Customer tries to use employee’s tip jar to pay for her order, refuses to leave and starts hassling other shoppers for handouts: ‘I have to follow the law. It doesn't matter if you're a Hollywood actor, a politician, [or] someone without housing’

In the wild world of dispensary retail, where the only thing more heavily regulated than the product is the patience of the employees, there's always someone convinced that the rules are just a suggestion and the tip money is up for grabs.
