If I have a charge for 7 cents on my work CC and no receipt, I have to go through the seven layers of hell to beg for clemency.
I once spent over an hour trying to get a receipt for a refund that was higher than expected. (error in our companies favor)
You can buy donuts with you company card? Lucky
I never take receipts for food because even if the food is awful, I’m not returning it. They might just serve it to someone else, and I don’t want to contribute to that.
You should take it. Especially nowadays. You’ll never know when you might need a solid alibi.
How could I have been getting an abortion? I was across town getting a donut. Jen L was the cashier. She saw me.
If I ever need to get an abortion, things are even more fucked up than I thought. I am a man. Though I suspect if men could get pregnant, abortions would be legal without any contestation.
It’s a critical health code violation to take the served food back into the kitchen, let alone serve it to another customer. Not that it DOESN’T happen, but it is unlikely.
I know it happens because I worked at Walmart and many of my coworkers would routinly put returned food back on the shelves from the go back bins when they were supposed to be trashed, because nobody ever wanted to do the trash process or even was told about it (I only knew how and that it was a thing because I would constantly waste time going on the company intraweb and doing lessons on all the positions in the store instead of working).
The receipts for food aren’t so that you can return it. They are for expenses record keeping. For example, some jobs have a food allowance; or special tax concessions for food bought while working. But to get those benefits you need to have evidence that you bought the food.
In the USA, business expenses are tax deductible.
The letters look data crushed, I’m high
Do you remember a time where the receipt had the name of the store, the time and date of the purchase, an itemized list of what you bought, and the tax you paid and nothing else?
Nowadays there’s also a transaction id, a qr code, a coupon for your next purchase, a quote of the day, a novel, and some ads printed on there. My last order of french fries came with a piece of paper that is longer than my forearm. Ikea spits out half a metre of thermal paper when I order 2 hot dogs. Whyyyu?
I get a receipt for everything, that way if anyone asks if I have the receipt, the answer is always yes, not gee was this one of the things I thought was too inconsequential to keep the receipt for.
Also, if I’m ever audited by the IRS I’m going to inundate them with so many receipts, they’ll owe ME money when it’s over.
I do occasionaly buy a donut, but never for myself. So I cary it around with me for a while, often visiting other shops with it. I’d rather have a receipt with me, don’t need any funny experiences.
I used to like Mitch. I still do, but I used to, too.
People either love him or they hate him. Or they think he’s ok.
Is anyone indifferent?
A donut receipt is an alibi. Just saying.
A donut receipt is an alibi.
Makes me wonder if there is a market for receipts as alibis
I came here to buy an alibi, and you’re trying to sell me wonder.
You’ll get an alibi receipt for your alibi receipt btw
And can sell that receipt to someone else who needs a receipt. It’s not a pyramid scheme
I usually get a reciept, but that’s because I like to scan/archive them and keep track of how prices change over time
- Sir, you can’t leave without paying for that donut.
- But I just paid for it! Here’s the receipt.
And that’s why you need a receipt for a donut.
Quickly stuffs donut into mouth.
Wfathf Donutfff?
Punches man in stomach. Donut comes out.
eat the chewed donut problem solved
Ewwww.
I had a friend who liked to sulk around in a trench coat. He bought a grocery store donut and promptly tossed the receipt.
He was soon stopped by grocery security for theft. After some hassle they tracked down his receipt and let him go, but yeah that’s what donut receipts are for.
You can see how the main issue wasn’t the receipt, right?
Hold it. Did you pay for that receipt?
The actual answer is for reimbursement, for example if you’re buying them for a work meeting or something.
Sure … but a single donut?
Honestly the process for getting reimbursed is annoying enough that I’m only going to do it for stuff that’s more than $10. I don’t need to be reimbursed often though
Reimbursement also counts for work issued credit cards. You go on a trip for work, you don’t need to pay for anything in my realm :)
Luckily, they’re not bringing ink into this, only thermal paper!
Let me file that under D… for Donut.
…cause we all know what D is
What the actual f-
uck is up with th-
e hyphenation?
Looks like tex formatting, they want each line to be the same width, so the badness value for hyphens must have been less than just using bigger spaces, which they also did
This explanation sounds very reasonable, and it makes me feel even more disgusted.
\documentclass[unholyhyphen]{donutreceipt}
Have you never read a single thing of print media ever? Books, newspapers, and magazines have been hyphenating words to keep uniform blocks of text for over 5 centuries
Yeah, but they do it correctly.
Sorry, don’-
t you mea-
n Yeah, bu-
t they do i-
t correctly?
