Are you kidding? I've accidentally (almost) taken money from a tip jar. I've accidentally (almost) left without paying for something. Many times.
Maybe you never get absentminded, but, well, what can I tell you? Other people do.
And in none of those times was violence close to being an option - I was usually just made aware of what I'd almost done, and fixed it.
- breck 8y agoWell I'm not necessarily serious about losing teeth. It could be a torn collar or a bloody nose. My point is OP got off lucky and I'd advocate for a little more contrition in this post. The explanation also loses sympathy with me when I pay close attention to his words: how many times have you seen a tip "tray" and a change "cup"? I've had thousands of restaurants experiences and have seen that zero times. It's change tray, tip jar/cup. They never vary. He's trying to make it sounds like it was an easy mistake to make instead of just owning up to extreme absentmindedness. Anyway, I think this has potential as a hilarious tale, but in its current form is tone-deaf.
