The OP expresses that they can’t believe that this is a legal restaurant policy as there is no realistic expectation of what their sister could do in this situation.

They mention that they would quit, but their sister decided to stay because she just simply enjoys working there.

Many were quick to agree with the OP, enraged that this kind of expectation falls on the employees even though it isn’t their fault. Others explained what the restaurant did is completely illegal here in the U.S.

Reporting The Restaurant

One commenter explained that the OP’s sister needed to report this to the Department of Labor as wage theft, and another commenter explained that the sister should get a labor lawyer who could take the restaurant to court for wrongful termination if they tried to take the sister’s job for reporting them.

Luckily, a family saw OP’s sister crying after the event and offered to pay the bill for her, so she didn’t have to come off the money all by herself.

So-called dine-and-dashing is not as uncommon as many tend to think. Almost 5% of restaurant goers have dine-and-dashed at some point or another in their life.

Restaurant Policies

Many restaurants have policies in place for them in case something like this happens as a way to keep themselves and their business from losing money.
