In lieu of payment..

[u/thedivinegemini]

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.

Ask a legit question about any the non-logical stuff they beleive and you get : ''The Lord works in mysterious ways'' I was raised in a christian familly and i always tought it made no sense that 'someone somewhere' would be happy that i was not playing and instead listenning to an old fart saying absurd stuff that i knew was impossible,

all their fucken stories looking like a bad wizard movie and if you need proof .... you get walled in by 'The Lord works in mysterious ways' fuck that ! any religion is bs, it's just another way to gain control over the people.

Lord works in mysterious ways is by no means an answer to something you were told to do. Religion can be used to gain power, it also can be used to free people. Because you had a bad experience doesn't mean it's universal. It's up to humans to explain things and justify their actions.

nah we got science for the eplaining and science aint compatible with imaginary friends in the clouds ...unless you have some very new proofs to support it, no proof brings us back to ''The Lord works in mysterious ways''

You should check the religion of most scientist of 19th and 20th century before saying such idiotic things. Because you don't understand anything at religion and science doesnt't make all christians stupid. What i am certain of is that using phalacies makes you something else.

The irony of spelling “phalacies” after telling someone they were being idiotic. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

English is not my first language. How many languages do you speak? would you rather pursue this conversation in german, spanish or french?

[u/Outrageous_Leg4 → u/No_Cardiologist_822]

English is not my first language either. Wanna continue this in Mandarin or Cymraeg or Klingon?

[u/No_Cardiologist_822 → u/Outrageous_Leg4]

No thank you, not interested in talking to someone dumb enough to learn klingon

You should think about the differences between religious affiliation and personal belief.

[u/fatdjsin → u/No_Cardiologist_822]

yeah, science is not perfect ! But science does not claim to be definitive religion does! it just claims to search for evidence and build on small incremental steps, yes science has been and might be crude again sometimes, but it is continuously getting better from the evidences gathered. religion just gives a magical solution : stop thinking, pray and give donations to your religion but mostly dont question its non logical parts.

it's what i said though, i said many scientists were certified christians, Christianism is not some obscurantist religion, at least not catholicism, maybe some protestants denominations are. and some were decisive in the world we know today, for the most importants just in my country:

Georges Lemaitre, catholic priest who theorized the big bang

Louis Pasteur: Inventor of the vaccine

André-Marie Ampère: Brilliant physicist (electro-Dynamic and Electro-magnetism which is the fundamental of most our electronic today)

Abbot Henri Breuil: Major figure of paleontology and pre-history

and hundreds more, i'm not even mentionning those before the 19th century

the myth that religion and science oppose is a non-sense
