Today, I was waitressing for a huge family. Their bill was $750. Excited about the tip, I was shocked to see only $0.50. As they were leaving, I threw the two whole quarters at their heads. Guess who also got fired today. FML

they probably should've left a better tip, but at the same time you can't throw quarters at a customers head and not expect to be fired.

For them to leave only 50 cents it was clearly as an insult to the waitress imo.

Wiat who said they were poor? Either way its not smart to throw things at customers. I would kill to just have any job.

I would have come close to slashing their tires for that. Getting fired was totally worth it.

i bet it was worth it.... would love habe seen the bastards face when the realized you thru your tip at them.

Move to Australia. I got paid $20p/h to waitress. Then you'll have nothing to bitch about.

Downvote me all you want, but I totally understand where OP is coming from. Customer service is such a thankless job, and after a while it usually leaves me screaming bloody murder when I get home. It was probably a bad idea to throw the quarters, but I would've felt just as pissed, especially if the customers were huge pricks, and they usually are.

That's odd. Isn't gratuity added on to a check automatically for large parties?

186 - You really think its so easy? try running my ten table section without messing anything up. you'd fail miserably. just like any other job, it takes skill and a lot of it if you're good. you'd rather tip the chef who gets paid 10 times as much as the server who made sure everything was perfect? go kill yourself.

Shut the **** up. I've been a waitress, it's not that hard. It's a mindless job for anyone with half a brain. And, really? Telling someone to kill themselves because you're a lazy asshole who thinks you should be praised for bringing people food?
