So you carefully included every possible level of US government, but still forgot about the entire rest of the world.
First, many places have a local, state, and national government. Particularly the ones that use dollars and expect an additional tip, as shown on the receipt.
Stop trying to be offended at everything.
My country, which has dollars and expects tips, doesn't. And this read like it was addressing unexpected fees at restaurants in general.
Stop pretending Americans don't do this constantly. Everyone who's not American is very familiar with it, and honestly it's understandable with how big and self-contained that country is. I might not even have commented if it wasn't for the remarkable thoroughness short of that detail.
I presume you're in Canada. Aside from calling them provinces, and possibly having a different name for your legislative representatives, are you saying you DON'T have a local, state, and national government where my advice would be relevant?
No, you're advice was great. I just found the phrasing weird enough to point out. Sorry if it came across as angry.
The rest of the world doesn't exist, it's just a scam made up by the passport cartel to fleece you of your money every few years.
Can confirm, I'm just standing in a blank white space. It's weird I get wifi.
Do a search for the Tianamen Square massacre. You'll at least know if you're Chinese white space or non Chinese white space
Oh no, it's turning black. Chairman forgive me!
Let's see... dollar sign? Well that cuts out a lot of the world. Written in English, so that leaves about 3 countries. Australia doesn't have a tipping culture the same way we do in North America so that leaves either Canada or the US, in which case you can replace state with province and cover your bases.
Percentages on the tip are lower than US tip amounts. So I would guess not US, though this would obviously happen in the states.
Do other countries itemize tax separately? I thought the US was alone on that.
Also, 9.5% is in line with sales tax in a few US states, as is calling it tax instead of VAT (or similar)
Idunno. don't remember what they do in Canada.
Good catch, I didn't even notice the percentages. I did look at the date but of course the meal was purchased on the one day this month where that's not helpful
Don't forget New Zealand. They do tip down under, but it sounds like they don't recommend tips the same way.
Yeah, sure, the jist applies everywhere. OP could have saved words just saying "representitives". That's the part that was interesting, and now people are big butthurt I pointed it out.
I mentioned all 3 because people (at least around me) tend to forget the first 2, despite those being much easier to make these types of changes.
Looks at a picture of a receipt that is almost certainly from the US:
What about the rest of the world?!
It looks exactly like a receipt that could be here, too. As has been repeatedly pointed out to me, there's only 2 to 4 countries this could apply to, but you'll excuse me for expecting the same thing as always was happening.
