It's supposed to be a fee for convenience. However, their definition of "convenience" aren't very convenient for me.

I wonder if they do it as a way to mandate tipping the staff, and then they'd pool all the fees.

Smart tech is dumb as shit.

AI has no intelligence.

Personalized means designed to make fucking you over more efficient.

All company terminology means the opposite of what is said.
