The ride keeps going until someone decides to get off.
This is vastly a US employer issue and unfortunately an adopted US culture that has just been accepted.

Reply to LPT Request: Dealing with neck pain for the past 3 days, what should I do next? What can I do in the future to prevent this? by DaisyClaims
The only things I see you may not have tried is:
-
a TENS. Small electrodes attached to minor variable strength shock/tensor system. I have never found anything that totally works, but over a few week period it slowly can knock the pain down a notch or two. Again, this is not an attach electrode and problem goes away. For me, it just seems slowly better over time. And I would use it for multiple sessions per day and even go to sleep with it.
-
CBD/THC. WARNING: POTENTIAL ILLEGAL in your area. I can never tell immediately if CBD is doing anything. But I know I take THC tincture at night to help with sleep and I also include some CDB. I have tried skipping the CBD for a few weeks or a month and I noticed my upper shoulder/neck area seems to become sorer or more stiff. So nothing concrete but it seems to help.
Again, neither of these permanently fix my neck issues, but they are the ones I found that helped me. Knock it down a few notches.

It might be helpful to consult a doctor to determine the cause of your neck pain and create a tailored plan to alleviate it. To prevent future pain, it's important to practice good posture and make sure to take breaks from any strenuous activity. Additionally, you could try doing some gentle exercises to strengthen the muscles in your neck and upper back.

Reply to LPTR: I get disproportionately angry whenever somebody in my immediate family does something wrong and always end up regretting my reaction. how can I control myself in the moment? by roastedpepper17
Good for you for seeking help. Try to ignore the comments that are pure judgement and no advice.
You need to ask yourself - why you get so mad over mistakes? Maybe you were brought up in an environment that wasn’t safe to make mistakes in? If so, you’re now making your house an environment that isn’t safe to make mistakes in. You have to talk to yourself. Tell yourself you want to break the pattern. Tell yourself everyone makes mistakes. Tell yourself you should have been allowed to make mistakes in the past. Tell the person you lost your temper with that you’re sorry and all the things I listed above.

Servers should take it up to the businesses paying them less than $3/hr, all of which gets eaten by taxes.

Think through what a good reaction would be for some common situations and remind yourself often of exactly what you will do in that situation. It’s usually the same types of things over and over, so your reactions are more habitual than anything. Have some new reactions prepared, and after a while your habitual reaction will be more like you want.

It won't. Employees embrace the idea of getting low pay from their employers.

You’re bragging about treating servers like your personal slaves and encouraging others to do the same.
Funny how you blame the business owners for not taking responsibility and yet won’t take any responsibility yourself judging by all of your comments

I guess there's no way of fixing this system. Employers should keep pushing for low wages.

Lol sort of. Also, if you tip 0% in front of a girl look at their reaction. 👀
They either think you’re broke or selfish… neither help you get the girl 😬

>By not tipping, you're affecting someone's ability make a living.
It's the business owner that is affecting someone's ability to make a living by not paying them enough, not the tipper.

I would go to a doctor to rule out something serious before trying anymore DIY remedies.
But if it’s “tech neck” I got a neck stretcher cushion that looks like a big foam roll. I lay on it for 15 min a day and my neck feels so much better. I can turn my head without feeling any tightness at all. So it helps with tension but not sure about more severe issues.

You’d think, but that’s just not how it works. I’ve noticed service tends to be worse in places it’s not traditional to tip.. they make the same money regardless, why do anything above and beyond for you? Minimum effort makes the same money

It isn't per day though. It's per pay period.

I agree with your. I had some ugly neck pains and changed my pillow. Did a world of difference for me.
