>"They offered to help pay bond money and offered to give me the $50 bill, and any support I needed, but I didn't want it,

They were likely afraid of getting sued but still, that's a good pre-emptive move

"our employees assaulted you and robbed you of this 50 bucks you found on the floor. Now that it became news, how about we let you have that 50 bucks and you dont sue?"

Jeez most people refuse to admit wrongs. They're trying to do the right thing in the moment. Give them that at least. What else can they do? Be like others and admit no wrong and wait for the lawsuit that's inevitable regardless? These are horrible idiotic employees. A company stepped up immediately. It's so rare and refreshing IMNSHO.

Yea, it's not like that company had a pro assaulting customers policy that they are backing down from and apologizing. They did the right thing about as soon as they reasonably could.

Cause its an empty gesture hoping to capitalise on people getting the exact reaction youre having without having to actually compensate as just the gesture gets praise. In a way this can be taken as even more slimy.

You have literally no idea whether it is an empty gesture or a heartfelt sentiment. None. The owners were not there when it happened and did the right thing as soon as it was possible. It could be entirely performative. BUT YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

LUL its absolutely performative when its that little. It literally cant be anything but an empty gesture even if it were intended as a "heartfelt sentiment"
