AgentBirdnest: Some are, some are not.
Most don't mind people commenting or disagreeing about things as long as they are respectful, and will try to clear up any confusion about the religion.
There are plenty who can take a joke, and even joke about themselves. Plenty who are so used to being attacked that they no longer mind... and like any group of people, a few who will go totally apesh*t if you say the slightest negative thing.
Then there are the Osmonds... Great signers :-)

NoNewTaleToTell: Thank you! I agree with you, a job is a job and honest work is something that shouldn't be looked down, regardless of what it is.

Servers are treated kinda funny here. There is a minimum wage (which varies by state) but many (if not most) states have a much lower minimum wage for severs than every other profession with the expectation that the gap will be covered via tips, so whereas the usual minimum wage might be say...$8 an hour, for a sever it would be $3. Even in states where the minimum wage is the same for everybody including servers, a lot of restaurants find loopholes to avoid paying it.

Then some restaurants force the tips to be shared around the waitstaff, which is great if you had a bum night and everybody else did good, but obviously stings if it goes the other way around.

Overall as a sever you always have the potential to make far more income than any other (so called) unskilled jobs (after all it only takes one good tip an hour) but you also have the constant potential to get really done over by a bad shift.

LeoLR: Rejoice, dear friends! It's monday. The farthest day from the next monday. :-)
I hope everyone is fine and I wish a good week for all.

l0rdtr3k: You're a very naughty girl, very naughty.
You deserve a punishment.*handcuffs you to a chair in front of a TV*
Now,you'll watch the worst comedies of all time,including several "parodies*!
I envy myself on my evilness.

HypersomniacLive: What are you implying with that "slow dance"? My dancing is pretty lively, thank you very much! ;-P

ddickinson: Nothing at all wrong with a honest days work. That is very unfortunate about the whole wage situation, especially given the difference in condition between other jobs and servers. I guess they use the tip aspect to allow them to pay so little. But at least you will be paid something, just in case there are slow days. It would be horrible to work just for tips, although I hear that tipping is practically mandatory in the US, regardless of quality of service.

Fingers crossed that you will get the job, and that the tips are very nice.

ddickinson: Hello, lovely Owl! *big hug*

I hope you are having a lovely game and I hope your work goes well! *lots more hugs*

ddickinson: I am doing good, thank you. My wife came home early and I have a lovely evening planned, so that has made my day.

I guess the promo is good for newer customers, especially the pinata as each game is worth at least $10, so if you are new or like most of them games then it is a good deal.

Glad to hear your work was marked very good, hopefully it will continue that way for the rest of the year.

*big happy hug*

ddickinson: I guess it is just the same for most religions. When I was at university I had a professor who used to be a chaplain in the Royal Marines and he was very religious, but he was also very open minded and loved theological debates. I used to have some long and lovely discussions with him. I think as long as it is done politely and not just to be insulting, then there is no problem, most of the time it is just people being curious and wanting to learn more about the religion.

ddickinson: Good morning! I hope you are having a lovely start to the week?

ddickinson: I have a sofa in front of my TV, so no chair for you to handcuff me to. :-)

ddickinson: I never knew you were Korean. :-)

And I mean I will be doing slow dance tonight, not your happy dance, although I will be happy non the less. :-)

FearfulSymmetry: That sounds like a lot of fun! I hope you have a really good time.

Yep, I guess it is. I suppose I'm sort of picky about which games I want as well, but then again, at this point I've accumulated so many it would be silly to spend money on something I might not be interested in at all.

I hope so too! *huge hug*

FearfulSymmetry: Hey Owl! Good luck with your work! And what's that disgusting tea for? :P

Grown Ups 1 and 2!*evul laugh*

EndreWhiteMane: If you could all quadruple that attack on Moon, that would be wonderful :-)
Probably have to wait till real life gives her a bit of a break but don't forget. :-)

Howdy everyone, doing pretty well here today, hope y'all are too.
I'm off to look at the new sale stuff. ;)

ElTerprise: Please listen again ^^ : Please owlerwhelm Owl with +1s :D

BillyMaysFan59: *looks at some earlier posts*

Why the hell would I share a picture of myself? 0___o

ElTerprise: Listen everyone: Please send Moon as many +1s as possible :D

AgentBirdnest: If you could all double that attack on Moon, that would be great :-)

EndreWhiteMane: If you could all quadruple that attack on Moon, that would be wonderful :-)

CarrionCrow: Will second that request, since she ninja gifted me as well. =)

Also, good morning/afternoon to everyone who's appeared while I was falling asleep at my desk again.

l0rdtr3k: Fearful-chan is that you?
Fearful-chan!!!!!!!!
*big hug for red haired fox*

ddickinson: All the older users are grumpy with sales now, we have most of the games we want so it makes it hard finding a good deal. I just try to keep in mind all the happy new users, or remember when I first came to GOG and how I loved seeing so many good old games on sale.

AgentBirdnest: To prove you are awesome B-|
