I never take receipts for food because even if the food is awful, I'm not returning it. They might just serve it to someone else, and I don't want to contribute to that.

You should take it. Especially nowadays. You'll never know when you might need a solid alibi.

How could I have been getting an abortion? I was across town getting a donut. Jen L was the cashier. She saw me.

If I ever need to get an abortion, things are even more fucked up than I thought. I am a man. Though I suspect if men could get pregnant, abortions would be legal without any contestation.

The receipts for food aren't so that you can return it. They are for expenses record keeping. For example, some jobs have a food allowance; or special tax concessions for food bought while working. But to get those benefits you need to have evidence that you bought the food.

It's a critical health code violation to take the served food back into the kitchen, let alone serve it to another customer. Not that it DOESN'T happen, but it is unlikely.

I know it happens because I worked at Walmart and many of my coworkers would routinly put returned food back on the shelves from the go back bins when they were supposed to be trashed, because nobody ever wanted to do the trash process or even was told about it (I only knew how and that it was a thing because I would constantly waste time going on the company intraweb and doing lessons on all the positions in the store instead of working).
