  • I'd search just for prescription sunglasses and find a model that looks sporty, or regular glasses if you don't want the tint and find a lightweight frame design. If you're committed to something advertised as being designed for running or sports, look at brands like Oakley and either pick a pair with options for prescription lenses or bring it to an optometrist and have them replace the lenses with prescription ones. Or just go to a LensCrafters and check out their sport options. There are lots of glasses made for athletics.

  • Spanglish doesn't mean 50/50 lol. And the "-ado" is absolutely pronounced the way they say it in Spanish, like dorado, tirado, girado, cerrado.

    You're making up random rules and limiting pronunciations in order to make this shower thought true, and it just doesn't hold up to closer inspection.

  • Ah I didn't see that little spiral graph. I agree with you for anyone who keeps their knives sharp. But if you're trying to cut thin slices off a roast and have to choose between a bread knife and a dull chef's knife, I'd likely go for the bread knife. That said, I don't know they intended it that way, and it totally could have just been an error.

  • As a chef, the only inaccuracy I see here is that bamboo cutting boards are good for knives. They are a great, cheap, sustainable option, but the silica content makes bamboo incredibly hard, and it will dull your blades faster than wood or plastic cutting boards.

  • I'm this way 100%. Feels like I'll be able to do it better and be less distracted by questions if I get to know something from the ground up, and just doing it a certain way because everyone agrees it works that way is never satisfying/I never feel like I can trust that completely.

  • In the US, servers and restaurant staff tip like 100% of the time they go out because they know how important it is with our current pay laws, and they know that the waiter expecting that tip isn't the one making the laws or who deserves to be punished for them. So that tip is almost always going to someone else who also tips.

    Btw, don't bother arguing with me that tipping is wrong so we shouldn't do it. I agree that it's wrong, but abstaining punishes the wrong people (servers, not owners or policymakers). So instead of writing a comment, write a letter to you local govt to eliminate sub-minimum wages for tipped workers, and keep tipping poor waiters and drivers til they change something.

  • I've always assumed you pay extra because multiple people have to carry the bag around after you check it, and that's harder/more dangerous at higher weights.

    In warehouses, you gotta go get your lift belt and often a partner if something is over a certain weight, and you aren't covered by workman's comp if you just try to do it quickly without those, so it's a serious hassle.

  • It's not functioning as a thank you, it's honestly just an indication that you're willing to take an extra 5 minutes to do something when the stakes are high.

    If you really want the job, how you treat that conversation might be similar to how you treat a client once you're hired. If you don't really want the job, or you really don't want to send a thank you, that's fine, but with 5 applicants to choose from, wouldn't they opt for the candidate who put in the best/most work?

    I'm not saying it isn't annoying and transactional and a lot to ask, but as someone who's applied for hundreds of jobs, the reason to do it still feels clear.

    It is weird to see the voice actors from long-running shows having aged because their characters look and sound the same as they did a decade ago.
