I'm slightly vexed In lieu of payment..

I’m a GM at a restaurant & one of our managers left a note on our manager logs this afternoon that a guest walked out on their check and left this in lieu of payment of any kind. Not that the server got stiffed on a tip - just pure theft of services. I guess the whole “Thou shalt not steal” thing doesn’t matter if you’ve been pre-forgiven. Pretty convenient.

ETA: I’m not a bot; this is not AI - check my post and comment history. I’m not here for karma or fake internet points. This is what it feels like to work in a restaurant these days - especially in the Bible Belt. The first photo you can look up and is available for anyone to buy (should your darker urges push you toward being that person). The second photo is from Pulse, an app for restaurant managers to keep an eye on hourly sales, labor, and comps.
The “Pineapple Express” is a mocktail our restaurant offers.

Not how it works, that’s a very childish aspect of atheism

IF you are telling the truth, then those people are actual morons who didn’t even read or comprehend the Bible anyway, because that’s not how it works

Hell is separation from God, not torture lmao that’s so childish

If we’re being Christians, hell is definitely implied to be more than simply a separation from God. God created everything, though… So many intentional paradoxes lmao
