Everything is a tech company nowadays it seems

I just found out yesterday that I'm a Tech Company, so you're not wrong! But in all seriousness, I love the fact capitalism is supposed to be sink or swim, but apparently a lot of our service industry is only a float due to low wages, and in some industries, pushing cost off to the customer in the form of tipping.

If you can't afford to pay a decent wage, then you shouldn't be in business.
