I find the numbers in the article odd. 30 000 fled to Finland based on it, and that’s actually the amount of Russian nationals in Finland now. (80 000 Russian speaking). It’s as if there were 0 before the war, which cannot be true.

We Finns do know. Our border control is very strict. We know who enter and if the same person stayed or left.

Americans are confused, frustrated by new tipping culture, study finds ( www.washingtonpost.com )

It’s gotten rather absurd. If my interaction is with a kiosk short of being handed something, it’s an insulting extra step. I’m already paying the price for my employer’s pay scale … I can’t take on someone else’s stinginess....

Noone should be tipped, but paid a living wage by their employer.

It’s not the customers responsibility to save a worker who chose to take a job that doesn’t pay a livable wage.

It’s true that the people using the services are also enablers, but I don’t hold them responsible either, when it comes to wage related questions.

The employer is responsible for paying a livable wage, but the employee is responsible for choosing to do said work.

If nobody did, the system would collapse and change in a month. No amount of never tipping/feedback can fix what’s broken, only the employees can.

The reality is that this issue only exists in the US, if we’re talking about first world countries. It’s a cultural problem in attitudes.
