generosity is always returned one way or another

This reminds me of the phrase, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". If you do not say anything to the management of the restaurant, it will continue till someone calls them out and they have to fire additional people for stealing.

In case anyone is interested in the update, I disputed the charge for $6 (turns out they charged me an additional $6) and I disputed the charge. I am 1000% positive I totaled the amount also to $44 which was an $11 tip so this restaurant fraudulently charged me that amount. My dispute was credited immediately and AMEX said they will no f/u with the restaurant.

The restaurant is Lido Restaurant in Tempe. My wifes' aunt is still considering this place for the Celebration of Life and I told her about it. We have no plans of telling her Aunt because she liked the place today but we will keep one eye open if this event happens there.

I always drop the "customer copy" receipt in a drink glass.

Often, I put $1 + change to round up to a whole dollar, then leave a tip in cash. Actually better for the employee, they only have to report the cc amount.
