OMG, must share a story here (short version)
My ex and I were trying to determine child support. His daddy was a lawyer, so daddy's partner handled all his legal work for him free.
Bad waitress tricks 2285D.Currie At the one restaurant where we are regulars, I tip very well, but expect great service. If my son and I go there for lunch, and the bill is $10, I tip $2...
The court appointed a guardian-ad-litem in the case. She was to be paid by us, 60-40, which was the income split being used to determine child support. I was billed around $250 and paid it. He was billed around $320 or so, and resented the hell out of having to actually give any money to a lawyer (this was all a big game to him)
So, he went down to the bank and got approx $320 in change - nickels, dimes, and quarters. He puts it all in a couple trash bags and goes to the lawyers office. Proceeds to empty the trash bags on the secretary's desk, telling her its payment for his bill!!!!
Bad waitress tricks 2287The Ranger Not only do the restaurants I regularly frequent know me by name they also have my mailing...
They wouldn't take it, of course. They told him they WOULD accept rolled change for payment, but of course the secretary was NT about to count his $320 in loosew random change and write a receipt for him.
He got peeed and went ballistic. Ended up with criminal buttault charges against him. Did not win him any points with our child support jusge!
Folks, learn a lesson here. Change is fine if it's rolled into normed amounts. Not if it's loose and in a baggie. Did I mention that the ex is a MORON???
