Gotta love people who tip with gospel tracts. 🤧 (i.redd.it)

I hand those back or rip in half and throw them away in front of them. I really hate people pushing their religion on me.

I was just like, “Thanks.” 😬

This is the most obnoxious way to spread the Gospel and it’s a waste of paper.
VerucaGotBurned 2 points 1y ago
I did that too the first time because it surprised me. Now I make a point of handing it back and firmly telling them "I don't want this".

Or chuck e cheese tokens. 🙄

You know, I would probably enjoy this one.
strangeyeena [OP] 4 points 1y ago
Lmao. Someone tipped you in Chuck E Cheese tokens? That’s foul.

Keep it, and then when they come back give it to them instead of their change 😂. Or give it to them instead of their drink. “Here, this is more valuable than any beverage.”

BRUH. I’m dead. I wish I didn’t toss it now. 🤣

One of our regulars tips with lotto tickets. One day he gave me and the other high schooler one each and I told him he gave the only two high schoolers here tickets we couldn’t even cash. All in good fun though.😂

Oh whaaaa?! That’s awesome! I remember a security guard that came in daily gave everyone at my old store pepper spray. I also had two other regulars that brought me bath&bodyworks for Christmas. I really do love some customers.

Omg i wud love that! I love bath and body works so much!! I do love regulars because at my store, theres this one awesome lady who every year for christmas gives each barista $100 and this past year she did that but also gave my manager a gift bag for me and i grabbed it from my managers car before i left work and i nearly had a heart attack. There was $500 in there. She views us as humans and not just coffee making robots. She has no idea how much that helped me with medical expenses since i have a few medical issues. And theres other regulars who hand out regular visa gift cards, wawa gift cards and other amounts of cash specifically for each barista.

Same type of people to pray over you while you're just trying to work

As if their cheap bible verse pamphlet or card will suddenly convert me and make me appreciate them more than a nice tip lol
strangeyeena [OP] 1 points 1y ago
I’ve suddenly realized that I’m a dirty filthy sinner that needs saving. 😔

Um. I don't think tips are meant to make us appreciate anyone.
MiaLedger -6 points 1y ago
To be fair, they do this because they care about you whether you agree with them or not.

I appreciate the gesture.
strangeyeena [OP] 6 points 1y ago
It’s nice that they care, but it just brought up a lot of bad memories for me. 😕
MiaLedger 2 points 1y ago
Oof, I'm sure they didn't mean to, but that's unfortunate.
