  • Sir, you can’t leave without paying for that donut.
  • But I just paid for it! Here’s the receipt.

And that’s why you need a receipt for a donut.

I had a friend who liked to sulk around in a trench coat. He bought a grocery store donut and promptly tossed the receipt.

He was soon stopped by grocery security for theft. After some hassle they tracked down his receipt and let him go, but yeah that’s what donut receipts are for.

You can see how the main issue wasn’t the receipt, right?

I’ve given you multiple thousands in revenue, the only times I stole something was a 1€ item because your self scan shopping cart is slow af, and freaks out if you put two items in where you need to manually select the size of both (yeah, of course I just bought 5l of Joghurt and not just 500ml, lol). And fixing it is hella complicated, so fix your system. And a plastic chip for the shopping cart, because I don’t have coins, but need to lock away my bags (requiring one coin/chip) and get a cart (requiring one coin/chip). I scanned the receipt to get out of the sco area. Check the cams yourself, idiots.

In my part of the world, the receipt proves that the sale was entered into the tax record, so the seller is not cheating on taxes by understating revenue.

This person has never had to file an expense claim for meals that are paid by the employer.

Yes, it’s only a dollar or two. But it’s a dollar or two that my employer has to pay extra.

I once picked up one of those dirt cheap breakfast toasts from burger King. My expense report stated “Worst breakfast ever. Never again.”

Have you never read a single thing of print media ever? Books, newspapers, and magazines have been hyphenating words to keep uniform blocks of text for over 5 centuries

Looks like tex formatting, they want each line to be the same width, so the badness value for hyphens must have been less than just using bigger spaces, which they also did

This explanation sounds very reasonable, and it makes me feel even more disgusted.
