Water utilities are very slow to upgrade their software. I remember when they were doing a database migration at my old company (which somehow cost $2 million for a department with a $10 million/year budget) and the cybersecurity guys restricted access to the old database through a slow-ass VM because it was easily hackable due to using some old version of sql that wasn't secure or something.

Operators are generally very smart and dedicated to keeping things running well. It's just the tools they're given are so limited.

Obviously this is different due to a power outage, but just in general there ought to be a better way of dealing with excess products that were not sold due to any reason. It's not like people are going to game an entire grocery store and stop buying food and then have 10000 people who are normally customers all go dumpster diving as if it's some master plan of getting food without paying.

Man that sucks for him, but i'm not tipping 5€ if i'm ordering a 10 or 15€ meal + 4 to 5€ of delivery on top of that already.
Granted i rarely order out because it's too expensive in the first place, so it's usually for "emergencies".

Also i hate tipping culture in general, it's a rotten concept, and i hate how its creeping its way here because of these companies and general Americanization.

I'm not about to not tip as protest ofc, because the bottom line shouldn't be the one to get fucked over it, but my problem is more with companies coming in and using that model, that finds ground thanks to tipping being such a cultural element in movies and media (from the US).

Tipping in itself as an extra is fine, i just don't think the base business model should be based on it.
All these food deliveries apps do it for example.
