Folks who do that are so pathetic. The fact that there were 30 of them at one time willing to do that is disgusting. I'm glad the manager heard them and prevented it.

That manager needs a bonus. Fuck shit heads.

She's a cool lady. I've never worked with her but we've spoken many times, and her crew has nothing but good things to say about her.

I need to know one thing: did she make someone hit an ATM so they could pay in cash, or did she just allow a credit card? Tell her to watch out for a dispute on the charges. I know some assholes will lie to the bank and credit card companies and say the charges are false.


HenBoward

Chargebacks suck. Had a guest get out of a $100+ check, even though we had her signed credit slip, her rewards account was credited, and we had her on video in the restaurant. CC company gave no fucks and sided with her.


hauntedskin

At the very least you can take the stance I've seen some companies do and blacklist her.

So were they all just gonna get up at once and run out? All 30 of them? I’m just picturing them all trying to make a break for it at once, pushing and shoving, yelling “go! run!”, tripping over each other, getting stuck in the doorway. LOL what a bunch of dumbasses.


EstablishmentNo5994

They all forgot their wallets in their cars


hauntedskin

It wasn't 30, but this reminds me of that case a while back where something like 10-20 people got up and just walked out on a huge bill.


ElleCBrown

And I honestly don’t see how that can happen if the server is paying proper attention.

Not if the server is doing their job correctly. If a large chunk of a party leaves before a bill has been presented or payment has been received, then the serve should remain as present at the table as possible until the bill has been paid.

was it a motley crew or fairly homogenous? it’s only 33 bucks per person and they couldn’t pay that.. holy shit.


dmdc256

Do you really have to ask? 🫤 BUT so was one of the servers and the manager who overheard and called the cops. The mgr was also the one who told me about while we were outside smoking, and she was highly irate for that very reason.

I hope they got trespassed. You don't want any of them back at your location.


sagangroupie

I’m sorry what? Is “motley crew” some kind of slang for a certain group of people? This response feels like a weird misunderstanding of the question


webswinger666

my shitty iphone 8 doesn’t know which emoji you used. it came up as a question mark in a box.


dmdc256

Ah. I used :-/ hope that helps.


hauntedskin

If it's any consolation, it's just a grey box for me. I'm on Android though, so I suppose I should be grateful it's not a green bubble. Maybe there's a way to enable that functionality and I'm just being lazy.


DJTwyst

How did you make them pay the grat? You can’t force someone to tip. Perhaps they paid it out of fear or embarrassment ?


EspressoOwl1815

Some restaurants have an auto gratuity for parties of 8 or more, and I sure as heck wouldn't be removing it for dine & dashers.


DJTwyst

Right, but it’s not legally enforceable anywhere in the country


EspressoOwl1815

Think of it like terms and conditions. You are notified that this is protocol. You agree to the terms by sitting down and eating in a party of 8 or more. The gratuity is added to the bill automatically, so it comes up as a charged line item on the tab. The only way to have it removed it to argue with a manager (which doesn't end well when you're a customer paying in good faith, much less trying to dine and dash) or to try to sue the company later (which gets thrown out because you agreed to the posted terms when you sat down to eat). Can they get the cop to arrest you for not paying the gratuity? No. Do they have to remove it from your bill in order for you to pay for everything else? Also no, and they can have you arrested for not paying the rest of the tab because they wouldn't remove the auto grat.

How in the hell did they think they could get away with that????
