Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:

- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.

I like NZ.
When you're done, you get up, walk to the counter, pay, and leave.
Card never leaves your sight. No timing issues. No tipping.
I know right? They even get paid a 'proper' wage regardless of how busy the restaurant is.
In the US we have a wide variety of ways to pay. Some have the waiter process it, which can be slow as dirt. Some have a little electronic thing at the table you can pay and go, like Red Robin. Some you walk up to a counter and pay when you want, like at a couple of local Mexican restaurants. Some you pay when you arrive and order, like Jason's Deli.
These are all in a city of about 125,000 people in a central US state and within a three mile stretch of road.
In Brazil they bring the POS to your table. You pay with your card and leave. I like this here too
Italy as well, and i assume many other places in the world outside of north america
