    I can assure you that nobody working at the fast food restaurant gives a shit if you donate to charity.

      How can you assure me of that lol.

      You think nobody at a fast food place is capable of thinking someone is an asshole for declining to donate to charity? And then acting on that?

        I used to work fast food and retail, both which forced employees to ask customers to donate at the till. We hated doing it. It is awkward for both the customer and the worker. I would get anxiety when donation drive time of year would come round, and I’d feel relief when the customer either just said no or yes, and didn’t yell at me for asking. The cashier REALLY does not care if you donate or not. And the cashier usually does not make your food, it’s usually someone else doing the cooking, and the cooks aren’t paying attention at all to whether you donated or not.
