#596 - Fight at Vivocity Lift Goes Viral & Astons Raises Prices by 19%?

At Yah Lah BUT, we’re big on looking at issues from multiple angles, and we’ve got a good example this episode! A TikTok video showing a fight at a lift lobby in Vivocity went viral this weekend. Who started it? Who was helping and who wasn’t? The answer isn’t as clear as the video suggests, based on information that’s emerged since then. It’s a great cautionary tale against jumping to conclusions! Separately, F&B company Astons has decided to stop absorbing the service charge and GST for its Astons Steak & Salad chain, effectively raising its prices by about 19% in one go. Bad business move? Sign of the times? And what does it actually mean when a restaurant charges for service?(00:00) Tell You First(00:45) Intro(06:21) Fight at Vivocity Lift Goes Viral(33:47) Astons Raises Prices by 19%?(48:43) One Shiok Comment(51:20) One Shiok ThingOur New Podcast, TELL YOU FIRSTCheck out our new edutainment podcast that dives into a fascinating array of topics you never knew you needed to know!
