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

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

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 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 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, 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, a customer tried to pay for a $1.55 cup of coffee with a gift card, but he came up a dollar short. He let another customer through while he fumbled in his pocket for money. I later noticed a dollar had disappeared from my tip jar. FML

Today, at work, a customer asked for my number. When I declined, he made a huge scene, shouting and scaring other customers. He tipped me seven cents. FML

Today, I was finally paid back by a friend who wrote a check out. Not really looking at it, I went to the bank to deposit it. As I handed it to the teller, I noticed that he had written "sex" in the "for" memo. 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

Today, a customer's credit card was declined. His totally reasonable reaction was to threaten to put a bullet in the back of my head. FML

Today, a customer handed me a 100 dollar bill. He then told me that it was my tip for doing a good job. He snatched it away just as I touched it, laughed, and said, "Just kidding." He then took his money and left the store. FML

That's when you tell him you aren't a prostitute.

Why is it so ******* difficult for some people to just have some good manners? If someone does you a service, you thank (and maybe even a tip) them. Ungrateful ness annoys me so much.

Yup. I got it after a quick "oh no" moment and a rapid google search on Canadian prostitution laws. Google is a friend of everyone.

In most provinces??

Prostitution isn't illegal everywhere. I guess it could still be offensive, though.

What if he offers (dr evil) one million dollars (/dr evil)?

35, you tried a little too hard. Unless if it's an obscure reference, you don't have to put parentheses and the name of what you're referencing every 5 words.

How do you know it was a "he"? *plot twist*

36, he was doing a "voice" not citing his reference.

While I agree, always tip. While they may not have done a great job, they still spent their time trying to get you good service. Unless of course, if the tip is included in the bill

When was Ness ungrateful? I'm pretty sure he was the guy leading the attack on Giygas.

Some people are just cheap and offended at the idea of tipping.

#4 Probably because of the fact that it is now expected. It used to mean someone was grateful. Now some places even include the tip in the bill.

He's just saying what those people say. They don't understand how waitressing or waiting works; they get paid less than minimum wage and are expected to make up the difference in tips.

That is the part where you 'accidentally' spill coffee on him.
Rallred32 20
No, the proper response to when someone says "**** YOU" is to simply say, "You wish."
Rallred32 20
Plus, why would OP serve the customer after the bill? Don't you pay the bill when you're done being served? Unless if you want to deliberately go out of your way to spill coffee, which would make the person who was supposed to get the coffee angry as well. There's no good that would come out of that.

#32: It depends on how nice you are to your waiter and how well you tip them. Usually, when I go to a new restaurant, even after I've paid my bill and leave tip, my waiter will still come back and refill my drink. I imagine they wouldn't do that if they weren't satisfied with the tip I left. Just leave 12% as a rule of thumb (unless the service was genuinely bad, and it has happened before), and they'll be grateful for that.
smokecloud_ 37
12%? That's harsh. Most servers have to tip out a percentage of their sales, myself a minimum of 4%. Better rule of thumb: 18-20% for good service, 15% for mediocre service, 10% if it's bad. Stiffing is only reserved for the rudest, shittiest of service.
Almost_Positive 18
People can be so harsh :/ I'm sorry, OP. Some people take out their frustrations on people they think are lesser than them, but that's not right. They were probably having a bad day

Maybe it's a sex offer?
Almost_Positive 18
Yes, obviously. It HAS to be a sex offender! I don't think OP felt sexually violated, just confused and probably offended.
sexysaltshaker 11
I think they said offer, not offender.

Yup, I read that wrong. I'm an idiot, sorry guys!
