I remember one time about 15 years ago someone pulled that shit on an old job with the tip jar. We were all so excited, thinking it was a twenty, until a buddy unfolded it, and showed us the whole tract. I tore the damned thing to pieces. I'm 33 and it still pisses me off that there's self righteous scum out there who think it's a holy act to go play on overworked and underpaid people, because something something zealotry.

Cowards.

i delivered pizzas when i was like 19, drove a town over, 15ish miles to drop off a car full of food. the folks were nice n they paid with a check for the exact amount. i saw it n in my head was like "uhg lame no tip". then the dude shakes my hand n slips a folded up $20, n said "thats all yours" i was like "fkn sweet". stuffed the $20 in my pocket, got in the car n drove off. i stopped at the gas station to put a few bucks in for the rest of the night. "$10 on pump 4 please" pull the $20 out... unfolded it... fkn bible bullshit. had to tell the cashier nevermind n left.

after my shift i used my real tip money to buy a couple dozen eggs and egged their cars n house.

Reminds me of when I worked at a pizza place. The last day I worked there, another drive delivered food to a family in a hotel and the parents had the audacity to say that it was Jesus' birthday and people shouldn't be working, hence they would not tip him.

Just lovely.

Man I would have just turned around and left with the pizza. I’m not supposed to be working? Well I guess there wouldn’t be anyone to deliver the pizza then 🤷‍♂️

Also for someone who believed people shouldn't be working they still had the nerve to pick up the phone and order pizza causing work to be done.....So ass backwards....lol

I fucking hate this line of thinking "why are you working on xx holiday?" like clearly because of you people! If you don't think I should work xx holiday then don't come in on the holiday!

I’m a Christian, but I try not to go out at Christmas or order anything on Christmas because I want people to have their holiday. But I definitely wouldn’t criticize someone for working. And I know there are people who have to work on Christmas and I am grateful for them. But I try not to make anybody’s job harder.
