Yeah, I always ask for a receipt at counter service/fast food eateries. Half the time, even though I only order like 2 items (3 at the very maximum if I’m feeling chippy), the order is inevitably missing something or incorrect so I like to have it as proof when I tell them I’m missing my drink order or something.
I don’t know how people fly by the seat of their pants and just let places like Taco Bell or Dunkin Donuts just give them random items without proof of what you ordered lol. Maybe I’m just unlucky!
Or yeah, if I think I might have to return an item, I don’t want a receipt.
those people aren’t flying by the seat of their pants. they just live in harmony with those around them. they don’t feel the need to cause trouble because some thing happens.
How is it causing trouble to say “excuse me, I had a latte with my order. Thanks!!”??? I’m polite about it and I wait ample time to make sure they truly forgot and aren’t just behind. Hell, usually I’m actually approached by one of the employees when I’m just standing there waiting for a prolonged period of time, not the other way around.
But I only order 2 things. When I’m missing one of the only two items I paid for, I have a tendency to speak up. It doesn’t make me an asshole. Believe it or not, there are polite ways you can indicate that you are missing half your order.
I actually don’t correct them if they give me 2 incorrect items, so long as they are in the same category of what I wanted (a food and a drink item)…happens frequently. It’s when I’m missing a category of item that I ask for it.

Otherwise, 90% of the time, I don’t want one.
