Today, I was working in a restaurant. On the receipt under "tip" someone actually took the time to write out "$0.00." FML

Today, I found out that my new serving job does in fact take the time out to write a check for $0.00. FML

Today, I was waitering at the restaurant that I work at when I collected a credit card bill that was worth $120 and a big zero on the tip line. Angered, I turned to a co-worker and said "I knew this asshole wasn't going to tip me." The guy was standing right behind me with $30 in his hand. FML

Today, I was doing takeout orders at the restaurant I work at. I spent a long while putting together this guy's $135.00 order. When he finally got there to pick it up, I told him to fill out the credit card slip. I looked at it after he left. He gave me a 40 cent tip. FML

Today, I had a customer write "fuck you" in the tip option area on his credit card slip, I have no idea why. FML

Today, I ordered take out, and paid with a credit card. The cute cashier gave me the receipt to sign, and under 'tip' I gave a couple of dollars. I realized that I had given too much, crossed it out, and changed it. Unaware she was watching, She then responded, "Did you just lower the tip by $1?" FML

Today, while working at a chain restaurant, I forgot to charge someone a few dollars for extra toppings on the side. My stingy boss took the time to take that money out of my paycheck. FML
Misunderstood Waitress

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

Today, I'm a waitress. A customer came in and acted very kindly and even mentioned how I was such a help to her. She also mentioned leaving a nice tip. The tip? A fake $20. Thanks. FML

Today, after starting my new career as a server, two women were kind enough to leave a $5 tip… while still owing $6.84 on their bill. FML

People only do that when they want you to know they aren't tipping you because you did a crappy job.

I know of a waitress where I recently ate that the very thing happened to, and they took the time to write "Merry Christmas" at the top, too. The waitress was a d*mn good one and I'll definitely go back just because of her!!

I don't understand why people are automatically assuming that the serve did a crappy job. I was a server for 6 years and some people would tip me 20$ while others would leave nothing. Some people really are jerks and don't tip just to be mean while others may not have money to tip. Op, if this is the case then I'm sorry. If you really did do a crappy job then ydi. I know that tips are not mandatory but with the wages that servers make hourly, they really depend on their tips and it sucks when you work your ass off for a low tip or nothing at all.

I've written 0.00 as a tip for two reasons... 1 service sucked and 2 I left a cash tip on the table. and to the person at the yogurt store, tips shouldn't be expected at a "fast food" establishment

Exactly #1, YDI but obviously you gave bad service and they wanted to make it obvious. If it was just blank you could have though they forgot. Now you just know you suck :)

When we get unusually bad service we leave a one cent tip. That way the waitress or waiter should know that the service wasn't worth two cents.

why would you expect a tip at a yogurt place?

YDI for giving crap service.
