Today, I ordered take out, and paid with a credit card. The cute cashier gave me the receipt to sign, and under 'tip' I gave a couple of dollars. I realized that I had given too much, crossed it out, and changed it. Unaware she was watching, She then responded, "Did you just lower the tip by $1?" FML

What does it matter if she saw you do it or not? She would have seen it crossed out in a little bit anyway. It's a weird thing that you would bother to cross it out and lower it by only a dollar, seeing as how a dollar is relatively insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but it's just weird as opposed to horrible. Plus, it was only take out, people don't normally tip on take out at all so if I were her, I'd feel grateful to have even gotten a couple dollars.

i was a waitress for 4 years. when i order take out i always tip even if just a little bit -take out isnt like you are waited on hand and foot. AND every minimum wage job has a tip jar this day.

as a professional she shouldnt be commenting to you on how you tip.

if youre eating out, tip 15-20%. picking up, a couple bucks is sufficient. but commenting on it was inappropriate on her part.
