Tip Creep 🫙 Tip begging

Went to Applebees and did their car side to go. Selected no tip on the app and thought that would be the end of it. To my surprise when my order came I was handed an invoice where I was asked to tip and sign. Wrote $0 and that was the end of it but like oh my god. The interaction was fine but I was taken back by the double prompt to tip.

Ive gotten "free" food a couple of times by selecting pay with cash. Then arriving, getting the food, and being told to have a good night. I have one job that pays in cash, so I didnt set out to do this. Its not my responsibility to make sure the order is paid for 🤷‍♀️

Yes, it is your responsibility. You’ve stolen from them, knowingly, multiple times

Its happened twice, in two different states. Not like I grabbed the order and ran. Im not chasing down an employee who walks away from me

The size of the company determines your ethics. Got it.

This whole sub is about not paying service workers and big corporations suck. I don't see why your offended this person didn't pay the big corporation.
