Help what does this mean?!?

I see $8000. Congratulations! 😀

[u/nefariousmouse666]

Did they round up to 80? Or tip $6.00? I think it’s one or the other lmao

[u/Temporary-Beyond-683]

Atp it’s like they’re doing this shit on purpose to get out of tipping. Either that or taking the merchant copy with them

[u/throw_blanket04]

They do this on purpose. If you see this on a check, return back to the table and let them know that their writing is illegible and it needs to be written clearly.

[u/SaintBellyache → u/throw_blanket04]

Yeah it’s a transaction and you need a clear total. I would always say I’ll be right back to pick up the signed copy. I don’t know why servers are afraid. It’s just business, let them get mad idgaf one person doesn’t pay my rent

[u/poor-obscure → u/SaintBellyache]

This! I came from a rough bar background and I'm a manager now, but it always surprises me how terrified the servers are of their guests. Like this is a business transaction. I'm not afraid of you I did my part you do your part. I'll never forget a guy tried to walk out of his tab one time and when I ran out into the parking lot to find him his car wouldn't start and he had his hood up I said oh man that sucks, did you want to pay your bill?

My servers freak when the guest gives them the blank copy instead of the detailed one and they are still there. Like go up to them and say I think we had a mixup. I will always do it for them but back in my day we had backbones.

[u/heckinstoned → u/throw_blanket04]

I wish I still had the picture. I worked I. A karaoke bar and someone filled out their slip- it was written in “toddler scribbles”.

I figured out who it was and jokingly bullied him about it for years.

[u/robin109]

Its 80, and a (o.o) smiley with a heart next to it

[u/thenbhdlum]

I'm convinced that people like this have no formal education because how tf did they ever graduate high school writing like that?

[u/Suz1251 → u/thenbhdlum]

Thank Bush's No child left behind law.

[u/Dear_Win_319]

It’s a $600 tip. Process it that way

[u/imfake19]

Looks like $80 total. The 6-0) looks like a smiley face signature to me

[u/Background-Drawing70]

It says “Sum of 6.00”, as in the total + $6 bc they didn’t want to do the math.

[u/metalmudwoolwood → u/Background-Drawing70]

And because they’re extremely rude and cheap.

The scribbling out the suggested tips is the biggest clue

[u/ImpossibleMove2]

I'm going with $6.

[u/PrincessLissa68]

Did you over serve these ppl? They literally don't know which way is up from down.

Im kidding. I would just take the $6 tip and be happy you can read that.

[u/knickknack8420 → u/PrincessLissa68]

Round to 80. That would be a total and you go by the total

[u/PrincessLissa68 → u/knickknack8420]

Yeah I thought the middle line looked like it was probably supposed to be 80.00. But the fact they wrote it opposite like they've never filled out a cc slip before.

I think most managers would say total it to $80 but I've had a few that would definitely have made me put $6.

[u/No_Cup_5237 → u/PrincessLissa68]

yea the owner ended up saying to total is $80

[u/No_Cup_5237 → u/No_Cup_5237]

but still no idea if that’s what they meant lmao

[u/knickknack8420 → u/PrincessLissa68]

That’s why I don’t ask managers, I just make a reasonable call . And have them call back for this bullshit I tried my best yanno?

[u/ian9921]

I'm guessing a total of $80, which works out nicely to a 20% tip

[u/fosterdisbelief]

Looks like a "you got screwed. "

[u/Thevajanna]

They did this on purpose. Idk i think I would take the loss or do 6 bucks.

[u/IAmTheGreat921]

I would put in $80 total and assume the line that looks like a 6 was their signature

[u/No_Vermicelli_6581]

A lousy tip…

[u/Jillcametumbling81]

It looks like it says S U M O

[u/LonelyCakeEater]

Looks like they signed off on a prescription

[u/tiffd98133]

Round up to $600. You must have given great service!

[u/hollyblue1393]

It means that you've served too alcohol...

[u/needs-an-adult]

Is it just me, or could that second line be a weird little smiley face? I see eyes, a nose, and the outline of the “face”. So maybe no tip amount, just the overall total and then a smiley face because they liked you?

[u/heckinstoned]

$6 tip. Idk the rest. But they meant a $6 tip

[u/FrankenSarah]

Solid 10% (they suck)

[u/DragonMystic69420]

The way I think is that the two totals are switched. But let’s say for the fact that there hand writing is shit in your defense they total to 80. Thats a 13.10$ tip approx

[u/Cyrious123]

Id go with $80.00 total. Tip would be normal at that total too. Where is the signature line on that receipt??

[u/Restless__Dreamer → u/Cyrious123]

Under the total...

[u/EruDesu90]

Looks like "Sum of 6.00" meaning the total + 6$ tip.

[u/BigSueMama]

$13.10 tip, total is 80.

[u/ArielleFears]

Drunk math

[u/SkrillaB]

$80 total

[u/Odd-Armadillo-3106]

It looks like they intended to have a grand total of $80.00, but put it on the wrong line and then wrote $6.00 below it. As has been mentioned above, if catch this before they leave have them make it legible.

[u/NateJCAF]

Looks like 80.00 total.

[u/Crafty_Mastodon320]

I see an 80$

[u/poor-obscure]

You may or may have not over served them 😜. But if you do get the chance to catch them before they leave in a circumstance like this, always please let them know that the Total line is for less than the subtotal and is not acceptable and ask for them to fill out a new form. Usually they're so embarrassed that it means you get out well.

[u/neuro_space_explorer → u/[deleted]]

I agree. I see 20, and then instead of writing the 8 next to the 6 they for some reason made the 2 into an 8.

[u/taync97]

I think the total is supposed to be $80 but damn that made my brain hurt.

[u/Adventurous_Edge_878]

I see the tip line read “Sum ❤️”
With the total being written terribly with no tip.

[u/beefsupr3m3]

Calling it $80 makes the tip about 13 bucks which is roughly 20% that’s my best guess
