    Lost my wallet today at a grocery store full of church dressed people. Locked the cards,then saw two usage attempts on two different cards. Of course, maybe it wasn’t one of the people who had just came from church…

      It could easily be someone who goes to church. My church has a community meal and a food pantry, and a lot of people who are welcome and who come for church services are homeless or food-insecure or addicts. And honestly anything that isn’t locked up walks away way too often. Jesus called for the church to serve the hurting and broken and needy so it shouldn’t be a surprise. You know what though? A lot of those people are willing to volunteer time and even give a little when they can.

      But the rich assholes that don’t tip and treat their servers like shit, they usually don’t help the church at all in any way. Maybe they throw in $20 a couple times a year to appease their conscience. Continue berating them by all means.

    Don’t forget to condemn the local homeless guy for asking you to spare some change while he also happens to own a cellphone.

    This church group used to come in sunday afternoons. No reservation. At least 12 people. Separate checks. They’d sit for over an hour and have a meeting with their pastor. None of them tipped or if they did they rounded up to the nearest dollar.

      We’ll just push that 4-top, 4-top, 6-top, 5-top together and make a table at this server station while blocking fire escapes.

      You’ve been rude and hateful towards Americans in several posts and it’s not okay. I’m considering banning you on my instance. You need to learn how to be respectful while sharing disagreement.

        Oh cry me a river. The fact is that your country is now threatening an economic war with the entire world and fucking directly ANNEXING MY COUNTRY. I"ll say it again, americans democratically elected dt, knowing who he was. The fact that no country in the world now can’t focus on any subject other then fighting back the USA (no one talks about environment, every country raises “defense” budget) makes it clear: your country is a threat to the survival of the human race. Like literally. So just ban me already from your instance lol, and go keep bullshitting the world about freedom of speech.
