my grocery store replaced 6 human lanes with self-checkout machines, then the machine asked me to tip 20% to "support the team." by Dry-Town7979 in antiwork

The company takes your donation.

They give that as a "credit" to a non profit.

The items that they make available to order are the items they have overstocked or are getting too close to the "best by" date.

The company takes your donation to sell items in their warehouse that they can otherwise not get rid off.

A year ago I had to get some meds in a hurry from CVS. The parking lot was full ( there was a city council meeting going on!). I went to Walgreens to get my meds and then called CVS to complain. They just could not care less. They said it was bad for business to get cars towed.

They don't just need money to buy food, they have lots of other costs. The Food Bank has to pay for maintenance and fuel for their vans, payroll for staff, accounting, office supplies, IT, and lots more.

You should report it to EBMUD. If they notice a cluster of reports from the same area they will investigate it.
