I went to a hospital recently to visit a friend and needed to buy lunch while I was there. I purchased a premade chicken Caesar salad in a package for $7.50.
I walk back to where I’m staying and realize the salad has everything except the dressing. It’s literally lettuce, chicken, croutons, and a bit of cheese.
I say fuck this because it’s hardly even a Caesar salad at this point, and I go back to buy something else. That’s when I realize, they do have dressing, but it’s sold separately and it’s a fucking $1.00.
A big deal? No. Infuriating? YES.
FFFFFUUUUUUCK! This is exactly what I mean about hidden fees and everyone trying to scam everyone everywhere you turn!
It doesn’t have to be about big deals. In fact, getting angry about small things is good because sometimes even small things need to change and if corporate greed isn’t reigned in, we are going to hit Great Depression levels of food price inflation within the next decade.
