Give me, but don't give me

I went to pay for the food and noticed two signs.

“We don’t accept cash, please use card.”

I then noticed a jar with cash that read:

“Tips power us.”

I see two different signals — “please don’t give us cash” and “please give us cash”.

I asked the person behind the cash register why don’t accept cash for payment. The person said they prefer card because it’s safer than handling cash.

— then why risk the tip jar?
