I gotta be honest. I have to make a fair amount of bucks to sustain the burn rate that my family has grown accustomed to. (code for "spoiled"). And I'm not complaining. In fact, I'm grateful for the amazing blessings living in this country has afforded me.
I say that to say this: not one vendor owes me an apology for trying to make a profit. To support their family. Or their employees families. And while I will jump on a good deal when it fancies me, I am far more likely to buy based on service and product quality.
I am amazed at the expectations of the consumer today. Borders on entitlement. Crazy.
Folks need to try to live on tips sometimes. Might change the way you feel next time you decide what it is worth to have some college kid, or single mom, or old widow serve you your grits.
Rant over.
