There aren’t many good reasons to ghost someone but you do bring up a good one.
So he’s a shitty friend with a really low price.
You do this to me once, shame on you. You do this to me twice, I’m on to you douchebag and I won’t bring it up but I’ll avoid situations where I pay for you or I’ll just tell you it cost £2 more than it does.
I always throw an extra buck onto whatever I owe someone - try this instead. It will make them smile and its a sign of appreciation for covering my cost even if only momentarily. I’ve found that when I’m paying for multiple people and then trying to collect up, it’s not uncommon to get screwed over a bit or not have a fee or a tip or something covered. Be the guy that goes out of the way to show some appreciation. I’ve probably lost $100 over the past 5 years doing this, but I have enough issues to feel douchy about. I don’t need something else.
All fair points
This guy is a parody account in case you didn’t know btw
When somene pays for me, I dont quibble about splitting it even. I use it as a bench mark, but I assume somsone else wont pay.
Also I know theres times I’ve screwed up and didn’t give the fair amount (moatly due to not thinking or being aware of costs), so I try to bump it up and do a bit extra from now on.
This guy definitely fucks
…his “friends” over.
They obviously do not have any German friends
Am German, can confirm that I am not friends with this person.
I absolutely call out inaccuracies like this.
Am I German? 👀
You might be. Germans will sometimes fight over cents for the sake of principle.
Not anymore
few people know this but there is actually quite a lot of money to be made from scamming your friends
There’s an entire MLM industry built upon it!
Friends? I prefer the term ‘rubes’
That moment when you Capitalism your social group.
In the US Air Force they use US currency at all overseas facilities and shops on the base. But they don’t ship pennies because it’s not worth the cost, so they round up or down to the nearest 5. I worked with a guy who was so cheap that when it would round down he would pay with cash and when it would round up he would write a check (this was before debit cards, yes I’m that old).
5c is our smallest coin in Australia so all transactions work this way.
If I have to use up some cash at a self serve machine but I don’t have enough to cover the whole thing, when I do the debit card portion of my split payment I make sure to leave 2c extra.
So if it’s $12 and I have to use up a $5 note I’ll split pay $6.98 on my debit, the machine will ask for the other $5.02 and will round down when I put in the $5 note.
No I don’t actually care about the 2c but I’m having to type in a split pay number regardless so figure why not.
That’s how it works everywhere here. But no one uses cash and all use card/contactless.
I’m getting Ass Pennies energy
wow, that’s just awful
Don’t worry, it is a joke account.
Jokes are meant to be funny.
Part of the joke is that he posts this kind of stuff on LinkedIn to make fun of ‘grindset’ douchebags
Oh welp, turns out an entire classification is based on on a randos personal preference! You learn new things every day…
I mean, it was absurd enough to be funny for me. So maybe it just isn’t funny to you?
God I feel like some people really are like this and wonder why they don’t have any friends who are actually decent people.
Is Ken Cheng the new Ken M?
He’s the Ken M of linked in
Save some pence for the rest of us, bezos.
Sounds like a cover story for someone with dyslexia tbh
Dyslexia doesnt exist
It was just a cover so people can steal fractions of dollars from other people “by accident”
Ah yes, crabs in a bucket, doing yet another of the capitalist’s jobs for them… 🙄
I think he’s joking
