Poll of the Day > 17 y/o NERDY Virginia Kid is BLASTED for Paying his $35 Bill in QUARTERS!!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

17 y/o Cohen Naulty from Virginia went out to lunch and paid for him and his friends at Beer 88 in Lynchburg..but he was MOCKED by the RESTAURANT after he paid in COINS and left a 30% tip in coins in which the restaurant publicly SHAMED him!!

They didn't expect to be publicly blasted over their bill as it totaled $35 and he left a $20 bill and a generous $10 tip but paid most of it in QUARTERS!!

The restaurant in turn posted a photo of the change with the caption "How NOT to pay at a resstaurant #nohometraining"

Cohen, a server himself ssaid he carried a lot of coinsbecause of his job at another restaurant and often got quarters as tips and used it to pay for his bill and had no idea he was gonna be mocked for his type of currency..and neither did the community as users hit back at them for being mean spirited and shaming a kid struggling to do a good deed.

Joshua Spence wrote "Not only did they pay, they left a 30% tip. The kid is a server at a another restaurant. He paid with his tip money. It spends just like anything else. Their 'apolgy' was alost as asinine as their original post. Even if it was a joke, you don't mock a customer to do so. 'ignorance"

Cohen said "It's just US currency. I'm allowed to use it. It's not illgal. i'm not doing anything wrong. They said we didn't have any home training. That was dirty. That was one of their hashtags"

The restaurant removed it from their FB and issued sort of an apology who said it was posted as a joke and should be taken as one They said "It was posted as a light hearted way of saying that osmething like this can be annoying to people that work in the restaurant/retail industry. In no way did we publicly shame ANYONE for paying OR tipping. We try to keep our page funny and relatable. And had no idea that this would be offensive to anyone"

Cohen's mom is coming to her son's defenseand said "If anybody met Cohen, they know it ocudln't be farthest thing from the truth. you know, he's a good kid"

The owner, Yao Liu is catching heat and is getting DEATH THREATS who says she has no control over their facebook group...

Cohen, who is now going under the monkitor "The Quarter Boy"is turning this into something positive by starting a fundraiser to help pay for other people's meals as he's asking people to scrape QUARTERS together and wants to find restaurants out there who don't mind being paid in quarters and treat someone to a free meal.

Brauburgers took the offer and said they will hold a special night where custoemrs who pay in change get a DISCOUNT and donate 20% to charity.

Do you think paying in Quarters for a $35 bill was stupid?

I mean, 30% is a good tip. And apparently, he's getting his tips in quarters. He probably assumes that's how most people pay tips, maybe...

I think it means like their parents didn't teach them manners o something, maybe...

Now I'm more confused.

Home Training is defined as lacking social etiquette.
Then in the examples they say "lacking Home Training". Which would mean they don't have a lacking of social etiquette.
Then the word lacking is itself a link and means "walking around with out a gun".

I mean, using what common sense I have, no home training most likely means lacking in manners. If you choose to believe otherwise, that is fine...

So #nohometraining means "no lack of social etiquette", right?

Do you think it was stupid of him to pay his $35 bill in Quarters?

No but it was inconsiderate. Still all that matters is you pay and ontop of that he actually left a tip. Businesses often welcome coins as they like to have them for change for the customers. I however don't like paying with a lot of change so just got coins changed for notes at the bank before spending at times. Still if the restaurant cared that much they could put up a sign or something saying they don't accept large amounts of coins. They won't though because money is money.

I can count quarters quickly. These people are just garden variety jerks. I'd understand if it was any denomination lower than quarters.
---

He looks like the kind of douche that would pay in quarters because he thinks he's being clever (why else would you take a picture of yourself with the bill and piles of quarters on the table?) That being said, money is money.

so roll up the quarters? even if they're loose, that's a measly three rolls with 20 loose, who cares. that would take like 2 minutes to roll...

(from the sound of it, the quarters are actually a part of a $10 tip, so it's not even a single full roll of quarters, who the hell cares)

Ooooh dear god that reminds me of when I was like 7 or something and I payed for an icecream from an icecream truck in pennys..... and there were other kids waiting for him to finish counting.

Whhhyyyyy did I do that I bet he still hates me to this day.

I don't remember Ice Cream from Ice Cream trucks being expensive. It probably wasn't that bad...

Man if ever there was an opportunity to make some quick cash

Post up outside this restaurant with $1000 worth of quarters. Explain/hand out this Facebook post to everyone that enters, offer to sell them quarters equaling their bill for a small fee of $5, profit and then profit again with news interviews
---

I agree that it was a dumb thing to do, but publicly shaming him about it was completely uncalled for.

This is pretty suspect.

If it were me, i'd just deal with the coins. there are a lot of quarters there but nothing too extreme.

People who plunk down a sack of pennies and expect to be able to pay with them...they can get fucked. There is also not law saying a business must take any form of US currency, or US currency at all, so this restaurant could have told him to get fucked wit his change and they'd be in the right

However I feel they're being a little petty. But of course since I like coins and their value potential I'd take the quarters no problem.

I guess they could have told him no. But then, they either wouldn't get the full bill paid. Or they would probably not get a tip...

Which is why they should've shut the fuck up. Also free quarters for the register.

$33 in quarters takes a minute to count, tops. This is a complete non-issue and the restaurant is being dickish for even whining about this in the first place.

This is true. Though, it was less than that in quarters. He also use a $20 bill.

You know, I love when people pay with change.

Theres a chance you could get something neat like a silver dime or quarter or something super old. The people who spend change sometimes dont know anything about it.

if i was this dude at a restaurant id be checking for any possible silver quarters, then throw em in my jar at home.

but i can see why people are annoyed but rather than be annoyed learning about currency and its value(numismatically) could possibly change your view on it. If somebody wanted to buy a car at my theoretical auto dealership in pennies I'd likely do it to see if I get handed any good ones. a 20,000 dollar car is 800 boxes worth of pennies. That is two million pennies. I'd be i heaven though it wouldn't be an easy transaction or easy search.

just a little tangent there i guess.

Yeah this reaction is stupid and counting quarters isn't difficult. If it were all pennies or other assorted change that would be a dick move.
