I find it fundamentally strange that you’re not a dessert person. That’s just weird, and it freaks me out. ~ Jess, The New Girl
Although I favor better wages and treatment for employees, we must also consider the choice to work, job availability, and other things.
In America, food service jobs aren’t the only jobs available. Food service workers aren’t scarce either. Those are some of the factors that keep wages low for food service workers. As one of the commenters mentioned: it’s basic supply and demand. No one is forced to work those jobs.
And another commenter brought up the point that we would all be in favor of higher wages for food servers if we as a culture were not so pressured into tipping.
(By the way, I am a food service worker.)
My brother and I = Shweet. We bake stuff.
Our dessert table was a hit at our little sister’s wedding this weekend. Over 200 Coconut Rum Cupcakes and Butter Pecan Teacakes by Shweet!

The man behind the yogurt with the sour kick apparently also kicks ass. That, at least, is according to…

I like Wes Anderson’s movies. His most recent, “The Fantastic Mr. Fox”, was wonderful. I hope “Moonrise Kingdom” is just as great.
There’s something dangerous about what’s funny… - Christopher Walken
Christopher Walken: What I’ve Learned | Esquire
“There’s something dangerous about what’s funny. Jarring and disconcerting. There is a connection between funny and scary.”
T-shirt designed and available, inspired by the upcoming short movie, “Nothing Comes Easy”. More info at the movie’s Facebook page.
This is regarding the movie I referenced earlier ;)
“Maybe I’m crazy to think an artist should get paid when people are selling tickets.” - Hitler #SXSW
I’ve seen a few videos using this scene, but this one by @duncantrussell is by far the best use of it. FUCK SXSW. Hilarious.
“South By Southwest is one of the largest festivals in the world. They make a small fortune off of ticket sales, advertising, and various fees, but somehow feel OK asking comedians to perform for free AND pay for their own airfare and lodging.”

This week I started a new fun job where I got to serve/see some interesting celebs, and the short film I edited was finally screened [privately] to an awesomely pleased and praising group of 100+ people... Highlight of my week? I found a restroom at Whole Foods near the entrance I hadn't previously noticed. My bladder is overwhelmed with glee.11 days ago
