    I hate that these are the people I spend most my time with. I like my coworkers just fine, I’ve grabbed a beer with a few. Made unexpected friends. I just hate that I’m forced to spend most my time with a bunch of people whose collective mission is to make money for someone else, and that soneone else is the person who gets to spend a majority of their time with whoever they dam well please.


  • Sure, if I’m in Italy at some fancy restaurant, give me a nice menu to peruse. But most restaurants are turn and burn establishments that make money off volume and I don’t want their dirty menu when I’m trying to get cheap happy hour food after work or quick lunch take out.

    All the nicer restaurants I’ve been to either have physical menus as the standard, or it’s a more “hip” place and they have them upon request.

    This is weird how it’s been such a cultural dividing line. It’s like the last place consumers feel like they have any influence and are leaning hard into it
