How do you know if it's Honestone or someone else?
[QUOTE=Camhole;6099828]Where there threats in those PMs? I only ask because I didn't read that far into them. Once I realize a message or post is from a Rex alt I just put it on the ignore list or delete it without reading it fully. Dude seriously needs a hobby, and I mean a real hobby. Maybe he could try custom painting hot wheel cars, I've recently heard that there's money in that.[/QUOTE]If it's an alt, how do you know that it's Honestones or somebody else?
Have you heard about the amazing world of ForEx trading?
[QUOTE=MgtowSea;6101462]I thought it was a massive scam she was pulling. Before she....[/QUOTE]A couple years ago, it seemed to me all the Asia region girls would eventually fall into 'I can't believe how well I've done with forex trading. Have you tried it? Wow they were patient.
If you want to play along to see what's up, go for it. Don't 'pay her way' from New York to see you. Just stick to "yes, but I couldn't make any promises to anyone I haven't spent time with 'in person' ". If an asian girl actually showed up on your doorstep. I think you would be part of a vanishingly small club. .
Short story longer.
Forex lets you leverage money through a middle broker to try to profit on exchange rate fluctuation. For whatever reason that industry also tends to allow multiplicative 'bets' 2 x to 100 x. Probably because currency exchange differences tend to be 'stable'. And then they started trading crypto.
Anyways. The 'scam' is that unlike regular stock trade companies, forex trade providers have a server that controls exchanging the assets they hold to a middle broker (see metatrader). MT is legit. Many of the brokers are legit. These scam ones. Not so much. They will try to get you to slap a 50 x multiplier on your. 2 bitcoin 'safe easy money trade'.
Some of that terminology may be off. My interest waned once I finally figured out 'how it worked'.
Tipping when dining service is bad
Before senior prom, I remember one teacher talking to us about prom dinner, and he brought up tipping. He said something like, if a waiter is so rude to you, still tip them, I think he said 10%. I tend to tip well, knowing that they're doing a tough and thankless job. If they do a good job, and their attitude is great, that's represented in the tip.
What about when service is bad? I don't mean like Ryan Leaf, running up a $150 bar tab, and leaving a $3 tip, just to be a jerk. I went to have some food, and there was one dish that I ordered, and when the table next to me ordered it later, I heard that it was sold out. No problem, I understand. My waitress didn't tell me it was sold out. Yet, she put it on my tab! I also ordered something else at the end, and she gave me a different version than I asked for. It just showed inattentiveness, I think. I was by myself, not in a big party.
I usually tip them well. I know that the cooks, who are super cool, get part of the tips, as do the host and hostess, which is why I didn't want to punish them. For a $30 tab, I was so close to leaving no tip, or a $2 tip. I left $5, but I've left $10 for comparable bill amounts, at the same restaurant.
Also, when I go there next time, I do know the night manager well. How can I politely tell him that I don't wish to be served by that particular waitress?
If service is bad, with multiple mistakes, what is a fair amount to tip?
