Everything was going well until the very end, when the waitress completely ruined it with her entitled attitude.\n
\n
When the check came, I left a $10 tip on top of the $85 bill. As the waitress picked up the money, she sneered and said loudly, \u201cTen bucks? This isn\u2019t the 1950s anymore, you know.\u201d I was stunned. Her tone was so condescending and rude. My husband\u2019s eyes widened in disbelief. \u201cExcuse me?\u201d I said, instantly annoyed. \u201cI think 10 bucks on an $85 bill is more than fair.\u201d\n
The waitress rolled her eyes dramatically. \u201cIt\u2019s a standard 20% tip these days, cheapskate. Do you not know how to calculate that?\u201d I couldn\u2019t believe her snotty attitude. That $10 was over 11% which is a decent tip by any measure. Her entitlement really rubbed me the wrong way. \u201cYou know what,\u201d I snapped, losing my cool. \u201cWith that kind of nasty attitude, you don\u2019t deserve a tip at all!\u201d\n
I swiftly reached over and snatched the $10 bill back off the table. The waitress\u2019s mouth fell open, and she started loudly berating me with insults, calling me names and causing a whole scene. Other diners turned to gawk at the commotion. My husband was embarrassed.\n
Finally, the manager had to come over and forcibly remove the unhinged waitress, who was still yelling at me. We ended up just having to leave without leaving a tip. I\u2019ll admit I probably overreacted, but her smug, condescending behavior absolutely infuriated me. After treating a customer so disrespectfully, she didn\u2019t deserve anything extra. But I\u2019m getting heated debates from others on whether I should have just brushed it off instead of making a scene.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
