Isn't it unlawful to reproduce US currency? lpbk2713 Jan 2016 #1

It's legal as long as it's different enough from a real bill. jeff47 Jan 2016 #2

OK, thanks. lpbk2713 Jan 2016 #6

And it's only printed on one side. jmowreader Jan 2016 #20

To clarify, you mean physically larger or smaller Tab Jan 2016 #40

I think it's legal if it's not a full bill. DetlefK Jan 2016 #5

WWJD? Would Jesus stiff the waitstaff? N/t gollygee Jan 2016 #4

The waitress was not stiffed oberliner Jan 2016 #21

If she provided adequate service then yes she was. Gormy Cuss Jan 2016 #116

Good point oberliner Jan 2016 #121

This shit from a tax exempt entity. The audacity! Takket Jan 2016 #8

Too many pastors preach politics from the pulpit. Blus4u Jan 2016 #105

I'd like the person who left that for the waitress to get one instead of his/her paycheck sometime. TeamPooka Jan 2016 #9

Pretty low. linuxman Jan 2016 #11

I like to think about the NEXT time one of those idiots ate there... Lizzie Poppet Jan 2016 #15

They probably wouldn't do that, because that's illegal... jmowreader Jan 2016 #25

Yep. Iggo Jan 2016 #33

You're absolutely right, and that's why you can rest assured that it never ever happens. Iggo Jan 2016 #102

Thats Fucked Up! maveric Jan 2016 #16

screw you in the name of God.... spanone Jan 2016 #17

Another in a long line of excuses to deny tipping. LanternWaste Jan 2016 #19

Please note that the person did leave a real tip along with the pamphlet oberliner Jan 2016 #22

But you know that they were secretly laughing at the thought of the waitress Human101948 Jan 2016 #27

I think two different stories are being conflated here oberliner Jan 2016 #28

Exactly. nt cwydro Jan 2016 #31

The server served more than 1 person at that table. greyl Jan 2016 #44

A tip was left along with the pamphlet oberliner Jan 2016 #45

Wooptie do, and some asshole from that church left that stupid tract. greyl Jan 2016 #46

If you are a true believer, then you think you are doing something good oberliner Jan 2016 #48

That's just one of the colossal problems with Religious thinking, greyl Jan 2016 #50

I hope the manager exercises the right to refuse service as well. nadinbrzezinski Jan 2016 #54

The tip was 8 percent. 80 cents per $10 on the bill. haele Jan 2016 #64

I definitely support the set wage/no tip idea oberliner Jan 2016 #66

The bait and switch is cruel. Combined with a shitty tip- 8% is a shitty tip- its noteworthy. Warren DeMontague Jan 2016 #77

There was no bait and switch oberliner Jan 2016 #83

Putting a phony printed half $20 to lure her into reading about Jesus isn't a bait and switch? Warren DeMontague Jan 2016 #85

That was a different story oberliner Jan 2016 #87

Gotcha. Warren DeMontague Jan 2016 #126

totally, totally agree - get rid of tips! rurallib Jan 2016 #104

I do 20%, but only because that is American custom CommonSenseDemocrat Jan 2016 #124

I don't see anywhere Megahurtz Jan 2016 #72

That's why I added the reply oberliner Jan 2016 #82

8% is a funny definition of "a real tip" Orrex Jan 2016 #80

We are talking about a difference of $3 here oberliner Jan 2016 #84

It's an asshole move whatever the intent Orrex Jan 2016 #88

If they had left a 20 percent tip plus the pamphlet would that also be an "asshole move" ? oberliner Jan 2016 #89

If they disguised the pamphlet as money, then it's an asshole move Orrex Jan 2016 #92

The pamphlet left behind in this case DID NOT look like money. oberliner Jan 2016 #93

Lovely Orrex Jan 2016 #94

Agreed oberliner Jan 2016 #95

What's the big idea, agreeing with me? Orrex Jan 2016 #96

Fighting is definitely more fun! oberliner Jan 2016 #110

I definitely conflated them, but only because I mixed them up. Orrex Jan 2016 #112

Here I disagree with. Leaving a religious tract even with a super tip is assholish. Gormy Cuss Jan 2016 #117

If that waitstaff was anything like I was when I waited tables, ladyVet Jan 2016 #107

He should've left more money oberliner Jan 2016 #109

Was there something wrong with the service? Warren Stupidity Jan 2016 #111

Sounds like he/she just wants to defend rusty fender Jan 2016 #119

Time for a change. silverweb Jan 2016 #23

I thought that wasnt going over well, and places were switching back to tips. Travis_0004 Jan 2016 #79

Not that I've heard. silverweb Jan 2016 #100

What would be an even better response....... WillowTree Jan 2016 #24

That was my first thought as well, Sherman A1 Jan 2016 #29

Also the pamphlet was not disguised as a $20 bill oberliner Jan 2016 #26

Don't throw facts around when DU is getting its collective poutrage panties on. cwydro Jan 2016 #30

Some folks seem to prefer quick outrage to careful information collection oberliner Jan 2016 #32

I hear you there. cwydro Jan 2016 #35

It doesn't change the fact Facility Inspector Jan 2016 #47

You mind taking a look at the other side then imagining how it looks folded? greyl Jan 2016 #43

The other side of that fake bill is posted above oberliner Jan 2016 #58

Rude! smirkymonkey Jan 2016 #71

Yes. That makes it all better. LiberalAndProud Jan 2016 #49

The person left a chintzy tip along with a pamphlet oberliner Jan 2016 #91

A cheap tip with no explanation of why other than a religious tract isn't worse? Gormy Cuss Jan 2016 #118

Well the pamphlet led to the church getting that note oberliner Jan 2016 #123

How so? druidity33 Jan 2016 #78

The OP is conflating two separate incidents oberliner Jan 2016 #90

Do the servers in Japan work off of tips , or receive an average wage for serving or a hybrid? Person 2713 Jan 2016 #60
