[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to brunch with a large group. They didn't ask for separate checks, just passed the little black book with the bill around the table after the meal and everyone put in cash.

I was one of the last people to contribute, and I noticed there was already more than enough cash in the book to cover the meal and a decent tip. But I still put in my share, including tip, as did the guy next to me.

Then I watched as the last guy in the group -- known for being a cheapskate -- counted the cash in the book, TOOK several bills out and put them in his pocket, closed the book and set it on the table.

Not only did he not contribute, he actually stole money from the group -- and possibly the server. Unbelievable. I never went out to eat with him again.[/quote]

Why don’t you call him out then and there? Instead of seething and raising it online years later?[/quote]

I was 20. It was a work thing. I was an admin and he was a senior manager. I barely knew him, but I had heard people call him cheap.

Seriously -- "seething"? I was disgusted. But I was in no position to call him out. Possibly a situation OP's DC might encounter.

What's the point of this thread if we're not supposed to share stories???[/quote]

OP here- yes this is a great story among many here that I'm going to tell her about. Sometimes the richest and most powerful are the cheapest. What an utter cheapskate. But I'm sure people in his life know and can't stand him.[/quote]
