A Reddit post went viral after sharing a photo of a restaurant notice urging customers to report any waiter or bartender using a phone during work hours to a manager. In exchange, the customer would receive a generous 25% discount on their bill.
The Internet raised concerns about potential abuse and the impact on restaurant staff. The ad quickly gained traction on social media platforms.
Many patrons expressed support for the policy, arguing that it promotes better customer service and ensures staff members remain attentive to diners’ needs.
The notice generated a lot of criticism on the Internet.

The announcement drew criticism from skeptics who questioned its viability and potential for abuse. One Reddit user noted: “What’s stopping customers from making false accusations just to get a discount? It seems like it could create a hostile work environment and undermine trust between staff and management.”
Others expressed concern about the privacy implications of encouraging customers to monitor and report the behavior of restaurant employees. Amid the debate, some users took a more light-hearted approach and suggested ways to exploit the system for personal gain. One user humorously commented: “That day I walked around with my phone and made that owner/manager lose a lot of money. Then I left him.”
Many people suggested fun ways to get back into directing.
Another suggested a strategy where waiters deliberately flaunt their phones to activate multiple discounts, which could result in significant losses for the restaurant.
Additionally, a clever suggestion emerged that proposed a strategy for servers to exploit the policy to their advantage. The idea involved openly using phones in front of customers, announcing the discount offer, and rotating responsibility among staff members to ensure broad participation.
As the debate continues to unfold online, it highlights broader questions about workplace policies, customer engagement, and the evolving dynamics between companies and their customers.
