Today, some guy walked into the restaurant I work at and ordered enough food to serve the entire National Guard of Texas. He thanked us by leaving a $0.50 tip and shitting on the bathroom floor. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was working in a restaurant. On the receipt under "tip" someone actually took the time to write out "$0.00." FML
Today, at my job as a waiter I sharted myself while taking an order. They tipped me $20 and wrote "for new underwear" on the receipt. 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, while at the restaurant I work at, a bunch of kids came in. They all gave incredibly complex orders, laughed at everything I did, and made a huge mess by "spilling" hot sauce and water all over the floor. After they left, I was tipped eleven cents. 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 was taking a table's order. After I finished, the guy told me, "Just FYI, I'm not a tipper." Trying to lighten up the situation, I replied, "It's amazing how many people forget I handle their food." He complained to the manager that I'd threatened him. FML
Today, while working at my truck stop, I helped a trucker check his tires. He seemed like a pretty nice guy, and we chatted for a bit. After he took off and I walked back inside, I went to clean the shower he was in before. Turns out he took a shit on the floor. His wife had been in there with him. FML
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, while at my shitty, minimum wage job at McDonalds, a guy walked out of the bathroom. He said "Good luck in there." worriedly, then left. I don't know if it was his handiwork, but it looked like a shit grenade had detonated. It was even on the walls. FML
Today, while at work, a customer gave me a $20 tip. I explained to him we aren't allowed to accept tips, but he insisted. When I called the manager to report it, he pocketed my tip. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Looks like that's the perfect time to slip out on your break or lunch.

That's an awkward experience, I certainly hope this isn't a normal occurrence where you work. I hope you get better tips and customers in the future

I don't get it. Why we are supposed to tip at the restaurants? You work and receive a monthly pay. Is the mailman, the hairdresser, the baker receiving a tip?

It's generous to tip at restaurants because it helps the Waiters & waitresses out a lot. & yes, I tip my hair dresser too.

they make most of their money off of tips. it's polite to tip them when they're serving you. I tip my hairdresser and my manicurist and if I have some change I put it in the tip jar at small businesses. it's courteous.

I've heard that some restaurants and bars set their wages so that the tips fill out the salary to at least minimum wage; and pay out to minimum wage if someone doesn't make enough in tips. I don't know if that in particular is true (I will Google it later); but I do know that tipping is customary of good service, at least in the U.S. Besides that, we're in tough times and minimum wage is difficult to survive on. Not only does tipping help in a monetary sense, but a small act of generosity can really make someone's day. Tipping just makes the world a slightly less shitty place. Then again, so does not ******** on the floor of a public establishment.

I see from your profile that you are from Romania - things are different regarding tips depending where you are from. In the USA wait staff is paid very little fixed pay and tipping around 20% is expected. In western Europe (where I come from) fixed pay is considerably higher and around 10% tip is considered polite though not exactly necessary. I don't know what tipping manners are common in eastern Europe though, so maybe where you come from tipping isn't considered necessary.

In America you tip because they don't pay their staff enough.

when I was a waiter I was paid $4 an hour. with minimum wage at $7.25 I had to make up the difference in tips. Anyone who couldn't make the difference in tips and had the restaurant pay the rest was viewed as a bad waiter/waitress by management and not given any hours after that, thus firing them without actually firing them.

If he ever comes back, let him in & be sure to shit in his food.

who honestly runs those ideas through their head and says "yes. despite how obviously absurd this is, i am going to shit on this floor." sorry that happened to you op.
bahamit 18
Sorry op, gotta wonder what goes through people's minds... Gee these people cook my food, perhaps I should shit on their floor, there is no way this could bite me in the ass in the future...

Tell the management. No pun intended but that's a really shitty situation for you OP
