Went to a restaurant in LA today and when I got the check I noticed that it was a bit higher than it should be. Then I noticed this 18% service charge. So… We, as customers, need to help pay for their servers instead of the owners paying their servers a living wage. And on top of that they have suggested tip. I called bs on this. I will bet you that the servers do not see a dime of this 18% service charge. [deleted a word so it wasn’t a grammatical horror to read]

      I’m sure it’s like every other country where a house out in the country is cheap but Helsinki is unaffordable.

        It’s the same here in Germany except for the cheap house in the country part.

        In canada, I make good money but will never afford a house except butt fuck nowhere Saskatchewan or Manitoba

        My wife and I are actually hoping to permenantly relocate to Finland after many years of pondering. I am in IT so even Helsinki is affordable but we want to live in Vaasa
