Tip jars are never tasteful, putting a tip jar out is equivalent to panhandling, IMO. A business is a place for business transactions, not begging.

Once the money is in my savings account I do choose to reallocate the extra (beyond emergency fund) to long term investments.
I can't understand this! First thing I do when I open up an editor is show whitespace characters. They are part of the source code this should be always be displayed! It would feel wrong to code without showing whitespace.
If you can see your whitespace you can tell right away that it's wrong.
That's really something you should know and understand because you want to make sure you are getting paid correctly and catch any payroll errors. They are not uncommon, I've caught a couple myself, including an $1,800 mistake.
If you're paid biweekly (say, every other Friday) you have 26 pay periods. If you are paid semi monthly (say the first and the fifteenth) then you'll have 24 pay periods.

This is a random guy. His named ERNEST BELL JR and his birthdate is 10/05/1959.
Yes, this is explicitly protected by law.
>I could probably discover such information
No you can't get this information, and certainly not legally.
>Your address is usually public
Exactly but I never "gave my consent to release my address," it just is.
>Birthday has never been publicly available until this voter data leak.
Open up a newspaper or open up yourlocalpaper.com There's a whole birth announcements section!
How do you think the RNC got this information in the first place? Public records. The RNC is NOT the government.
How do you think the RNC got birthdays for 200 million Americans in the first place? Public records. 200 million Americans are NOT affiliated with the RNC.
I've never "consented" to "releasing" my address publicly, but real estate records are public information thus the real estate I own is easily queried from my town's website and the real estate transaction was published in all the local newspapers. You can even look up my property tax bills from the towns website and my payment history of said taxes. If you're feeling generous you can also pay my property taxes online too.
>The mere thought of compiling such information here would lead to some hefty jail time these days.
No, not in the United States it wouldn't. Not only is it not illegal, it's standard practice by marking companies, data brokers, and others.
Big US companies, and all US companies, big and small, have always choosen, and very carefully, what sorts of content they want to distribute, what sorts of image they want to portray, what sorts of causes they want to publicly support, and what their public imagine will be. You were never able to find atheist content in a Christian bookstore, you could only buy the censored version of CDs from Walmart, you couldn't find pornography at K-Mart, The Disney Channel never broadcasted any politically incorrect material, and you couldn't buy t-shirts with "inflammatory religious or supremacist content" in Old Navy. Even the original Geocities had strong content restrictions.
Are you loudly complaining Old Navy doesn't sell a "Hitler was right" shirt? Are you complaining about the "censorship" going on at the Museum of Fine Arts since they don't have a white supremacist exhibit?
In fact, pornography is legal and YouTube does not allow pornography. Why aren't you already up in arms about that "censorship."
Do you never leave your house? You have never eaten off a plate you don't own? Never been to a restaurant? You've never slept in a hotel or at a friend's house?
(I went rouge and bought both dishes and blankets from Goodwill so don't come over to my house.)
However NYC as a whole has high sales and income taxes though. Including City income tax.
Brooklyn is where you live when you move to The City without a lot of money - like for grad school.
Rent is (probably) higher in Park Slope or Williamsburg though which are more "desirable" areas of Brooklyn.
I'm sure natives can chime in.
As far as hand washing goes. Wash your hands at the start. Avoid cross contamination by washing your hands immediately after handling raw meat. You can wipe your hands on a (clean) apron or towel if you want to go from chopping veggies to handling raw chicken but not the other way around.
Always wash all fresh fruits and vegetables even ones you don't eat the outside of (oranges, grapefruits)
When I handle raw meat I always wear gloves and wash my hands after j take the gloves off. The gloves remind me that I'm "unsafe" when I am wearing them.
The health department required us to have separate cutting boards for meat and veggies when I worked in a kitchen. I think that's a good idea for home as well.
