Bullcrap… this is just note of the standard “bitch about every single decent thing” school of journalism.
Mother’s Day, as “pure hell”. It a busy packed day and lots of money and tips get made. Makes me think the writer has never even had a small taste of pure hell.
I’m sure there’s a large contingent of loud, entitled, non-tipping (wink, wink) folks in some areas.
Not that much tips. Women are notoriously cheap on tips. I did time in food service. One of the other things that makes Mother’s Day the least pleasant is there’s no gratitude. Other holidays people tend to be quite grateful for the restaurants that are open and super cool to the staff “missing the holiday”. Not on Mother’s Day. Too many folks see Mother’s Day as a chance to “thank” mom for all that hard work doting on them as kids by making others dote on mom for them.
Mother’s Day is also terrible on the biking/ walking trails. So many mother daughter pairs flood the trail not keeping the lane rules and just being in the way.
Father’s Day on the other hand, absolute best. Father’s Day is very heavily oriented to “let dad chill with a beer”, much more pleasant for everybody.
