Misunderstandings can happen to anyone, and they often lead to the funniestmishaps.
Although there are a few instances where things can take a serious turn.
Turns out, it was just tummy problems.
Otherwise, skipping out on the bill can affect a restaurants revenue because it wont match the kitchen inventory.
In some cases, owners might even cut workers salaries if a customer doesnt pay the bill.
Thats because dining and dashing can lead to pretty significant losses over time.
Thats exactly why many hotels and restaurants have systems in place to catch these petty crooks.
Just like the poster mentioned, they usually get the cops involved.
In many places,criminalscharged with dining and dashing spend up to 6 months in jail.
Some are made to pay hefty fines of up to $50,000.
Such penalties arent worth one free meal, thats for sure!
Restaurants arent the only places that get affected by people who want to run out on the bill.
Apparently, bars are also at risk for such crimes.
Onebar ownermentioned that people take a stab at drink and dash up to 4 or 5 times a week!
Lucky for this establishment, the poster was definitely not trying to run out on the bill.
They were merely trying to outrun their poor bowels.
The poster said, I just thought it was funny and wanted to see other peoples reactions.
Its about what I expected.
It felt like something that would happen in a sitcom.
