A few years ago, I would have said the owner was just being cheap. But then my own bank statement showed how much those swipe fees add up. Credit card companies take around 2 to 3 percent of every sale, and on small items like coffee that cuts deep into the profit. The owner of my local diner explained that he pays about 50 cents on every ten dollar meal. So now I get why they would pass that cost along. It feels annoying but the math is actually pretty simple once you look at it.

Right? And honestly it's not like the fries are gonna suffer from one extra minute in the heat. Standing there like a guard dog over a bag of frozen potatoes is wild. People act like the oven timer is a suggestion and they have to supervise the whole process. Just throw them in, set a timer, and walk away like a normal person.

@shane_park92 did you ever figure out why the ways wore uneven like that?

Nah, judges want details not vague stuff.

Did you ever hit that point where you had a whole month planned out and then just gave up on it entirely?
