No Change, No Problem
For a while, I worked at a pizza parlor. All of the menus and the website made it clear that delivery cost no more than $20, and this guy had been a customer long enough to know that. But when I told him this while explaining why I didn’t have enough change, he became irritated and said that it wasn’t his responsibility and that drivers should always have enough cash on them.
So I did what any reasonable person would do in that situation: I told him not to worry about it and that I would pay for the order. He believed he’d won a free calzone for those few seconds, until I took it out and began eating it as I walked back to my car.
