Judging by your post history, you need to work on your mental health before worrying about others. Stop trying to give opinions on countries that you aren’t even in. Why do you care so much if it doesn’t affect you? This is not a life pro tip and is more of you just being a shitty human being and trying to change some system that you don’t understand

All right then.

But you’d have such an advantage with the swimming you could learn pretty quickly. That said, there must be loads of options. Triathlon?

Are you supposed to tip at places where they just give you drinks like Starbucks? When they have a screen that lets you choose your tip on your $5 drink, I feel obligated but it seems weird given they usually just dispense something premade (at this boba place I just went to, etc.).

These are specifically not for use on the neck

You should probably change your sheets at least every other week, your pillow cases every week. It keeps dust mites and allergens down, and there are a lot of oils and dirt in your hair that can cause acne problems.

You have logic.

I would pay higher prices at a restaurant so the restaurant can pay a better wage.

Maybe they like getting underpaid by employers.

if you live with them is ok to lose your shit about the constant "hold on I don't have my hearing aid in" - "I noticed the fucking tv blaring through the whole house"

or " I don't have a hearing issue you're mumbling"...

What do you mean? I get excellent service when I eat at restaurants. Not every restaurant in the world is in the USA.

We never tip however, we're not in the USA or Canada.

If you can afford it go to a chiropractor. They should be able to ease the pain but also give you some exercises that will help. They may also be able to pinpoint why it happened. For me it was pillows when sleeping (too many), since that visit, no issues.

I'm not the employer. I'm not the one punishing.

Learn to blacksmith or some badass kitchen witchcraft called cooking\baking. Leather working or garment making are useful too.

punishing the person that serves you makes you an asshole not a life pro.

Hmm, what do we have here? A medical issue and minimal information, yet many, many suggestions. This post confirms what that guy said about how stupid most people are.

I'm outside the US right now and the service is excellent. No tips expected.

What if I can afford to tip?

yesss i wanna say anger is nearly always something else deep down

Drain your ego and start giving back to the sport... Coach/teach it to the next generation.

Asking other people to join you in not tipping so you feel less like a shitty person? how about if you can’t afford to tip a low waged worker then don’t eat outside at restaurants, simple as that. everyone dislikes the asshole who doesn’t tip, there’s no profound life tip here

You can still track one, you just have to make an account with Apple when you register it

Just be thankful that you found out earlier than later that it was a dead end road.

Now, you can stay into sports as a hobby or keep it as a career by not being the main actor, as coach for example.

Many say to change sports. If you found swimming boring, try more technical and social sports like inline skating or mountain biking. If you have the coordination, these types of sports are kind on the body and very rewarding.
