  “I might get fired if I give a paid item away for free” is a completely reasonable thing for a minimum wage worker to worry about.

  I agree with the customer, of course, but let’s not pretend that it’s bootlicking when people have bills to pay

    I didn’t see anything where the customer was suggesting the server should bypass the rules. I was talking about the Anon responder who mocked the Anon customer for bitching about the policy.

        Thank you! No problem. I do that all the time.

    I agree, but feel it should be clarified that having bills to pay is not a disqualifier for bootlicking. “Just doing my job” and all.

      I’d wager more people are worried about their loss of income than making the boss an extra 50 cents, though

  Except the manager is going to notice the loss over the month and fire the worker for “stealing”.

  The worker is just trying to survive. The owner needs to be harassed.

  Okay, Karen.

  Tell me you’ve never worked a shitty “essential employee” job without telling me you’ve never had the kind of megalomaniac managers that these jobs attract.
