Yeah, there was a guy who left another comment telling me that nobody would spit in my food because "I don't matter" or some other edge-lord nonsense. The same reasoning can be used to justify any kind of mistreatment or revenge a person could want. People are brave when they think there are no consequences, like when they're cutting people off in traffic, carving their name into ancient trees, or putting a burger together in the back of the kitchen. I'm just going to choose not to participate in their nonsense, because its far more peaceful this way.
I think the person you were responding to was being a bit facetious.
Additionally, the comment saying you don't matter has a bit more nuance than that. You literally do not matter enough to some minimum wage fast food worker to "get revenge on." They're just going to remake your food. Even if you were trying to dupe them somehow, the regular workers literally do not care. They aren't paid enough to. The manager is the only one who might give a shit and they certainly aren't going to be spitting in your food.
