🚨 | NEW: Restaurants will be banned from keeping tips meant for staff under new legislation announced this week
Via @thetimes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They did that? Ffs
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Aye I mind when I worked in a restaurant if the till was under that would be made up by tips.
Also junior waiting staff weren’t allowed tips, they would get an extra £1 an hour. However, the extra £1 was to bring their wage up to the National minimum wage, so in effect the boss used tips to subsidise wages when he didn’t want to pay the National minimum wage.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Then there’s pooling tips with the kitchen staff. A lot of people think it’s fair but fail to account chefs are on more than minimum wage to start with.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But I wouldn't tip good service + shiiiiit food.
And I wouldn't tip shiiiit service + good food.
It's a whole package and should be shared. Honestly o wish it wasn't even a thing, just pay people a liveable wage instead of guilting customers in to subsidising shiiiiitty employment practices.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agree but of chefs are getting an extra £1-2ph as it is then as it stands that’s not really fair.
You are right that a decent wage should be paid in the first place. Think things will have to change anyway with bars and restaurants not being able to get staff. If they’re that desperate then they can pay a minimum £10ph. Obviously difficult for little one man restaurant or bar. But the big chains can more than afford it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Id also say that Chefs are a more skilled job, with a lot more pressure and responsibility.
You feck up delivering someones food as a waiter and the chef has to re-make it. The chef facks up and it could be as extreme as killing someone.
i cant say that waiters deserve the same money, but certainly everyone should be uplifted, My cousin is a chef and there is no way he makes enough to justify the stress and strain of his job.

How about instead of seperating pollution out by country as some petty point scoring exercise, We actually do it by tackling the worst polluters in the world
lets start with industry, as a handful of them are responsible for huge amounts of climate change, then perhaps we can talk about the 1.4billion worst polluters, and their excess rather than singling out any single country
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nah. Where's the xenophobia in that?
Joking. You're right.

Fek up the order as a waiter can cause serious problems.
Example here a few years ago was a guy who ordered steak tartare. Got served salmon tartare. He had a serious fish allergy and nearly died.

Agree.
In regard to domestic pollution, our local council are making it much harder to recycle now by removing nearly all glass/plastic recycling stations.
Which has led to folk concealing glass and plastic in their grey (landfill) bins. A great deal of our plastic waste is exported, (tonnes of which is burnt). And less than 50% of plastic waste is actually recovered or recycled, as the UK does not have the capacity to recycle it.

ExxonMobil a good example of someone who could be "scapegoated" for climate change and the lobbying/cover up
Dissolve them and use the money to sort the issue... Ridiculous suggestion but better than letting the world melt/burn/flood/choke

I dont really understand why we dont have a nationwide policy or role to tackle this issue.
For me its easy, and instead of having each council do their own seperate thing, enact a national policy and the necessary funding
As an example i live in wiltshire, about 400m from a Bio-digester that turns food waste in to electricity + heat.
Wiltshire doesnt collect food waste, Somerset does, and bring it here on a truck to be digested, when i queried this with wilts council, they responded that the digester was operating at capacity, so they couldnt provide the service..
SO Nationally why not tackle waste with three containers, First being recyclable, second being organic, Third being everything else.
Build a network nationally of Bio-digesters to take the organic food/garden waste, Producing: Gas, Municiple heat where possible, and an extremeley fertile slurry for farmers to spread on their fields.
With the landfill, we need to build some plasma incinerators nationally to deal with it. Plasma incinerators use an electrical arc to burn away the material in the chamber, it produces Syngases + heat which can be used to recover electricity. all metals sink to the bottom, and form a puck that can be recycled, and it forms a layer of glassy oxides that have the tensile strength of aggregates used in concrete.
we really need a zero waste strategy like this.

I brought up the worst offenders before and in top 3 are China, flowed by America and India, but you went on about America being worst in the world per capita, so when i tried to call out worst offenders, you went for America.
EU Germany is pretty poor on climate change too, as are Iran and Russia....all top ten worst polluters.
Offenders should be named, imo.
To emphasize again and follow advice given here on tackli g the worst polluters..
1....China
2...America
3....india.
Some People did not like china or india being named, but like America, they deserve to be.
Worst offenders and all that.

