying me back what I put in. If you don't want me to take the benefits don't take MY MONEY in taxes! Let's try taxing only Democrats!
