In reply to the discussion: Waitress Who Posted No-Tip Receipt From “Pastor” Customer Fired From Job [View all]MADem
(135,425 posts)We can put aside the cheaply produced, flash frozen meals, and the corporate distribution of the prepackaged and oversalted/sugared crap. The thing that resonates here is how shitty that manager treated his employee.
Had the manager just backed up his server, and told the customer that the tip was not "optional'--it was part of the damn bill, and that the pastor was wrong for proselytizing the server over a MANAGEMENT regulation, and that he or she would "counsel" the server about her use of Reddit, that should have sufficed.
Instead, the manager victimized the server TWICE. First, she gets a lecture and a "stiff" by an asshole "pastor," and then she gets fired by an asshole manager.
The only winner here is the fired server--she's the only one who is free of a bunch of dumbass idiots, notwithstanding the fact that she needs to find another job.
