5 months agoOnly encountered it once maybe two years ago. Was in a part of town I am not often around anymore and dropped in a coffee shop I used to frequent. The staff couldn’t have been much older than 20, all with bare midriffs that I have never seen in food service before (this is kind of a grungy art district spot, but still). Ordered my coffee and asked about their food which used to have some gluten free options, and got a blank stare for maybe 10 seconds.
That’s it. Just once. Not a general stereotype but I’m not exactly well traveled so maybe more regional?
I hate driving and like the idea of driverless cars, but I’d far more like to have better mass transit and more areas that are enjoyable to walk around in. More space for humans and nature, less for roads and parking.
