  • Omg, so many opportunities for evil:

    • retrieve earplugs from purse, put them in, press the button, hand the staff a $5 cash tip and a pair of earplugs.
    • loiter outside offering pairs of earplugs to anyone entering the business
    • call the business, pose as a vendor so I get transferred to the manager, and play a recording of the sound.
    • leave fake reviews claiming the employees are on a covert malicious compliance strike and to show solidarity everyone should push no-tip.
    • before hitting the button ask to speak to the manager and push no tip while making eye contact with them.

    The real problem is the employee who didn’t create the policy would generally be the person subjected to any mischief so it’d lose its fun about the time the manager barred me from coming back the fourth time I no-tip stared them down.


  • Agreed, but like how do you fix it? Moving is expensive and difficult the farther away from your starting point you go. That’s something that has to be prioritized and even then, it’s not always attainable.

    Without at least some economic privilege and luck, it’s not an option for most people. Certainly there are a group of people who would like to move and cannot because of reasons they find more compelling.

    The people who would move but can’t, aren’t all of the people that don’t move far from where they are born. It could be complacency, but it could also be contentedness. The people who stay put usually have much stronger social structures than people who move around, which is not nothing.
