Saw this at a fast food place today. Stopped in to get a burger for lunch.
While I was filling my drink, I overheard the following exhange:
SC: I'd like to get a cup, please.
Cashier (C): OK, that will be $x.xx.
SC: Oh, I don't want to get a soda. I just want some water.
C: OK. But I still have to charge you for the cup, sir.
SC: Why? I just want some water [cue whiney voice]
C: I know. But when I give you that cup for free, and then you go fill it with soda and leave, then that will mean my job. So, that will be $x.xx
SC paid up.
