Pulled up to the drivethru and instead of just ordering like a normal person, I\u2019m staring at a handwritten sign taped to the window asking for \u201c$1 cash\u201d for charity in exchange for cookies. Not even on the system, not on the receipt, just straight up \u201chand it over.\u201d Yeah\u2026 no.<\/p>\n
I asked the cashier what that was about and she starts explaining it\u2019s for a \u201clocal cause\u201d like that\u2019s supposed to make it legit. I told her I\u2019m not handing random cash through a window with no record, no proof, nothing. I don\u2019t care if it\u2019s a dollar, it\u2019s the principle. If it\u2019s real, put it in the system like every other donation they push at checkout.<\/p>\n
She got all awkward and tried to laugh it off, but I wasn\u2019t playing along. I told her straight up it looks like a side hustle using company stuff and I\u2019m not funding it. I paid for my food and skipped the whole \u201cdeal\u201d completely.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not here to be guilt tripped into tossing money at a piece of paper taped to glass. If that makes me look stingy or heartless, then fine, because I\u2019m not about to pretend that setup didn\u2019t look shady.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
