It's becoming a bit more like that with service charges automatically added to bills in the UK, but only for restaurant meal, never for anything else.

Restaurants operate on notoriously small margins and are tough to make it as a mom and pop, a lot of the time.

Then charge more for your food. If your business model is unsustainable without paying your staff, you shouldn't be open.

I was so shocked by the amazing customer service the Japanese workers gave me but never asked or expected a tip.

That's how the entire world works outside of NA.

I think that is because the sub incident had potential to have a happy ending…for at least 5 seconds.

You realise had the same time and effort been used to rescue the people from this incident, many more lives could have been saved right?

It's not just people missing. It's the efforts of the various organisations around the world that have put huge amounts of effort into finding them when they could've saved a lot more (hell 1 more is a lot more) had they focused on larger disasters.

But because the victims are Arabs and refugees, nobody cares.

Please just focus on the capsized boat if you want people to focus about the capsized boat.

The story is about how news media focus on certain topics over others. It's using the Titan submersible and the Libyan disaster as examples for it.

The money, time and effort to save the Titan submersible has been huge, whereas the same effort has ignored this incident.

People will pay more attention to this if it’s its own story. “What about” tends to get poor coverage and media attention.

There have been articles about this, they don't get any traction nor do they get sympathy because of the people on board the boat.

I mean they're not... There's been some amazing films recently.

Would be a good price for Arsenal though I'm a bit surprised West ham aren't hanging in for more of a bidding war. Maybe they want to get the money to start buying replacements quick

Only time I pre order is about a day before launch if reviews come out early so I can preload/get the physical copy on day one.

Are we guaranteed to go on this weekend with the situation in Canada right now?

If something is alright, then it doesn't have high highs, it is just a plain old 6-7/10. A "pretty alright" game to me would be something with no real highlights, no real low lights.
