Donut Receipt

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.

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.
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

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.

Let me file that under D... for Donut.

…cause we all know what D is

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

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.
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.

Luckily, they're not bringing ink into this, only thermal paper!

Most receipts contain a time stamp. I could imagine a scenario where someone claimed Mitch (if he was still here) was involved in a crime and he could use the donut receipt as proof of innocence.

It's up to the discretion of the judge.

Friend had car stolen. Joyriders caused police chase but they got away. Police arrested friend. He had an ATM receipt time stamped from when the police were chasing the stolen car.

Judge didn't care.

This person has never had to file an expense claim for meals that are paid by the employer.

Yes, it's only a dollar or two. But it's a dollar or two that my employer has to pay extra.

I once picked up one of those dirt cheap breakfast toasts from burger King. My expense report stated "Worst breakfast ever. Never again."

Travel expense reimbursement --- though many companies have a "no receipt required if under $xyz" policy.

Man, I wish that was the case at places I worked at. My last company would give you stipends for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Try to spend that stipend at a convenience store because you don't eat breakfast and just want some coffee and a snack for later? Screw you, we're deducting from your paycheck for that.

I had a coworker who got caught on the wrong side of that policy. Since then, he'd always max out his stipend at every meal. Apps, desserts, etc. He'd get a second entree just to take back to his hotel as long as it wouldn't put him over the limit.

He probably cost the company hundreds extra because they wouldn't reimburse him for a bag of chips one time.
- Malicious compliance is a form of art.

I somehow hoped for donut recipes.

In my part of the world, the receipt proves that the sale was entered into the tax record, so the seller is not cheating on taxes by understating revenue.

Have you paid your yearly donut tax?

I want to got to this donut shop just to get this receipt.

So, they made the receipt longer?

I miss not caring about my budget. I also don't miss not caring about my budget.
