I can’t speak for the whole country but where I work people really do just piss on the floor.

There are 24 (out of 50 total) us states with no big four teams.

According to the DOL, an employer may not pay their employees less than $2.13 per hour even if they make enough tips that they’d still be making minimum wage just off of tips. So there is a separate, lower minimum wage for tipped workers.

At the same time though, tipped workers still have to make the full (federal) minimum wage. If your $2.13 per hour plus your tips only come out to $6 per hour, your employer has to pay the other $1.25 per hour.

Enforcement is another issue, of course, but tipped workers have the same minimum wage as everybody else. The tipped wage just allows businesses to count tips as wages up to a certain point. If a tipped worker is only being paid $3 per hour because they didn’t get enough tips, that business is stealing their labor and needs to be smacked.

The post is referring to leftists who supported Assad because he was backed by Russia and Russia is hostile to the West.

Enemy (Russia/Assad) of our (tankies) enemy (the west)

Edit: I should say that I’m taking specifically about what the post has to say in regards to Ukraine. IDK that there are many tankies out here supporting Israel.

If you stretch a rubber band it gets longer. The two ends of the band get farther apart. This might be easier to imagine with a broken rubber band rather than a loop. If you stretch a lead, whether in sports, politics, or anything else, the gap gets larger. The two sides get farther apart.
