Los clientes ahora enfrentan una cultura de las propinas radicalmente diferente a la de hace unos años

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 08:55:17 GMT

Nueva York (CNN) — Cada vez son más los establecimientos que ofrecen a los clientes la opción de dejar propina, desde cafeterías hasta heladerías.Alrededor del 48 % de los restaurantes de servicio rápido como Starbucks, Panera y McDonald’s ofrecen ahora a los clientes la opción de dejar propina, según datos publicados este mes por Toast, una empresa de software de gestión de restaurantes. Esta cifra es superior al 38% de 2020.Pero los estadounidenses dejan menos propina.El porcentaje de propinas en los restaurantes de servicio rápido el trimestre pasado fue del 15,9%, frente al 16,4% del año pasado.Según los expertos, la gente deja menos propina debido, en parte, a la inflación. También está abrumada por el número de lugares que le dan la opción de dejar propina con una tarjeta en un iPad, lo que lleva a las personas a ser menos generosas.“Fuera de control”: ya nadie sabe cuánto dejar de propinaClientes y trabajadores se enfrentan hoy a una cultura de la prop...

Survey: Home security cameras are cheap, but might be addictive

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 08:55:17 GMT

Installing a home video camera security surveillance system has never been easier. Some of the best don’t even require hard-wiring. And many good systems don’t cost much.“The surveillance systems you can buy are not only more affordable, they often have much better quality that what you would have found even a decade ago. They can record more video and they are smaller,” said Jacob Channel at LendingTree.Its recent survey of homeowners found that 51% of U.S. homeowners are now utilizing some form of surveillance technology in or around their homes. That jumped to 72% among millennial homeowners with children.Older surveillance systems often took professional installation and intrusive wiring. Many new systems don’t. But that can make security cameras their own security risk.“They can be susceptible to hackers. So do keep that in mind if you do get these types of cameras be sure that they’re not only on a password protected WiFi network, but ...

Russian hackers strike French National Assembly website

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 08:55:17 GMT

PARIS — France’s National Assembly website was brought down Monday in a cyberattack claimed by pro-Russian hackers. “We decided to repeat our recent trip to France, where protests against [French President Emmanuel] Macron, who decided not to give a damn about the French and continues to ‘serve’ Ukrainian neo-Nazis, still do not subside,” hacker group NoName057(16) wrote on its Telegram channel. The pro-Kremlin group is behind a string of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks in recent months, including on Polish airport and e-government websites after Warsaw delivered Leopard tanks to Ukraine, but also against targets in Denmark, the Czech Republic and Lithuania. National Assembly officials told franceinfo they couldn’t confirm yet that the cyberattack came from Russian hackers but was working on “identification.” The hacker group claimed they targeted the French institution because of Macron’s highly unpopular pension re...

Yankees’ Jimmy Cordero Eager to Contribute Ahead of Big League Comeback

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 08:55:17 GMT

TAMPA – Jimmy Cordero hasn’t thrown a major league pitch since Oct. 1, 2020, when the former White Sox reliever tossed a scoreless inning in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.Tommy John surgery derailed the righty’s career the following March and left him unable to pitch in 2021. But the Yankees threw Cordero a lifeline, signing him to a minor league deal that December. Now he and the team may be on the verge of reaping rewards made possible by that flyer.The hard-throwing Cordero cracked the Yankees’ Opening Day roster Sunday after he spent last season entirely at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The 31-year-old shined for the RailRiders, recording a 2.09 ERA over 38.2 innings while striking out 31.8 percent of the hitters he faced.That campaign helped Cordero force his way onto the Yankees’ 40-man roster over the offseason, which in turn helped him land a gig in the Bombers’ bullpen on the heels of a solid spring.Cordero has a 4.00 ERA with nin...
