So, Family Feud had a survey asking something like,"Name something a Waiter or Waitress hates about their jobs." I personally thought,"Dine and Dash HAS to be number one! Nope, not only was Dine and Dash NOT number one, it wasn't even in the survey!
Bad tippers was number one, rude customers was number two, low pay was number three, being stressed out was number four, being on feet all day was number five. I can't believe Dine and Dash didn't make the survey!

Dine and Dash probably doesn't happen that often

I've never seen anybody dine and dash. But hopefully they don't make the wait persons pay for those meals? I've seen shoplifters before. I once saw a young woman trying to steal a winter coat and she got caught. I once saw an old woman stealing a jar of pickles but I didn't stick around to see if she got caught. Maybe she just wanted to keep the pickles inside her coat until she got up to the register?

About dine and dashes, I remember a dine and dasher saying something like,"I dined and dashed at Red Lobster because I wanted to screw over Red Lobster, a Restaurant chain that is VERY wealthy already. I was laughing on the way home and for a little while after I got home. But then the awful realization got me. I didn't screw over the wealthy Red Lobster, I screwed over a hard working human being who was an excellent Waiter and didn't deserve for me to screw him over. I could cost him his job for something he didn't deserve. I felt like scummy crap and went back to Red Lobster and paid my bill and gave a huge tip. " Another dine and dasher who KNEW better and STILL did it said something like,"I went to Outback Steakhouse and dined and dashed. I am a Waiter for Olive Garden. I felt like a hypocrite, dining and dashing, knowing that I am a Waiter myself and know firsthand just how awful dining and dashing really is." He should feel awful, doing something he'd hate to have done to him at his own job!

They have new dine and dash types. Type 1, Customer orders a lot of food and drinks to their house using a credit card. After enjoying the food and drinks, they falsely claim to their Bank they never got the food and drinks and do a chargeback. Restaurant is out the money. An EXTREME version of this happened in like early 2021 where a LOT of people were still in lockdown. A Customer ordered about $700 worth of food and drinks. Restaurant delivered it to the house, Customer received it, and then like a couple of hours later, Customer falsely claimed to their Bank that they never received the food and got the $700 credited to their credit card!
My God! ![]() The Restaurant Owner was on the news talking about how this lie the Customer did seriously damaged her finances and she had to close her Restaurant over the $700 theft. Loyal Customers felt bad for her and did a GoFundMe to help her out, but were furious that she used the GoFundMe to pay her personal needs and not for the RESTAURANT. ![]() The second type of new Dine and Dash is VERY similar to the first one, except Customer does NOT lie to the Bank, they lie to Door Dash(No pun intended with the Dash part. ) So, Customer orders food and drinks through Door Dash. Dasher(Delivery Driver for Door Dash ) hands them their food and drinks. Customer eats and drinks. Customer then lies to Door Dash and says they never received their food and drinks and they want a refund to their Bank card. A couple of times, the Dasher gets out their phone and goes to the Customers house or job and confronts and records the lying Customer and gets them to admit they received the food and drinks and then lied about never receiving the food and drinks all on camera.
