Public Bathrooms With a Time Limit, Local Veterans Against the War, and Has Tipping Gone Too Far?
Jane is joined by contributor Marcus Harrison Green to discuss his latest piece in the South Seattle Emerald, speaking to local veterans about the war in Iran. Then, contributor Brett Hamil goes on a rollercoaster ride of emotions about public restrooms in Pioneer Square. And finally, all three discuss tipping culture in Seattle, what happened to the 15% option, and why some Seattleites are using a ‘tipless in Seattle’ map.
