Date: November 21st, 2015 5:00 PM Author: ocher mad cow disease ratface The sleaziest practice - one I used to run into regularly but it's far less common now - is the "oh our credit card machine is broken" scam. Taxis, now thankfully defunct outside of NYC thanks to uber, used to be the worst offenders.
I've also run into shady practices at some bars / night spots where the staff is clearly aiming to steal from drunk people. Blatant overcharges, double swiping, non-itemizing receipts so they can stick in fake charges, etc.
One thing that isn't "sleazy" as much as just annoying is the hiding of resort and other fees from hotel prices (to some extent similar things happen with airlines). I don't consider it sleazy since everyone knows about it, but really not including a mandatory fee in a price should implicate some sort of false advertising or false representation issues. |
|
Date: November 21st, 2015 5:10 PM Author: Lavender point Yeah the resort fee is a good one. Congress should just step in and ban that shit. If it's a mandatory fee, it must be included in the price. They did that recently with airline tickets. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3050749&forum_id=2#29226402) |

What other options do companies have? I carry over five days (the max allowed by my job) and every year I'm basically forced to take a week off at the end of the year to use the rest up. If I didn't have to use them I'd probably save at least 15 days every year. After four years that's like 3 months worth of business days. |

Per the DLSE:
Q.
My employer's vacation policy provides that if I do not use all of my annual vacation entitlement by the end of the year, that I lose the unused balance. Is this legal?
A.
No, such a provision is not legal. In California, vacation pay is another form of wages which vests as it is earned (in this context, "vests" means you are invested or endowed with rights in the wages). Accordingly, a policy that provides for the forfeiture of vacation pay that is not used by a specified date ("use it or lose it") is an illegal policy under California law and will not be recognized by the Labor Commissioner. |

Printer and HDMI cables - Big box stores take a loss on the TVs and printers to sell you $50 cables.
"Accessory kits" stores sell with cell phones with some crappy pleather case and extra charger cable - Boomers LOVE these. Probably keeping all those mall stores alive.
"High end" prole clothing like Banana Republic - shit is made in the same factory as Old Navy for $3 and built to the same shit standards. Why waste the cash? Either go all out for legit stuff or save your money.
Expensive Vodka. "Ooh it tastes like nothing! So smooth!" One of the biggest prole scams out there.
"High-end" dog daycare - They make it look like Fido will be romping around happy with 2 best friends, but he goes into the kennels in the back room 5 minutes after you leave. |

This is bs on 2 different levels:
1. Dogs don't need vaccines anything like that often.
2. Even if they did, they let you board if you buy the shots on admission, even though it takes several days at least for the dog to develop antibodies in reaction to the shot. |

"Water bills" -the vast majority of the cost is keeping cubic feet and pressure to hold up your system and sewer. Your monthly water usage barely moves the dial.

Date: November 22nd, 2015 3:09 PM Author: Cyan Patrolman Good pro photographers are very skilled. It's more difficult and more time-consuming than you think to make good images, especially in a one-chance situation like a wedding.
That said, there are plenty of shitty "pro" photographers. |

That said, the prices charged by these people for weddings are highway robbery. |

Date: November 22nd, 2015 11:07 PM Author: Free-loading institution mood Photography is the easiest shit in the world. Modern cameras do all the work, and weddings take place either in a well-lit interior or outside in the day time. Everyone is dressed well and happy. It doesn't take a fucking genius. I know multiple people with no real clue and no formal photography training who declared themselves to be wedding photographers and are doing fine. Also, probably 1000 other pictures will be taken by guests, so it's not like you won't be able to find a good picture of your wedding if you hire some unemployed artsy girl for $200 and she fucks it up.

Date: November 22nd, 2015 5:26 PM Author: Sapphire Appetizing Stage I found this and thought it might help paint the picture (no Pun intended) Picasso is sketching at a park. A woman walks by, recognizes him, and begs for her portrait. Somehow, he agrees. A few minutes later, he hands her the sketch. She is elated, excited about how wonderfully it captures the very essence of her character, what beautiful work it is, and asks how much she owes him. “5000 francs, madam,” says Picasso. The woman is incredulous, outraged, and asks how that’s even possible given it only took him 5 minutes. Picasso looks up and, without missing a beat, says: “No, madam, it took me my whole life.” |

Date: November 22nd, 2015 6:11 PM Author: Cobalt hell goyim thank you baby jesus. I was SOOOOO outraged all day yesterday. i made sure to scream from the rooftops how wrong that article was and made every attempt to make it known to the company, the vendors, and the world.
what many couples don’t understand is that they do NOT hold all the cards. They are NOT interviewing US, or doing US a favor by giving us work. In fact, i say this often, we have just as much control, if not more, to say NO to a couple than they have. If they are not a good fit for us, we have the power to decline working with them.
i can appreciate couples working with budgets. but this is why my pricing is clear. i do not need to spend time on couples who clearly have no intention of paying X amount and intend to haggle. they need to move on to other vendors, NOT negotiate. You wouldn’t tell Picasso what HIS work is worth. You wouldn’t negotiate with the COUPLE to only work half of their ceremony, eat during their first dance, and only edit a portion of the images. |
