Florida Waitress Repays Bad Tippers By Stealing Credit-Card Info

Her parents are lowsy teachers.

Everyone caught committing this crime should be executed.

do only waiter and waitress have to be tipped ? what about the clerk at the government office, who processes your documents it time ? tipping will lead to corruption. Work !

Godinlis:
You've obviously never waited before. You don't tip? What a scumbag. Maybe you live in a state where waitresses make minimum wage, but i don't. If someone doesn't tip me it means i'm essentialyl paying you to eat. I make $2.13 an hour, i depend on those tips to make my bills, feed myself, and get to work. If i manage to screw up your dining experience, i'm not going to be mad at a poor tip, but if i did nothing wrong and you give me 10% or no tip, you're selfish and greedy and you've probably never had to deal with trying to work what can often be and extrememly stressful and unfufilling job because you've got to make money somewhere.
What this woman did was wrong, but what you do is wrong, too. Somehthing i like to say to people who "don't have enough money to tip" is that, if you don't have enough money to tip, don't go out to eat. Don't make some poor person slave over your table and service hoping to make rent and then gyp them because you don't have the money. You waste thier time and money, becaue the table that replaced you could have been a table that WOULD have made rent. If you don't have the money, get your food to go, make a meal at home, or get fast food.

Now, what i was going to say before i read your awful comment is that I work with a woman who used to, back in the day when the whole creditcard number was printed on the reciepts, would write down the credit card numbers of the people who tipped badly and call in a few pizzas to the homeless shelter.
When people tip me poorly i'd never steal thier money but if i see them again you can guarantee i wont be waiting on them and if i am i wont be giving them any service, not if im not making money on it.

once a thief,always a thief

Quick fix , everyone in this country should have to work as a waitress or waiter , a customer service rep ,
a cleaner and some job in retail at the beginning of their work experience. Only after you yourself have had to work these jobs do you begin to understand. People who say " I can imagine what it's like "
are full of it. Until you do it ,no you can not imagine it. People are so wrapped up in themselves it's pathetic but then you come across the nice person and realize they aren't all like that.
That being said a thief is a thief and trying to justify being a thief is ridiculous.

tipping should depend on service not % of amount spent. if the server does a great job i typically tip 20-25%--fair only gets about 15%--poor service about 5% and a tip to the server that even though you may be having a bad day your earnings depend on how well you treat your customers, after all the customer is the one to provide the paycheck(especially for food servers), but if something is wrong with my order I do not take it out on the server--it is not their fault, after all they did not do the cooking. alot of people would do good to remember this one rule--they serve the food, they don't cook it and in most restaurants they do not do much in the line of cleaning either. the tip should be based solely on the service provided--was it timely(?? are they busy)//was there a smile and greeting//was there an introduction//did they come back to ask if you needed anything or if everything is satisfactory??

gallon typo

Here's an update for all you tippers. The average tip in food service is 20% NOT 15%. Im not a waitress or even in the food industry, It is just unfair what these people get paid and what they put up with. You couldnt pay me enough to do what they do.

This is the same guy who stiffs the pizza guy without thinking about the fact that they pay 3.50 a galon for their gas lol
