Your country gdp is too high. Live somewhere poorer, then you can have cheaper meal.

What's $1.50 compared to your hourly wage?

[-] hahattpro@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

About 8$/hour.

Haha pathetic, here in Zimbabwe I get to enjoy a 150 Trillion Zimbabwean dollar meal for work.

At least around here, if you go to some of the places frequented by office workers downtown the prices are extremely low and the quality quite high. I imagine they do very well on tips.

My brother used to wait at an Applebees type joint, (well except there was actual food and not just appetizers,)

Apparently the worst tippers were the Sunday-after-church crowd followed closely by lunch-special (soup and salad,) rush.

The problem with the soup and salad was that it was free refills so lots of work and the bill stayed low for the percentage tippers.

The question is what is your daily (or hourly) wage compared to the person eating that?
