I say this as a millennial who drinks and actually did whisky tasting as my main hobby with reviews for 12 years; I get it. I worked with and in the alcohol industry. They have no clue. It's all ego and razor thin margins and old ways of running a business. They are heavily resistant to change of any sort. They will not be able to handle this at all.

Add to that they are owned by rich people as vanity projects who want their ROI ASAP at levels that healthier margin/growth industries could barely achieve and we will start seeing them disappear. Which is too bad, because it's centuries of tradition in some cases, and I find it tasty.

Yes. Source: Me. But I grew up in Montreal, so I'm biased.

Nailed it. She was notorious for that.

At one time, poor people would sell pencils on the street.

Had a VP who was forced to do this (but with commercial flights) 15ish years ago. It was hell and she quit after 4 months. Management was surprised due to their inability to understand people or reality.

I mean, it's gotta be Final Fantasy I-VI Bundle (Pixel Remasters, because I've only played through VI and IV once every 5 years and I should get those numbers up.

They can want it. I don't think it's a bad idea.

American automakers though? They'll either break everyone working on this initiative or bribe the IOC enough to break old bribe records.

Heck, Elon Musk is going to be immensely annoying about this very thing and will be annoying enough.

Doesn't mean they shouldn't try, but they need to accept that sheer tidal wave of pushback coming their way.

I'm not saying there could be a grey market on Meta, but I'm also not not dismissing it's existence.

You may have meant to write this under the cast iron post vs. The taxes under the Harris-Trump Boomer article.

Yikes, thanks for the info. I think I misspoke, I just find the taxing to be nit picky as a process, and my sympathy that your country doesn't provide Healthcare.

Wait, sorry, I'm an accountant in another country; you guys don't tax employee benefits? Lucky.

Based upon the down votes, I am adding an edit: Lucky because it can get nit picky for an accountant, not lucky because your government doesn't care for you. But I mis spoke and it was off topic, so I accept my comment wasn't appreciated.

So think of that group; they are all talented, they have fun, and are all smiles. Not them. Those are normal musically inclined people (probably, I don't know them, I'm using them as an example).

Now take one of them, make them demand everyone they got to karaoke with sing, regardless of ability or comfort, pick songs for people who don't get up, call people out via microphone onto stage, and then wonder why they don't have friends. That's hardcore karaoke people.

I went from going out to karaoke to buy rounds and cheer on friends to meeting three of these over enthusiastic malcontents and never wanting to go again.

I was once hit on by two 60+ men (i was in my 20s) who were very pushy at a karaoke bar and these karaoke people are still my worst memories of being at karaoke.
