24. Many years ago at a place called Jalapeno Charlie's
Fri Feb 24, 2012, 04:04 PM
Feb 2012

A friend was a waitress there. She had a table of four that stayed for about 3 hours and she busted her ass getting more drinks and whatever they wanted. The total tab was $99.89 (this was back about 1980)
They left a $100 bill and walked out. She took the 11 cents and ran out into the parking lot after them and threw it, telling them to keep their change. The one bozo got huffy and walked back in demanding Charlie fire her.
Charlie just looked at him(Knowing full well what happened), opened the cash register, gave her a $20 and told the ass he never wanted to see him in his restaurant again.