No problem. Loads of technology in the pipeline to take care of that.
I've read.
Identifying industry as a polluter..well that is news to me..doh.
As opposed to sport?
Kinda took it as read industry was the problem, with regard to pollution.
How about, we tackle industry and the worst offending govts and nations too, where that industry operates?
Thinking leftfield here.😂😂😂

How the fek are capitalist going to keep their need for growth fed without the proletariat of the biggest Communist country on the planet.

I think it is relevant and thank you for clearing up that Canafa is worse per capita, than the USA.
Thos is why is call out America by name too and why i believe personal responsibilty plays a part in combatting MMCC, mate.
I also believe it worthwhile to name names of nations and firms polluting most.
Canafa? We've been taken over by Antifa? Or just joined up with them?
Typo P.D. on duty today.

Actually, i was not defending the uk or flagsh@gging here.
Just identifying worst polluters.
Industry in the top ten worst polluting nations is the problem, surely.....or a good place to start.

Would rather seem them on trial but whatever means my paper straws aren't a waste of time

How about instead of seperating pollution out by country as some petty point scoring exercise, We actually do it by tackling the worst polluters in the world
lets start with industry, as a handful of them are responsible for huge amounts of climate change, then perhaps we can talk about the 1.4billion worst polluters, and their excess rather than singling out any single country
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agree.
In regard to domestic pollution, our local council are making it much harder to recycle now by removing nearly all glass/plastic recycling stations.
Which has led to folk concealing glass and plastic in their grey (landfill) bins. A great deal of our plastic waste is exported, (tonnes of which is burnt). And less than 50% of plastic waste is actually recovered or recycled, as the UK does not have the capacity to recycle it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I dont really understand why we dont have a nationwide policy or role to tackle this issue.
For me its easy, and instead of having each council do their own seperate thing, enact a national policy and the necessary funding
As an example i live in wiltshire, about 400m from a Bio-digester that turns food waste in to electricity + heat.
Wiltshire doesnt collect food waste, Somerset does, and bring it here on a truck to be digested, when i queried this with wilts council, they responded that the digester was operating at capacity, so they couldnt provide the service..
SO Nationally why not tackle waste with three containers, First being recyclable, second being organic, Third being everything else.
Build a network nationally of Bio-digesters to take the organic food/garden waste, Producing: Gas, Municiple heat where possible, and an extremeley fertile slurry for farmers to spread on their fields.
With the landfill, we need to build some plasma incinerators nationally to deal with it. Plasma incinerators use an electrical arc to burn away the material in the chamber, it produces Syngases + heat which can be used to recover electricity. all metals sink to the bottom, and form a puck that can be recycled, and it forms a layer of glassy oxides that have the tensile strength of aggregates used in concrete.
we really need a zero waste strategy like this.

ExxonMobil a good example of someone who could be "scapegoated" for climate change and the lobbying/cover up
Dissolve them and use the money to sort the issue... Ridiculous suggestion but better than letting the world melt/burn/flood/choke
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Just start assassinating the decision makers. The companies will get the message soon enough

I brought up the worst offenders before and in top 3 are China, flowed by America and India, but you went on about America being worst in the world per capita, so when i tried to call out worst offenders, you went for America.
EU Germany is pretty poor on climate change too, as are Iran and Russia....all top ten worst polluters.
Offenders should be named, imo.

To emphasize again and follow advice given here on tackli g the worst polluters..
1....China
2...America
3....india.
Some People did not like china or india being named, but like America, they deserve to be.

It's relevant but UK looks "good" on per capita becuase we've offset manufacturing to other countries amongst other initiatives
It doesn't paint the whole picture

No problem. Loads of technology in the pipeline to take care of that.

Identifying industry as a polluter..well that is news to me..doh.
As opposed to sport?
Kinda took it as read industry was the problem, with regard to pollution.
How about, we tackle industry and the worst offending govts and nations too, where that industry operates?
Thinking leftfield here.😂😂😂

I think the whole of "the West" has outsourced its manufacturing sector.
How the fek are capitalist going to keep their need for growth fed without the proletariat of the biggest Communist country on the planet.

I think it is relevant and thank you for clearing up that Canafa is worse per capita, than the USA.
Thos is why is call out America by name too and why i believe personal responsibilty plays a part in combatting MMCC, mate.
I also believe it worthwhile to name names of nations and firms polluting most.

Canafa? We've been taken over by Antifa? Or just joined up with them?

Actually, i was not defending the uk or flagsh@gging here.
Just identifying worst polluters.
Industry in the top ten worst polluting nations is the problem, surely.....or a good place to start.
