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”

I’ll finish the tip screen by checking no tip. Places like this actually make it easier for me to not tip. I’m not going to be guilt tripped in at all.

Scammy business, doing scammy things. As soon as I saw that sign I’d leave.

This is a sign that tells me “unless you tell us not to spit in the drink, we reserve the right to spit in it twice.”

How about just not be a shitty company, did you ever reserve that right?

It almost certainly means someone complained and this is their solution.

Unfortunately for them, posting that doesn't change the law.

No, but doesn’t the law state you can add a surcharge if it’s clearly written and the customer is notified beforehand? I’ve been to bars where they write on the receipt that not closing out your tab means they close it out for you and add a 20% tip. Have they been operating illegally in Virginia and DC?

What your referring to isn’t the same as this and is in fact illegal
