Tipping is essential for employees in the service industry, such as servers, bartenders, hair stylists, and others, to make up for their meager pay. Restaurant staff rely on tips and it is a way for customers to express their gratitude and appreciation for excellent service.

The word "tipping" dates back to hundreds of years ago, when English explorers brought the custom to colonies in North America. Even though it's common knowledge that paying waiters and bartenders is expected after dining out or receiving service at a bar, many people are still unaware of the significance of tipping.

The OP of today's story has a tipping story to share, and this happened to their friend who works as a server. There's this one guy who always comes into the restaurant.

He's usually pretty quiet and never tips too well. Most of the time, he comes with a couple of friends or by himself and sits at the bar and watches a sports game.

He came in one time with a date, and she had never seen the woman before, so she assumed they were new to dating. After serving them, the OP waited until they left to go grab the hundred-dollar bill the guy dropped as a tip.

Well, when the OP unfolded it, it was one of the fake $100 bills. That means this guy planned this out to impress this woman, so the OP waited to get her revenge.

OP writes

A customer that is usually quiet and and never tips too well

Throwing the fake $100 back on the table in front of that woman

One can only assume that the guy didn’t want to tip on his card

And the comments roll in...

Lost the job but it was worth it

His character is garbage

The OP added this in the comments section

I guess anything to try and impress a woman, which doesn’t even work 99% of the time, just makes people look douchey. Not that I’d ever do that but if I did you wouldn’t be able to bring me back to that restaurant even if you offered me a million dollars. Some people don’t feel shame.

In public, it can be funny, when you’re doing it to a server it is scummy, they work really hard and actually do appreciate big tips, it makes them feel like they did a great job as my friend expressed in this story.

The kid was excited

The poor woman got a favor

Not in the car cup holder

Good on the friend and manager

From someone who served at a diner

Tipping has become more significant for those who accept service-related occupations in a world where employment opportunities are always expanding and pay potential is frequently low. Not only is leaving a tip a token of appreciation for excellent service, but it's also the best method to guarantee that you'll receive excellent service in return.

Some Redditors say that if you want to know how someone will act in a long-term relationship, pay attention to how they treat servers in restaurants.
