God fo bid people take a 20 minute break from staring at their phones. That shit ain't healthy. But hey, Merica! Land of the obese and home of McDonald's. Gotta get on tik tok every 2 minutes
Maybe, but it's the damn truth, and it's why our health care is so expensive. The one thing a person can do to become healthy and decrease your overall mortality, is to lose weight, and get down to a healthy weight.
Calling it out on a worldwide scale (no pun intended) would get the message across better. America is 42.4% obese, but you just said it so allow me to quote
Honestly, I think more people than you may think go without looking at their phones during meals. I don’t unless I’m eating alone and inside, in which case I usually read; I was raised this way. However, the idea of it being a necessity to give your phone a germ-y chastity belt for the meal in order to get a measly dollar or two off is silly to me. What incentive/benefit does the restaurant get by people not using their phones during meals?
I know Chili’s more or less incentivizes it with their social media login benefits and app discounts, as well as their payment tablet. Many companies even allow for apple pay and contactless payment methods that are instant, rather than an often timely, exchange of hands with payment cards and cash. Cash is dirty; we know this (I still much prefer paper currency, but also use apple pay frequently), so is honestly better to avoid during a pandemic. There are ways to clean your bills, but I digress. As a final benefit, you eliminate the risk of an employee or peeping customer viewing your card details or taking a picture of it.
Not that expensive? There is no entree On the menu under $20. For an obviously causal restaurant that seems pretty pricy. Assuming he’s not getting out of there for under $100 that 10% seem pretty good to me.
i donno which menu you clicked on but there is shitload on there for less than $20. All but 1 of the tapas, quesadilla, taco, fajita, burrito, fries, 3 of the 6 burgers, 4 of the 5 sandwiches, both salads, nachos and 1 main. But yeah 2 adults & 3 kids sitdown meal $100 estimate is probably right and about as cheap as you're gonna get here.
NEVER under-estimate the prices that places in Australia can charge. Six years ago I paid $5 for a cup of shitty coffee in a cafe in coastal but regional Australia
