Entitled diner left a $0 tip and a cryptic note for his waitress that made her do a double-take
'I'm not entitled to anyone's money...' she said.
A waitress (u/edwardcullenmarryme) served two guys in their 20s at a restaurant. While one tipped generously, the other left his phone number on the bill, leaving the girl baffled. She shared the story on Reddit on November 16, where viewers flocked to voice their opinions.
She said that the guys decided to split the bill. While one tipped enough for both of them, the other tipped zero but left his number on the bill. The guy, along with his number, wrote, "For your tip," publicly hitting on the waitress. "I am a girl, so I immediately thought he was just being creepy, but why would a guy leave his number without a tip?" the server asked. She was flabbergasted and wondered if that trick ever works on a server. "I would much rather text the one who tipped like 30% lol," she joked. The server confessed that she wasn't upset because the customer didn't leave a tip, but was pissed by how he thought leaving his number was compensation. "I'm not entitled to anyone's money; I just think a little generosity goes a long way in trying to get a lady to like you," she wrote.
Working in customer service is difficult. More often than not, it comes with everyday challenges, especially when some entitled people think it's their right to hit on them even when they're clearly not interested. In fact, a survey found that almost 80% of women and 70% of men have experienced some form of sexual harassment from co-workers, and nearly 80% of women and 55% of men experienced some form of sexual harassment from customers.
Meanwhile, reacting to the Reddit post, u/lakemichiganman suggested, "Call the guy and ask for his friend's phone number. You know, the guy who actually tipped. Just as classy as the guy leaving his number that stiffed you." u/moist_ad_3843 assumed, "They were doing an experiment, or one or both thought it would be funny to tip on one and leave a number on the other. Maybe it was a bet. Maybe one friend tricked the other. There are a lot of possibilities. I doubt they thought that leaving a 0 tip and a phone number will lead to you reaching out because no one is that dumb. If you were at all interested in them, then you should reach out. If not, then don't reach out."
u/donut_witch revealed, "I usually just give their number to a couple of different churches. They’ll be getting regular check-ins from the Church of Scientology for the rest of their life." u/quirky-wolf-5104 commented, "Love all the men on here thinking it’s ok to do this to someone just trying to do their job… We don’t want phone numbers; it’s creepy. You know nothing about me, and you think I’m cute, or my being nice warrants you giving me your phone number (fyi, servers are nice to you because they have to be and they want a tip). I’m literally at work… Stop it, and the note implying she’ll get her tip if she contacts him and does something for said tip… She already did her job for that tip; it’s gross behavior, and all you apologists are disgusting for suggesting otherwise…"
