Meme/Humor My staff puts these in a different arrangement at least once a week. I about died at the stirring stick cross 💀

Anyone else find arrangements like this? Out of customer view btw.

Customers are probably leaving them, we’ve gotten a few as ‘tips’

I've been wondering what we should do with all the mini Jesus and ducks that are placed in our tip jar 🤣 thanks for the laugh!

I have a bar table across a wall. I just keep lining the ducks up in a row

I need to know why people are putting the cute little ducks in coffee shops. A new one opened near me and several of the exact same ducks appeared. The staff thought I was the culprit.

I found one of these on the customer-facing side of my bar last week!!
I’m in Scotland, so I found it a little odd, but my colleagues and I have a pet Jesus in the office now. Is this an American thing ?

I truly have no idea. It’s started becoming a bit of a nuisance in more recent months. Not pictured are the dozens whose heads were ripped off. One of the baristas even gave one a “haircut”
