LOCATION: PENNSYLVANIA

I go to this coffee shop about 2-3 times a week as it is in a convenient location, however, the service is often poor with the workers ignoring me and having conversations with one another, messing up my order and not cleaning my table.

Even with this awful service, they often have a full-ish tip jar, so during my last few visits I’ve been taking small amounts of money from the tip jar as to punish their poor service as my google reviews and complaints seem to do nothing.

During my last visit, one of the worst workers in there noticed me taking money from it and told me that she would call the police on me and accused me of stealing tips in the past (They must have noticed it going down) So I left. The coffee shop is in too much of a useful location for me to stop going, but i’m afraid i’ll be trespassed or have the police called on me if I return.

Is this really illegal? The money isn’t owned by the shop as it’s not in the till and it’s not based on a transaction so I don’t see it as illegal, obviously it’s socially frowned upon but I’m doing it for a reason.

Advice would be greatly appreciated!

Told this girl I’m in a band but I also can’t sing, what’s the cheapest instrument I can learn to play in like a day or two. I have to impress her.

Imagine how much the youth would appreciate that, I could even do it myself. Or eminem could do it.
