Yeeah, so, don’t most restaurants just throw out the uneaten food nowadays, out of concern for getting sued over hygiene issues?

I worked at a restaurant a couple of years ago and we would just take excess food home still.

It’s a theft thing. Middle managers are concerned about employees purposely making accidents so they may eat. It’s all about that money honey
Glytch@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I work for a pizza place and routinely take home orders that didn’t get picked up, maybe fancier restaurants just throw their stuff out. We also give those orders to people experiencing homelessnness if they stop in around closing time.
sukhmel@programming.dev 10 months ago
That’s good to hear ❤️
bassomitron@lemmy.world 10 months ago
They have that policy, but most shift managers aren’t assholes and don’t care. Also, I know a lot of places around where I live donate the excess food to shelters.
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Who do you think throws it out? It’s not the manager, but probably one of the regular employees. They can just as easily “throw” it in their car instead…
Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I now know why all the restaurants require txt message confirmation of order now.
answersplease77@lemmy.world 10 months ago
and it has to be prepaid, or the delivery driver pays it out of their pocket. I don’t understand how OP’s thing works, most likely fake and gay
Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The restaurants I order from don’t require prepay. You can pay online or when you pickup your order.
ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 10 months ago
what delivery driver? Are you drunk, fake or gay?

I hate my ex wife, haha, women bad
damnedfurry@lemmy.world 10 months ago
$500 says you’ve never replied to a post where a woman implies her ex-husband was a bad person with “I hate my ex husband, haha, men bad”
SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 10 months ago
but maybe they love their husband

Hating your ex and actively trying to negatively affect them years after divorce are not the same thing lol
Bunch of children on this post smh
manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
These damn women, we cant let them keep getting away with it, youre so right!
FiskFisk33@startrek.website 10 months ago
some ex partners absolutely hate each other’s guts, that’s not a chauvinistic thing, that’s an unfortunate but un-gendered fact of life.
manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
Youre being far to forgiving and understanding of the average 4chan misogynist. After 3 years if youre still doing this petty controlling shit, just a little reminder, trying to get under yheir skin, maybe youre the issue
xep@fedia.io 10 months ago
It doesn't seem unreasonable to me that someone dislikes their ex-wife. It's almost implied with the term "ex" that there was something wrong with the relationship that couldn't be salvaged. Must everything be seen through the lens of misogyny?

If you’re still some obsessed with your ex that you’re still trying to get petty revenge 3 years later, by no stretch of the imagination are you winning.

I’ve never heard of being able to order food without paying for it
AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 10 months ago
Where I live you can order food and pay the delivery person with cash at your door. So the restaurant will prepare the food and send it out without taking any payment.
nutsack@lemmy.world 10 months ago
what if you just punch the guy in the face and take it
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
You’ve never ordered for local pickup? Just order over the phone or select “pay in store” online.
nutsack@lemmy.world 10 months ago
i tried once and they told me to call uber eats or whatever
Nicoleism101@lemm.ee 10 months ago
I still have -60$ balance in one app from not picking up the order
KevonLooney@lemm.ee 10 months ago
This just means the chefs / wait staff had to work a little harder for nothing. They’re making the food and obviously not getting a tip.
slazer2au@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The employee is still paid for producing the cooked food. The restaurant itself is not paid.
Also fuck tipping and pay people livable wages.
Gullible@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Robbed the kitchen of a couple minutes, robbed the host of a couple minutes, robbed the company of a couple bucks worth of food. Essentially victimless. The restaurants I worked at offered unclaimed food to staff for half price or free. Not a huge deal, essentially harmless. Half hour before close usually isn’t an inconveniently busy time.
Scubus@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Didn’t rob the kitchen a couple minutes. They did their job. And in this case, they may get to take home extra food that they otherwise wouldn’t have been able to. They literally get paid extra at the resteraunts dime
KevonLooney@lemm.ee 10 months ago
I’m just saying that isn’t coming out of the pockets of the “corporate restaurant”. A lot of stuff gets thrown away anyway. The real people who are “paying for” the free food are restaurant workers who want to clean up and go home.
JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Probably more effective to give to a food pantry to avoid the corporate profit cut, but the thought is very nice.
IMongoose@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Many restaurants let people pay when they pick up or get the food delivered. So doing this costs the restaurant money, not OP. That’s why he’s spoofing his info too, if he paid they probably wouldn’t care enough to ban the number.
JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Okay cool, I thought they were ordering online and pre paying.

I am not quite sure what the joke is about, could you explain? Those helmets seem to be used for preventing injuries in case of health conditions like epilepsy, but I can’t make a connection at all

Three birds with one stone is pretty good. Feed poor worker, screw corpos, fuck over exwife.

wdym? He orders but never shows up and pays
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 10 months ago
What is corporate profit cut?
workerONE@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The restaurant is making food and it cuts into their profit
Boxscape@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
I’m guessing it means he’s calling franchise restaurants and not mom and pop shops.
JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
I thought they’d be ordering online and paying in advance. But if not, sounds okay
