Good I'm glad op. Restaurants should be something you go to for weddings and anniversaries, once or twice a year, not a feeding trough for fat layabouts

None. Corporations are ready to loving stab each other over the supply there is and they're fighting with national labs and poo poo over it. It's goddamn chaos and it will never go back to normal. I regularly get forced to take PTO at least twice a month at a factory that is shutting down in a year because of this poo poo, a place that was the most stable place in this entire loving city in Dec. 2019, it's god drat insane.

I agree with all of what you said but this is dumb as poo poo If you're meaning not going back into the office, fine then yeah I agree. But if you're saying "damned welfare queens aren't wanting good, hard work and would rather leech off the government dime" then suck the poo poo straight out of my rear end in a top hat. I'm so sorry that people don't want to work in lovely rear end conditions for $15k a year like they have been since 2006 or whenever the minimum wage was last increased. Also "record spending" lol bitch we're in a once in a generation pandemic we needed the spending and honestly it's not like the government will ever fail to pay its bills so

When I was waiting on getting the new xbox or a ps5 it was extremely clear they have manufacturing shortages as a result of not being able to get chips/components. Reading CONSTANT, non-stop comments from people about how Sony, Microsoft, BestBuy, Walmart, whomever, were all 'conspiring' to not sell them products (Yes companies that exist to sell things are NOT selling you a thing for no reason. Good call.) was WILD. There were literal banners and news headlines posted to some of these sites saying "WE CAN'T MAKE THIS poo poo FAST ENOUGH AND HERE'S WHY" and inches below that people would be going off that Bill Gates was keeping all the Xboxes on an island for himself to drive scarcity or some poo poo. Just incredible. And this is just one avenue affected by this market deficit. How this is affecting global markets and manufacturing sectors truly IS astounding and people DO need to educate themselves to avoid coming off looking like these idiots did.

I bought an S through the microsoft store, a friend got an S the following week. S was in stock just yesterday, check it once a day around 10am pacific time. There's also some way to sign up for emails from sony when the ps5 is available, but I'm content with my S. If you're waiting for walmart or best buy to get them, you won't find one for a long time. Go right to the manufacturer website storefront and hit refresh once or twice a day.

I paid $2.37 a gallon for gas yesterday. I spent $90 at the grocery store. My stupid veggie burger at burger king was $10.50 for that, fries, and some water. Restaurants are ridiculously expensive and always have been.

I see people blaming min wage increases for the surging costs of poo poo itt and i think that’s an unhealthy way to look at it. For one, if paying people a “living wage” makes swaths of businesses unaffordable to your average person then maybe those businesses just shouldn’t exist, otherwise you’re demanding people live in abject poverty so you can get a Big Mac on your lunch break. Priorities. But more importantly, it’s simply not true. I live in wa which has a much higher min wage in general than the fed one. For a period in college I lived on the border of Idaho and fast food prices were identical (other than taxes) despite WA forcing the companies to pay their employees over 50% more an hour. Same specials, same value menus, same everything. People were watching for effects like this in Seattle when they spiked their min wage up and all the conservatives were like “you’ll regret this, businesses will run out of money and close” but nope turned out giving service staff more money meant they had more money to spend and the effects were largely positive. Prices have been going up lately I’ll agree with that, but if you regularly shopped at grocery stores you’d notice food in general has gone up a lot this last year or two, particularly pork and beef (chicken hasn’t seemed to have changed much, maybe that’s why so many chains are advertising chicken sandwiches). I’m a deal shopper that peruses like 3 weekly fliers to decide where I’m hitting on the weekend and can tell ya even for sale prices pork and beef is like 50-100% more than a year and a half ago.

God bless taco bell, their crunchy or soft base taco is still just a buck fifty. And if you dine in, the sauce packets are unlimited so take a couple for your taco and a couple for when you back home, to spice up your rice and beans.
