This is the worst thing... he didn't tip either

I used to work in IT. I'm sure he thought he selected the "no tip" option. But someone accidentally held their finger on the "4" key and most of these systems only allow input from the customer-facing side.

But then you might consider why the two checks the Starbucks sent out to cover the error 'bounced' 🤷‍♀️

Edit: so who's side was the "sticky 4 key" from

Most of these POS systems with these tip options are shady. Some you aren't even presented with a no tip option up front and have to select other options to give no tip. If I have to I'll start carrying cash again so I don't have to deal with this crap.
