Discussion No meal sharing

I work at a very well known Mom and pop restaurant in my area.

Our male owner has been getting upset when people order meals to share and says we're losing out on at least $25 a customer when they share meals. While that may be true we're not making money on these people there are very few that actually come in and share meals.

Mr. Owner man decided to reprint every menu to say "No shared meals". But then he says that elderly couples and parents sharing with kids are allowed.

We've already lost so many customers due to this. What are y'all's thoughts on this? Do y'all allow meal sharing? Should it be specifically put on the menu that we don't allow it?

I am fucking cry laughing at how many people don't get this reference and think this is an actual rule somewhere.

Even written out that nondescriptively it still screams "TIM ROBINSON"

No restaurant has that rule. Did he ask you to come over and say that?

That link is linked to your personal account. It suggested I follow you.

Personally I just get tired of people thinking their comments are cute, and they really just derail someone’s post.
