It prevents all the other people after them from ordering food. Worse, they can order food, but it will never arrive, leading to annoyed customers and bad reviews.

It creates unnecessary waste.

Both costs the owner money.

    Makes some sense, I would assume just a receipt isn't the only way to track orders like this (it gets fed to other systems too, again from my experience working in a role like this) I can't imagine the impact is more then a slight annoyance unless you have a really old system.

    Also restaurant owners suck, massively underpay their workers and treat them like they're disposable, I think they can take the 3 cent hit this amount of receipt paper actually took.

    I’m sorry, but to me this is a Bobby Tables issue. The POS devs need to write some sort of sanity checks on customer provided inputs.

    Can’t blame a customer for finding issues in shit software.

    First, the question was

    How does this negatively impact you

    Second, just because you can find a flaw in software, you are not obliged to abuse it. Neither is it right to abuse it. If someone finds that a nuclear reactor has a security issue, the guy blowing it up is still a fucking piece of shit.

    Yes, continue championing the owner class. They really need your support right now.
