A lot of ethnic restaurants in Orlando stopped taking cards all together. Korean, Ethiopian, Jamaican, and Cuban.

It's like they got together and made it their 2019 resolution. Happened all at once here.

Now I'm back to carrying checks and cash like a senior citizen.

Hell, about 10 years ago, I got pissed off at Papa John's Pizza for charging a forty cent upcharge if you paid with a check. Delivery person told me to tell them I was paying with cash when I ordered and they couldn't collect the fee. I did this for a few years and I think they did away with the whole thing when they started pushing online ordering.

Exactly. Waiter for life jobs are for those that refuse to do something physical. we get it they arent smart enough to do something else. Then you gotta get some dirt under those nails

Good lord. I wish you mouth breathing dumbasses could just be forced to eat food from gas stations and fast food places.

Why? Because we are smart enough to not be waiters?

In a real restaurant (not the shitholes people like you visit), you would be laughed out of the place for not knowing a damn thing about food, service, wine, etc.

Before you say it, I'm not nor have ever been in the service industry. I could never have a job where I deal with stupid people like you.

You're shocked that some of these keyboard kommandos would take the passive-aggressive approach?

OR, don’t be a prick and try being a man. Take it up with the owner/manager if you have the intestinal fortitude to do it. Demand the charge to be taken off the bill.

Gotcha. My bad

Although I seriously doubt a truly high end place would charge a credit card fee
