Must have been obvious by the handwriting or something. Otherwise, there doesn't seem like enough to warrant arresting her.

I take pictures of receipts I leave until they post to my account. I don't trust anyone.

Do you make a habit of checking your credit card transactions nightly to make sure it's what its supposed to be?

Honestly waiters could be doing this to me every week and id have no idea

Yeah, I think most wouldn't notice.

And I seriously doubt that this is the first time she's done this.

$6 tip on that is cheap. Don't eat out.

My favorite part is her saying she doesn't remember anything about the tip but just remembers that it was a difficult table.

Agreed - I usually round up regardless of tip to a flat dollar amount with zero cents. Heck I usually just tip 20%

Always round up or down to make it an even dollar amount. Write that amonut on my copy. Also always get the receipts from gas station, etc. Gove them to my wife. No clue if she checks them or not.

That's interesting. In Florida, Police can only make a PC arrest for a misdemeanor that was committed in the officer's presence.

It's ridiculous to arrest someone over $10.

This is a reason I always make sure to fill out the tip lines, especially at counter service places with them.

I tip well though so I have never had this problem.

I had the same waitress at a restaurant in ATL departing one Monday as I did that Thursday coming back through. She changed the tip by $2 both times.

I wonder how many hundreds of times she got away with people not noticing or caring about $2 until she did it to the same person twice in one week.

I mean, she is in the wrong, deserves to be fired, go on probation and all. I don't see a felony in this though. Damn.

I was thinking that too. Especially for lunches. They usually pre-auth the pre-tip amount and then clear with the tipped amount later. I don't really pay much attention to the smaller charges.

I look for doubles and charges about $100

I always tip cash and write "cash" in the tip line.

The wait staff usually prefers it and it helps me keep track of my card balances easier.

She didn't get arrested over $10. She was arrested for committing credit card fraud. They take that shite seriously.

She'd have been better off just stealing the $10 out of the till.

I highly doubt this is the actual law.

They should be arrested over $0.01, a pos thief is a POS theif. I highly doubt she was arrested over this one instance, most likely this was the only complaint.
