Also from the title it sounds like maybe they are defining "most popular" as "most total dollars spent on this model," or something? Though I can't imagine that even that would make the Mercedes C-class, a car I see like one of a day in SF, the most popular car in RI. What a load of crap

I think that you guys are forgetting that using smart vibrators in the car during commuting is not specifically illegal. That 5pm is during commuting, not after.

Delaware has a small local chain of burrito shops called El Diablo. They're just Chipotle, that's all they are. A local Chipotle.

Yeah, that's a normal way of presenting holiday opening hours? The question is why they're closed on the biggest drinking night of the year. New years day between 2 and 8 in the morning should be the busiest hour in fast food

Because the public, taken as a whole, is approximately as intelligent as a day-old kitten and would be utterly baffled by that consolidation. In fact the current situation, where gray stripes indicate closure but there is no explicit indication of this, is also dramatically insufficient for public consumption. I wouldn't be surprised if Market Street had to schedule an extra person every day this month just to answer the phones about it.

I know, for a fact, that the gray stripes wouldn't be enough for every single member of the general public.

Probably not all that visible once printed and taped to the inside of a glass door either, so it'd just look like they were left blank and not filled in.

Are any stores open on december 27th-30th? Is it missing because it's implied that it's normal hours? Or is it missing because it's implied that they're closed? It's probably the former, but how confident are you that Market Street specifically is actually open those days and not closed for most of the holiday season? It would also help to not present something that isn't a calendar (like with days in columns, weeks in rows) in a form where it looks just like a calendar at first glance. Not including the date on most of those days is also going to lead to confusion ("eve" vs "day"), as does having gaps between the days. Personally what bothers me the most is when you take up a lot of space to provide very little information like you were trying to fill up the space, but I'm still left with questions at the end of it.

Just to nail the lid home on how customers don't read things, last week we got over 50 emails for reservations. The form to submit the query requests their phone number. 8 had the phone number in the first email. About 20 gave it after the second email. Over half never gave us their phone number and then showed up wondering why they didn't have reservations. I have seen email chains that would blow your mind, including a response to us asking for their phone number, "my phone number is:" That is a direct quote.

EasilyConfused posted:Does your form not require the phone number field filled in? Boss's kid hasn't figured out how to make it a requirement. Regardless, I have personally spoken to more than one person who has responded to the question of "Didn't you get an email requesting your phone number and name?" with "Yea, but I didn't answer."

i would think the 30 seconds it takes to google what the html "required" attribute does would be worth the savings cost of having to answer a ton of messages and deal with a small but steady stream of irate customers but i'm not a paragon of economic thought like a restaurant owner so what do i know

I have that feeling when I try to look up graphics cards. I can't remember how many times they've rebooted the numbers but surely a geforce 9800 should still be the best. There must be a tomshardware ranking where it's just model number in numerical order.

Nvidia has gone around twice I think. First there was the 9800, then the 980, and eventually there will be a 9080. I guess after that it's gonna be 9008

I wish they'd just switch to something like [year].[number of releases that year to date +1]. It's not like the stupid numbers have any marketing value.
