If I’m paying for my goods and services with actual money, but using prop money for tips, is that bad? In my understanding, tips are given of one’s own free will and would be considered a gift to the recipient, the same as if I gave flowers or cookies as a tip. I’ve also seen fake money passed off by religious people that looks fully real on one side, and has church propaganda on the other side.
This is a hypothetical question that came up when assembling a gag gift for my kid from my parent. I don’t plan on doing it (though, there are some instances where it’d be VERY tempting…), but it does make me curious.
Collection plate? As in a church? That’s fine, they’re predatory institutions anyway.
Tip jar? Massively douchey, just don’t tip at all if you’re going to do that.
Beggers? Yes (it’s unethical).
Strip clubs? Yes (it’s unethical).
Especially if you want beat up in the parking lot. If you don’t want that that I wouldn’t suggest trying to finesse strippers.
If you don’t have money to spend at a strip club don’t go to a strip club.
Wait, are you saying yes it’s unethical to give fake money to beggars and strippers, or yes, it’s ok to give them fake money?
Cuz…it’s really not ok to give either of them fake money.
Yes it’s unethical.
In hindsight I probably shouldn’t have gone with yes as in do for one part and yes as in don’t for the rest for the rest of my comment.
TBH ‘Yes (it’s unethical)’ still seems ambiguous to me. I interpreted the ‘it’ as referring to the previous nouns - beggers and strip clubs - and thought you meant it’s ok because beggers and strip club workers are unethical.
