absolutely love to hear it

This would have been the more applicable bumper sticker👆🏻

It’s misleading to CONSUMERS, when a customer leaves a tip, they’re expecting that the tip goes to the workers, not the owners/investors’ bottom line.

That scheme sounds exactly the way DoorDash was withholding full tips from their drivers and boosting their own bottom lines. DC did successfully sue them for it. Wow, if Shyndigz is still doing that, it is so wrong.

> settlement with DoorDash, Inc., a food delivery service, requiring it to pay $2.5 million to resolve allegations that it misled D.C. consumers and used tips left for workers to boost the company’s bottom line. …

> the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) alleged that from 2017 until 2019, DoorDash misled consumers to believe that their tips would increase worker pay, when, in fact, tips were used to subsidize DoorDash’s payments to its workers.

Might be just a quarter. Haven’t been in 2+ years, so I might have memory fog. If there’s still a park at Pole Green I think they had a half there too? Again, this was 2+ years ago so I could be wrong. Charlottesville, Southside, and Woodstock are all newer parks in VA that have bowls you might like too if you’re down to travel a bit!

I upvoted you! But we are apparently outnumbered.

Just constructed so it should be smooth still.

The active calls page switched from live listings to delayed ones not long ago, also. It claims to be on a 15-minute delay but it's more like 20 or 25. Looks like the police don't like the public to know what they're doing.

Aside from what tennisprofosho said, a very minimal time is spent doing that. I've worked in a restaurant as a waiter and dealing with carry out orders. Charging 20% on takeout is straight up criminal.

Are you sure? The last time I heard someone claim this about a different restaurant, it was a tax line with meal and sales tax combined. It would be so stupid and easy to get busted for fraud doing this.

Ohhh man. Get ready to buy some tools, that's for damn sure.

I was in your shoes 10 years ago. There are so many things I wish I had not done that I thought I could do.

I'm not sure how to answer your question either.

Education is expensive.

But I did learn....

Sadly LOTS of bad yt videos

As a Lynchburg native (and now a Richmond transplant—which is much better to claim), this has me cackling 😂

Ok so what is the truth?

I honestly wouldn’t have guessed RVA would have aggressive down voters at saying “maybe by not tipping your to go person you might be punishing the wrong person” but hey, you learn something new every day.

I don’t go places that I know don’t pay hourly for to go if I don’t want to tip. It’s one thing if you don’t know but if you know and just don’t care you’re an asshole in my book

Agreed about everything you said about auto grat. It’s the same concept as them adding the wages to the menu prices. It’s just going directly to the servers instead of increasing the menu 20 percent

Pool boy took that one to heart

looks like laurel only has a small mini these days and the half pipe has been removed :(

does carter jones have a a half pipe? i’m only seeing quarters and ledges/boxes in google pictures

looks like a fun flowy park! do you know how crunchy the concrete is? i am blessed with smooth concrete at the parks where i’m currently at and wondering if i’ll have to bring some hybrid wheels.

This was mentioned before, but their sister store, Fancy Biscuit, has been known to add a tip to bills listed as a tax then has the tip line as well. The counter person confirmed that it was not a tax. I experienced it maybe a year ago and never went back.

People who are mad about auto-grats at 20% or whatever are flat out cheap. They feel they have the power to short change a worker and decide based on their performance what they deserve. I’m positive those same people are not performing at 100% at their office jobs or whatever salaried job they’re at, all of the time. Those same complainers make mistakes, they have bad days, but they’re not getting shorted on their salaries for things like that. But when a server or tipped worker, does something “wrong”, it’s totally acceptable to these cheapskates to dock their pay.

So when people are mad about auto gratuities, they’re just flat out cheap/have power issues.

oooo a small mini looks fun. the old MASSIVE half pipe i see in photos looks far superior tho. rip

i’ll be relocating to rva for my job in the next few months and would love to meet up to skate!! i’ll def need some new skate friends

Just erotic. Nothing kinky. It's the difference between using a feather and using a chicken.“

Fair assessment, I’ve been there a total of 5 times. 4 of them felt amazing but the last one service was lacking badly, food was still on point tho.
