Rich Jerk Tips 1% and Advises Server to ‘Get a Real Job’ via - Eater

I think I would literally snap if this happened to me at work. I think I would black out and wake up in the back of a police car covered in blood.

Serving IS a real job. It’s not a great career for most people, but it’s a job. I pay my bills every month from waiting tables. I’m supporting myself solely from what I make as a waitress while figuring out what I want to do with my life and working for free as C.O.O of a start-up. I know tons of people who support families on the income they make from serving.

I sincerely hope this is a hoax, because this is just appalling. Servers in every state besides Oregon and Washington are paid sub-wages - LESS than minimum wage. Basically nothing after taxes. Tip your servers and tip them well, because that’s all they get paid. You’re welcome to eat at home if you don’t like it.

This horrifies me.

Even when I was making very little, I always made a point of tipping well above the ‘usual’.

Why?

Because I’ve had those jobs. Food service, housekeeping..

The kind of jobs that never pay well, are stressful & often demoralizing. The jobs where other people treat you as if you were sub-human.

My only comfort here is knowing that Karma can be a beautiful thing.

I was a server for awhile. It was a good job and I liked it, but dealing with people in this kind of setting was an all day thing for me. It’s atrocious the way some like to act when going to a restaurant. It’s a hard job, not simple at all. It isn’t just take you’re order, put in order, and bring to customer. There’s about 15 different things you have to do while waiting on several different tables. Serving is a tough job, so respect your waitress. Please tip well :)

I’m not one to threaten physical violence, but I think chemical castration is called for in this case.
