The devastating realization came in H&M. Specifically, in a pair of size 36 dress pants. I’d never bought pants at H&M before, and suddenly asked myself: how could a 36-inch waist suddenly be so damn tight?

I’ve never been slim — I played offensive line in high school — but I’m no cow either. (I’m happily a “Russell Crowe” body type.) So I immediately went across the street, bought a tailor’s measuring tape, and trudged from shop to shop, trying on various brands’ casual dress pants. It took just two hours to tear my self-esteem to smithereens and raise some serious questions about what I later learned is called “vanity sizing.”

Your pants have been deceiving you for years. And the lies are compounding:

The thing that article didn't say about waitress's is a lot of them in the US make only $5.85 a hr and only make money off tips. That's a bigger joke then anything.

Actually 3.45 pays for the entire burger, not just the patty, so the actual cost of the burger is a lot lower. plus, mcdonalds workers don't deserve high pay because it's a low skilled job. all the equipment that surrounds them substitutes for skill. now try making a burger in a real kitchen at cardero's or something
