The service fee I questioned was in Jamaica and is a 10% "service fee", yet then they want gratuity for the servers.
It just reminds me that sometimes having the unpopular opinion even when you're right can have repercussions.
Were you banned because you expressed an unpopular opinion or was it because you persisted in personalising the exchanges by calling everyone who disagreed wrong?
