I used to like Mitch. I still do, but I used to, too.
Luckily, they’re not bringing ink into this, only thermal paper!
The actual answer is for reimbursement, for example if you’re buying them for a work meeting or something.
Most receipts contain a time stamp. I could imagine a scenario where someone claimed Mitch (if he was still here) was involved in a crime and he could use the donut receipt as proof of innocence.
Let me file that under D… for Donut.
What the actual f-
uck is up with th-
e hyphenation?
Looks like tex formatting, they want each line to be the same width, so the badness value for hyphens must have been less than just using bigger spaces, which they also did
This explanation sounds very reasonable, and it makes me feel even more disgusted.
\documentclass[unholyhyphen]{donutreceipt}
Have you never read a single thing of print media ever? Books, newspapers, and magazines have been hyphenating words to keep uniform blocks of text for over 5 centuries
Yeah, but they do it correctly.

Travel expense reimbursement — though many companies have a “no receipt required if under $xyz” policy.
Man, I wish that was the case at places I worked at. My last company would give you stipends for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Try to spend that stipend at a convenience store because you don’t eat breakfast and just want some coffee and a snack for later? Screw you, we’re deducting from your paycheck for that.
I had a coworker who got caught on the wrong side of that policy. Since then, he’d always max out his stipend at every meal. Apps, desserts, etc. He’d get a second entree just to take back to his hotel as long as it wouldn’t put him over the limit.
He probably cost the company hundreds extra because they wouldn’t reimburse him for a bag of chips one time.
Malicious compliance is a form of art.
Do you remember a time where the receipt had the name of the store, the time and date of the purchase, an itemized list of what you bought, and the tax you paid and nothing else?
Nowadays there’s also a transaction id, a qr code, a coupon for your next purchase, a quote of the day, a novel, and some ads printed on there. My last order of french fries came with a piece of paper that is longer than my forearm. Ikea spits out half a metre of thermal paper when I order 2 hot dogs. Whyyyu?
What you guys doing over there? Ours are just itemised lists, payment method, and the transaction details etc. And usually a “how did we do” link.
So, they made the receipt longer?
I somehow hoped for donut recipes.
I miss not caring about my budget. I also don’t miss not caring about my budget.
I never take receipts for food because even if the food is awful, I’m not returning it. They might just serve it to someone else, and I don’t want to contribute to that.
Have you paid your yearly donut tax?
If I have a charge for 7 cents on my work CC and no receipt, I have to go through the seven layers of hell to beg for clemency.
I once spent over an hour trying to get a receipt for a refund that was higher than expected. (error in our companies favor)
You can buy donuts with you company card? Lucky
This person has never had to file an expense claim for meals that are paid by the employer.
Yes, it’s only a dollar or two. But it’s a dollar or two that my employer has to pay extra.
I once picked up one of those dirt cheap breakfast toasts from burger King. My expense report stated “Worst breakfast ever. Never again.”
