Min Wage increase kills a SF small business

If you aren't a small business owner who has had to scrape together to make payroll and payroll taxes, then you need to shut the fuck up because you have no goddamn idea what you are talking about.

How do you create a smoothy?

Get a good blender to begin with. Spend a few hundred and get something that will last forever. That being said, I own a dessert shop and just personally worked on recipes last night. Smoothie base: 8 ounces apple or orange juice 2 ounces plain yogurt Most of the recipes then add about 2 cups...

Non Partisan did you vote thread!

No, I don't beleive voting is effective and only gives the fools who do vote an illusion that they had a say in things (or gives them the ability to say "well, I didn't vote for him!") Voting is a right, just like the right to bear arms. Why do people get so upset when someone like me doesn't...

Anyone know anything about owning a pizzaria?

The one where OP says even if he only does $4K in sales pwer week he thinks $2K of that should be profit. Banks love giving business loans to people who have the amazing power of pulling numbers out of their asses.

Anyone know anything about owning a pizzaria?

Lots of good stuff in there. A few things off the top of my head from my experience: 1) Bottled drinks need to be offered in limited quantity. Fountain drinks have a cost of about $.30 (less if dine in with a washsable cup) vs a bottled drink which runs me about $1.70 wholesale 2) When I...

Anyone know anything about owning a pizzaria?

I purchased a local pizzeria that is established and has a strong following. It was listed on CL but also through a broker. Pizza can have good margins, depending on if you want to sell expensive brick oven pizzas or churn out cheap Hot Stuff shit. I paid somewhere around $250K for a hole...

Tim Cook is proud to be gay.

Speaking as an average, middle-class raised white straight guy from the USA: minorities, perceived or not (gay, handicapped, black, native, whatever), care a whole lot more about their minority than most of the rest of us do. I see things like this doing damage. People like me want to...

Tim Cook is proud to be gay.

When will being gay quit being a thing? Who the fuck cares anymore? It is like coming out against segregation: yeah, about 99.9% of us are on board with it and don't give a flying fuck. To be sure there are still things that need to change, such as wide acceptance of gay marriage, but I know...

When does one cross the line when it comes to killing animals?

I am all for animal killing, but it to be as quick as possible. Killing a rat is good, even with poison. Trapping it and boiling it is bad. Catching a fish is good. If you pull it out of the water then skin it alive you are a sick bastard. Even with bugs, it is a dick move to torture them. Do...

Meet The 20-Somethings Who Want To Be Sterilized

Nobody said they were prohibited from doing it. It isn't illegal. The doctor also has free will and is declining to do it. What I find funny is that you are up in arms about this woman who should get what she wants, and you are willing to force a doctor to do something he doesn't want to do to...

Changing careers from aviation to IT. Looking for advice

It is easy to not hire someone because of a bias. Old guy walk in for an interview, he is qualified but you don't like how old he is. You simply don't hire him but give no reason for it, or make something up like "I don't think he has the right attitude for our organization."

Learn how to manage projects and multitask. Above all work on improving people skills and customer service. It is easy to find someone to fix a computer; it is a lot harder to find someone who is likeable and doesn't treat the customer like an idiot while fixing their issues.

What the hell happened to good ol' ice cream flavours?

Fuck ice cream. Gelato is where it's at. Not the store bought gelato either - find a place locally that makes it fresh and you will never go back to ice cream. Yes, ice cream and gelato are very similar, but gelato has less air and fat than ice cream and it is served at just under freezing (ice...

Anyone Have Solar Panels?

I am in Alaska and thought the same thing, but then they showed me the numbers for it. One thing I did not know is that heat reduces efficiency in the panels. So, we might not get as much sun as AZ, but it is cooler so the panels are more efficient. Yes, there are Nov - Feb is low on production...
