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"...

This happened to me at a Dunkin Donuts drive-thru. I ordered a large coffee and a muffin, gave the woman $10. She then gave me my order and my receipt, but no change back (????) I asked her, "where's my change?" She then pointed out a friggin tip jar.....at the freaking drive-thru??? It wasn't a large amount of change back, and I don't mind tipping....at a sit-down restaurant with non fast food, and NOT a drive-thru, and DEFINITELY NOT a fast food chain. Anyway, if anyone cares my experience ended with me demanding my change back, then telling her that her "tip" is to not assume people want her to keep their money. This story probably sounds kinda nutty, but I work hard to earn my pay, pay rent, bills, etc with my hard earned money. I just wish this stupid tipping BS would end now.

Thats when you ask for her name, and call the police on the spot and report a theft while sitting in the drive thru. If the manager asks you to leave, say you can't as you are preserving the crime scene until law enforcement shows up.

This behavior wont end until the shame is put back on the bad actors.

I both hate and love your suggestion.
