Also, their wages are highest in part to offset the fact that their insurance costs are highest, because it's incredibly easy to kill someone by loving up anesthesia.

My mom is a school nurse and said they had an incident where a toilet broke in the middle school. They took it apart and found a pot vape pen. Not great!

This is almost as bad as when someone didn't put out their cigarette and caught the middle school bathroom trash can on fire!

Can't imagine being a teacher at a public school right now when a big percentage of the parents think you have been installed there by George Soros or whoever specifically to groom their child.

/r/teachers has a story a day about a teacher or a substitute being assaulted or a kid bringing a straight up gun to school and administration doing zero about it, if anything they blame the teacher for getting in the way of the fist/thrown chair.

I'm so glad my mom was able to retire five years ago. She said it was really bad in her last few years and doesn't know how young teachers are putting up with it.

Medical field in general often feels like the tedious and difficult tasks are performed by the lowbies, only for the top dog to come in, poke around for 5mins and go "mm hmm looks good". Same with dentists, outside of actual extensive repairs they just come in after the hygenist is done, poke your teeth a bit with a spiky tool then move on.

yeah it 5 mins of work with decades of study/experience backing it up, which it why is so dangerous when people think oh hey that looks easy maybe i should do X myself and save a few bucks…

Soon this will be reaching parity with the US incarcerated population. It makes me wonder if at some point being imprisoned looks like an attractive alternative to being destitute on the streets for some folks. While that's still an option and not mandatory I mean.

$3 for a single McDonald’s hash brown? Customers are fed up and pushing back

New York
CNN


At McDonald’s, which has repeatedly boasted about its ability to raise menu prices without denting sales, executives are finally acknowledging that customers need a break.

----

That’s putting pressure on lower-income consumers, a vital base for the chain.

“We actually saw that cohort” — customers making $45,000 or less — “decrease in the most recent quarter,” he added.

Kempczinski didn’t offer details on the timing or size of any price cuts. But his focus on affordability marked a shift from just a few months ago, when he boasted that US menu prices, which went up as much as 10% in 2023 alone, weren’t deterring sales.

“Even though we’re pushing through pricing, the consumer is tolerating it well,” he said in October analyst call.

In a statement to CNN, McDonald’s declined to comment on specific price cuts but reiterated its commitment to providing affordable options to consumers.


----


Still, up until recently, McDonald’s found most customers were still willing to pay. And even now, wealthier customers appear undeterred, Kempczinski said Monday.


The premium consumer remains undettered


I guess people are finally realizing what a joke MCD is now. They have a 1,2,3 "dollar" menu that has nothing under a dollar. I haven't been into one in a year and I went to get a small coffee and got to browse the menu on the kiosk. They playing everybody so bad lmao.

The app deals also suck, don't tell me about no app deals.

This was changed, so if you live in a place with state/local taxes to have like a barely functional civil system, you got hosed by tax changes basically.
