I'd like to see the law changed so that no worker can be paid below minimum wage — whether they receive tips or not. Read more

I fail to see how tips would motivate anyone when tipping is expected. Only in a system where the tip is optional would it become motivational. Besides, all of the businesses that do not have workers who receive tips have figured out a way to motivate employees and/or get rid of under-performing ones. Read more

"Outlaw" may be too strong of a word. I'd prefer if tipping were optional. Let's go back to calling it a gratuity (something given out of gratitude for above average service). We just need to do 2 things: Read more

I'd love to be proven wrong, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you're the exception — not the rule. Read more

Agreed. Hive Five's are like high school elections — the popular guy always wins. I'd be surprised if most people casting votes have even tried more than one cloud storage service. Read more

Every once in a while you'll come across a site that will not allow the plus sign (+) in an email address. In that rare circumstance, it's good to have an alternative. Read more

I have my own domain and use Gmail with it. Is there a way to send out bounces that look more official? Read more

That goes away once you open that tab. If you decide not to read it right then, it becomes a case of "out of sight, out of mind". This is good if you're a rabid inbox zero person, but not so good if you have a more lax approach to acting on your email (I'm in the latter camp). It may not be so bad if the unread count… Read more

I created a similar ledger for my kids, but styled more after a check register. I give them an allowance that goes up each year on their birthday and I don't buy them any toys or other non-essentials except for birthdays & Christmas. I think it helps them appreciate the things they have more than if they were just… Read more

I have this script set to autorun when Windows starts. It empties the recycle bin & my temp folder (not the Windows temp folder). I have turned off the message that asks for confirmation when I delete something — if I hit delete by accident, I can recover the file from the recycle bin before the next time I shut down… Read more

Yeah, this tip is pretty useless if your keyboard doesn't have an actual number pad. Read more

I have my Num Lock remapped to {Tab} outside of Calculator so when I'm filling out forms with lots of numbers, I just need to use the one hand. I have the combo Break + Num Lock for toggling Num Lock (which I almost never use). I didn't include an alternate way to toggle Num Lock for this block of code because I… Read more

My keyboard and mouse are together in one device — the Focus FK-7200. The track ball and mouse buttons are integrated right below the space bar so I don't have to reach to the side for a standard mouse. Before I started using this keyboard, my mouse wrist hurt all the time. After a few months of using this, I haven't…
