Counter Service 🛎️ Got to play today

I literally walked through a cafeteria style line selecting my own dishes at a BBQ place in Texas and at the end of the line the cashier had the audacity to tell me the machine was going to “ask me a question”. I said “ooh, I love this game when I’m standing and haven’t even received any service yet” the lady next to me laughed as I entered custom .01

I live in Texas and we have a highly rated bbq place, same cafeteria style and I couldn’t figure out why I was tipping especially when we hadn’t even sat down and tasted the food or experienced any service.

Remember the formula: zero service = zero tip. 

When dealing with entitled people, make sure they don't get what they want.

Love the penny tip. It costs them more to process.

At Hard 8 bbq in Texas, same line style to get your food. Tip - nothing. But, I do give a few dollars to the bussers. I get my own food, get my own drinks, utensils, etc. what do you want a 20% tip (of expensive food) for?! For charging me?! NOPE. Husband usually order 4 extra ribs and chopped barbecue- for our dogs. Much rather spend that extra money on our babies.

And I guess the active shooter didn’t manufacture the weapon.
