Working in the food industry can be bad enough on a normal day, but add nightmare customers and stingy tippers and it can become downright torturous. This server had to deal with both recently.
Samantha Heaton, a server at Buffalo Wild Wings, had finished waiting on customers at an Illinois location when she went to collect their receipt. The “tip” that the customers left was not the one she expected, and it’s going viral for an infuriating reason.
Keep reading to hear the whole story and to see how the Internet has rallied around her.
The note says “Can’t tip someone who doesn’t love Jesus! Bad tattoo.”
The judgmental note is accompanied by a big fat zero in the tip line. So not cool.
The post has blown up, and the response to the slight has been truly amazing.
The equals sign represents the support of equal rights for members of the LGBTQ community.
The insinuation that someone they know nothing about doesn’t “love Jesus” simply because they support equal rights is insanity.
But the supportive comments far outweighed the negative ones.
Emily posted Samantha’s Twitter handle on the original thread so users can message her directly.
The generous nature of strangers can be seriously heart-warming.
Although some were quick to call the post a money-making scam.
She states several times that it was posted to create awareness, and any money raised would be donated to a good cause.
Jesus would definitely tip his waitress.
