I’m not denying any of that but this community and others had much more friendly us eu relations just a year ago (edit compared to closer relationships with Russia…ever?) I’m just sad about that, not calling it uncalled for or something

American here. I’m legit sad that we aren’t represented among our brothers, we lost the right due to our behavior

It feels like we called Grandma a bitch at Thanksgiving dinner and the cousins just threw us out

Edit for clarity: I’m not suggesting the US is part of the EU, instead highlighting that we are distantly APART from Europe now (because of our current behavior) and that sucks.

Final edit: this was either poorly worded or poorly received. This was an American speaking to a generally western, freedom loving shitposting group of planefuckers, where I was lamenting the state of American relations with Europe, and that a group of former allies feels the legitimate need to band together in a time of American fuckery.

I’m sorry some took this as butting in or assuming to be a member of the EU or something. It wasn’t. It was an acknowledgement of a low in relations, and this American’s sadness in that.

Canards are sexy.

You’re cooked

It’s not percent of total it’s percent of daily recommendation. I’m not defending that choice but it just isn’t the same.

What the fuck? Is that in your employment agreement? If not stop immediately

Hey PO works great till it doesn’t

Document that shit, leave your phone on recording (discretely away from you).

Hot him with the 👍

Give me the classic green/gray with white or orange/yellow text plz

It’s not fabricated, the machine dispenses a fixed quantity, expecting ice.

A subway sandwich is made to have a fixed quantity of deli meat, even if you ask for no other toppings. You’ll find the sandwich is quite empty in that case. Sure an employee could just load that bitch up, but I bet they wouldnt want their manager to “know” actively. In the case of the coffee, they’d have to mix a second portion of drink in s, m or l, and hope it fits in the m cup. That’s way more obvious, and more effort than the subway employee just slapping a few extra slices on the otherwise empty Sammy.

Indeed folks should prefer small coffee chains. The product is way better and the servings aren’t portioned by a machine, and asking for adjustments at such a place doesn’t put the employee in a spot of potentially getting in trouble.

You don’t know the Starbucks employee’s life, and them following the rules isn’t choicefully being a “drone”. They just want their wage, and want to serve customers shit off the menu.

Arguably they have more “common sense” to keep their manager off their ass by just serving from the menu, rather than doing custom stuff

But they explained it isn’t the choice

You asked for a hamburger with no toppings and are surprised that you just got meat and buns.

They didn’t give you less meat they just gave you less toppings. You’re noticing the sandwich is pretty empty, because you ordered it that way

Mac and cheese with “cantina style”? Throw some Texas toast in there why don’t ya, and hit dairy queen after

Point being who looks at a random meal and says “let’s fill the gaps with Mac and cheese, that’s nutritionally sounds reasoning”

Exactly

Who cares? Some airlines do this too. You just get a boarding group, and pick your own seat
