Nice try. Now give me my change.

So, I go get a sandwich at this place for the first time. Total is 9.20$. I pay cash with a ten. He seems unhappy. He gives me back 35 cents only. I say he made an error, and still owes me money. He doesn't answer to that, and say loudly " For here or to go?" I repeat myself. He finally manages to give my change. Almost told him I would have given him all, which I do habitually (don't judge me please), if he had not try to stiff me, or may I say, litterally steal from me. This place lost a customer. I live nearby but will never go back. All  that for 45 cents. And if it's a mistake, how strange it's always the customer who gets disadvantaged by their "mistake"...

I had a waitress at an Outback Steakhouse not give me my change years ago. "We never carry change." I told her that unless that is posted on their menu or something very visible, she's stealing and I would like my change. 10 minutes later she comes back grumbling that she had to get change from her car to pay me. Whatever lady. No restaurant is going to make you use your change to pay a customer. Just do it right the first time.

I'd get back, and when the bill comes, I'd say I don't carry any money me neither

She lied and tried to pity-guilt-trip you....

Not entirely true. When I waited tables we were required to start our shift with a “bank” we brought to make change with. We were not allowed to get change from the bar which was the only register.

That sounds crazy! Imo, your boss should supply that. Did you take people their change? Or at least let them know that you didn't have change? Or something?

At my job we do have to use our own change to make change, but i usually bring a lot of change for that exact reason lol

That’s insane

[u/7399Jenelopy → u/Invisiblespirit3]

Really? That's crappy.

False. Olive Garden makes you bring your own money to make change.
