So it sounds like you pulled it out of your ass then, huh?

Ah yes. Let's not believe rumors of the seedy side of Hollywood. It's a perfect utopia.

I mean rumors of Weinstein's rapes went ignored for decades, so I mean, yeah I'm sure things are good. Dan Schneider is probably a model American too.

Oh look! If you stay two nights, you get one free!

...oh wait... and members save up to 35%* off when booking 3 or more nights (which if weve done our math right is like getting the 3rd night free*!).

Hey well, I guess 35% off is still a solid deal and it is technically like getting a third night free! Oh wait, still paying taxes on the 3rd night. Oh wait, hm that's odd. It says each night will cost $150 after the discount. Which would mean the standard rate would be $230. What happens if I just try to book one night...oh, it's not $230 a night, it's only $170. What the fuck?

Outside of potential cost of course.

I'm going to say this. It's not a left vs. right issue. I work in an incredibly left-leaning workplace. I don't know one conservative there (I'm not one mind you). They wear their masks! Great!

These are also people who some wear it below their nose, take it off to sneeze or cough, hug people, don't socially distance, forget to put it back on when they leave their cubes, etc.

Guess what. It doesn't matter what they support politically. People are fucking dumb, can't follow directions, or are just aloof.

It's interesting because I always tip a good amount (more than before, almost as a form of "hazard pay"). I feel like if I saw a $2 service fee, I might decide to tip less to balance it out. But I guess it works out then? Those who normally tip a lot could balance their tips, and thus this might only affect people who wouldn't normally tip?

I honestly did tip less because I was annoyed they didn't tell me about it when I placed my order. I go there fairly regularly and I mean, $2 is pretty hefty for something just implemented.

Just be upfront and it's cool.
