The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 465 Tip
Just as the two were about to go to lunch, they received a call from Eddie Brock.

The reporter wants to invite them to lunch.

Said that there was something important to tell them.

"In my opinion, it's probably because the interview was not very good." He Nan sat in the driver's seat, looked at the phone screen, and frowned: "Guess what happened?"

"Oh. Who knows? It's becoming more and more unpredictable what these media can do nowadays." Shirley said this, frowning slightly: "But you are right, it really shouldn't be too good. He invited us Where will we meet?"

"A fast food restaurant." He Nan flipped through the navigation, looked at the store introduction, and said, "It's not too far away. It's near the Global Daily."

"It seems that he came to see us during the lunch break." Shirley narrowed her eyes slightly: "It's very close to his company, so it's convenient for him to go back after chatting. However, there is a fatal flaw in talking here... ..."

"...Well, it's easy to be seen by his colleagues, isn't it?" He Nan sighed as he said so.

"It's really easy to be seen, but since he doesn't mind, we don't have any objections." Shirley leaned hard on the back of the chair, and then stretched lazily: "Huh...although I haven't eaten yet , but already feel sleepy."

"It's okay, you're probably hungry in this situation. You'll feel more refreshed after eating." He Nan said, dumbfounded.

He Nan gets sleepy easily after lunch.

Of course, it also depends on what he eats.

If you eat foods that are low in carbohydrates, you will be less likely to get sleepy.

After all, protein is what keeps sleepy from being born.

Carbohydrates, on the other hand, do the opposite.

This is also closely related to the nap culture.

However, it is diet that determines culture.

Americans generally do not have the habit of taking a nap, because their lunch carbohydrate intake is basically very small.

It's not easy to get sleepy, so naturally you don't need to take a nap.

Besides, they drink a lot of coffee.

Asians, on the other hand, basically have the habit of taking a nap, because they will get sleepy if they don't sleep.

The reason lies in the habit of consuming large amounts of carbohydrates.

This large amount does not mean a large amount of staple food.

Rather, a bowl of rice already belongs to the category of a large amount, which is easy to cause sleepiness.

Polished rice and fine noodles are foods with a lot of carbohydrates, and they are also the most commonly eaten by Orientals and basically have every meal.This is true regardless of rice, steamed buns, cakes, noodles... or other fancy methods.

In short, if you are sleepy, you will naturally rely on a nap to relieve it.

This is why some Americans dare not eat Chinese food, Indian food, Japanese food, etc. at noon.

Because they think this is a "heavy food" and they will lose energy after eating it.

It can only be eaten casually at night or on holidays.

Anyway, I'm not afraid of being sleepy anymore.

This has nothing to do with race, it is purely a difference in eating habits.

If you let Bai Pi and Black Pi eat a meal, they will still feel sleepy.And because I don't adapt to this diet like the Orientals, I will be more sleepy.

Countries like Italy and France that are also accustomed to eating a lot of carbohydrates (pasta and bread) often use pasta with some sauce or bread with something to solve every meal, which leads to their nap culture.It's just that because I drink a lot of coffee, I can basically suppress my sleepiness.

But Dongfang doesn't like drinking coffee that much.

Although there is tea, the refreshing effect of tea is far worse than that of coffee. It is mainly good for other health effects.

In addition, the proportion of young people who love to drink tea is getting lower and lower.

More people are addicted to milk tea (non-Mongolian and Tibetan traditional milk tea) and other derivatives that have little to do with tea.

In short, this specific situation still needs to be analyzed in detail.

Indeed, even if someone consumes a lot of carbohydrates in one meal, they will not be sleepy at all afterwards.

This is because people's constitutions are different and cannot be generalized.

Shirley's energy is particularly good, and she doesn't get sleepy easily.

But she likes to lie down and rest whenever she is free.

How useful this habit is for replenishing energy is debatable.

He Nan felt that because of her habit, it cannot be concluded that she is not easy to sleep because of the nap.

After all, Shirley can wake up refreshed in the morning without taking a nap even if she sleeps only a short amount of time at night.

And He Nan will be trapped like a dog.

"Okay... it's here."

He Nan drove the car to the restaurant that Eddie Brock had told them about.

As a result, when he got to the side, he realized that he had been to this store before.

Had a shrimp salad and cheese sausage here last time.

It feels bad.

For example, the prawns in the salad were small and dry, not sure how long they had been pre-cooked.After a while, you can make dried prawns.

Oh, it cannot be called dried prawns.

Shrimp jerky was about the same.

That's why I'm ashamed to call it a fresh shrimp salad. The dish is not very good, but the skin is really thick.

The cheese sausage was also problematic.

Ah, it should be baked now, but it turned out to be hot in the microwave, obviously it was baked in advance, I don’t know how long.

The sausages that have been heated in the microwave, go down in one bite, some meat and cheese are hot, and some are cold.Any fool can taste it, this is the embodiment of typical microwave food.

It's not that it's unacceptable for them to prepare food ahead of peak hours.

Instead, I simply feel that the experience of doing this is really disgusting.

He really didn't want to tip when he left.

But I have to give it.

American tipping culture is extremely deformed.

It is said that tipping is voluntary, but in fact, if you don't give it, people will think that you are unqualified and uneducated, and that you are prostitution for their services.

…Even if they have no service at all, and even if they have served, it is better not to serve.

You just have to give.

If you don't give it to you, you are a villain.

The tipping culture in the United States is a logic of moral kidnapping.

Bosses exploit the waiters and make their basic wages extremely low, often even lower than the state's legal basic wages.

Then, almost all income is obtained from tips.This fee basically accounts for more than 70.00% of their income.

In some shops, part of the tip is given to the shop, and they cannot take all of it.

As for how much to tip?
Generally, the tip for lunch should be 15.00% to 18.00% of the total price, and the tip for dinner should be higher, accounting for [-]% to [-]%.Once the number of diners exceeds five people, the tip must be paid more than [-]%, otherwise it is uneducated.

This is a very unreasonable cultural unspoken rule. The more you eat, the more you will be given, and there is an approximate ratio.

Many native Americans are complaining, and feel that they really don't understand how the tip is given as a percentage like tax.

Did you give me a hundred times the difference between ordering a hundred dollar food and a one dollar one?
