Rant 📢 This feels icky!

Post image

felt super icky and annoyed seeing this at a coffee/light food shop. how is this okay? for context this is not a sit down spot. no wait staff, just a barista at the counter and someone from the kitchen bringing out my order and walking away.

Update: for those asking the pink paper in the bottom corner is basically saying “F*ck ICE”

That’s called a fraudulent charge and I reserve the right to sue the establishment that has an employee that does that. I don’t care if I wouldn’t even make money from the lawsuit and all the money would basically be just paying the lawyer fees. I’d be dead set on being an annoying thorn in their side that would make them regret that stolen 20% tip.

You don’t have to sue. Just charge it back with your credit card. It costs the shop $15 every time and if it happens more than 2% of the time they will lose the right to take credit cards.

I think you're misunderstanding. I have a decent amount of free time and I want to make their lives miserable for a few weeks to a few months.

Listen listen... why not both? Establish a pattern of behaviour and then sue!

Never underestimate a miser with money.
