One time my card declined for “no reason” but they claim fraud protection. No bitch, you just made me LOOK like a fraudster in public.
My work has shit internet. The payment processor always gets hung up for close to a minute. I have to constantly reassure the customers that “its not you, its me” and “this happens all the time, its totally normal”.
I think they appreciate it.Thats what she said.
Legit some of the scariest moments of my life.
Cash gang rise up 💸
“Kept you waiting, huh?”
I thought the title said “wipe”. Very different vibe.
The worst are the systems that play a jeopardy-esque jingle while it’s waiting.
Oh goodness, I’ve not seen that yet. That sounds awful!
At the first panel, I thought this was going to about tipping.
The off sales near my house recently added this, why tf would I tip when you’re grabbing a 6 pack that’s 2 steps away from the window? Gtfo with that shit. Tipping is for quality service in a sit down restaurant or for a delivery driver bringing me something cause I’m too lazy or drunk to do it myself.
Even then, tipping should be abolished and business owners should simply pay a proper fuckin wage instead of using customers to subsidize their profits.
Agreed. I tip when being served at a table because I know the shitty system requires it, but no way I’m tipping in any other situation!
The only caveat I had before I retired from drinking is that tipping the bar tenders well at places you frequent will very quickly result in stronger drinks. I know many bar tenders work for tips, but we usually frequent places where they’re paid a standard wage above non-tipped minimum.
At a local Mexican restaurant we actually had to ask them to stop because it the on the rocks Margarita ended up being a cup of tequila with a splash of mixer. Not the best drink to enjoy with a meal.
But even though most of the staff has changed and we don’t drink at the bar anymore, my wife still gets an extra shot thrown into her frozen Margarita. But we also both are ex-food service, so we’re always friendly and understanding when something goes wrong.
It makes me sad just how surprised wait staff get when we treat them like people.
Sorry, my vyvanse hasn’t kicked in yet, so I rambled.
My sisters girlfriend tips at places like dairy Queen, which is just fucking mental to me. Why are we tipping at regular minimum wage places now???
Tipping culture is out of control, and this is just more corporate greed further exploring an already massively exploitative practice. I tip for people who make sub-minimum tipped wages, and that’s begrudgingly because I’m expected to supplement the wages of restaurant workers, but fuuuuuuuck doing that to regular wage places. 15-20% at a sit down place is bad enough, but now we gotta fucking help these massive corpo fucks underpay their people and skim off the tips (assuming the workers see any of it)?? No. It’s hard for all of us right now, I get it, but still, no. I just don’t go to those sorts of places really anymore for that reason.
I’m not opposed to people tipping if they want to and can afford it. It’s doing it because you feel obligated by societal pressure that’s fucked up.
Lol. The eye contact is the funniest part.
Thank you for this.
It’s been a while for me since I felt like that, but I’m happy those days are behind me. May they never come back.
I remember making sure to get gas after groceries since the pumps near me would only preauthorize a dollar, letting me effectively extend my credit limit by just a few dollars enough to scrape by yet again.
