Gave a server $100 cash tip on a $90 ticket yesterday that he screwed up on more than once.
- Forgot our daughter’s side, that I even repeated because I had a feeling he didn’t catch it.
- Forgot our son’s friend’s drink.
- Missed a request on my food allergy prep.
But that dude did everything with a smile, and love, and fixed things as fast as he noticed.
When he brought the ticket and card reader, I asked “Do you have to split your tips?” Think he thought I might stiff him, because he was a bit shaky in his reply. Would have tipped him either way, but if he had to split it would have tipped once for the crew, then slid him his own.
“No, sir. Goes straight to me.”
Gave him $100 💵 and cat got his tongue.
Like that old saying about people don’t remember what you did. They remember how you make them feel. He was 100% doing the best he could.
You deserve it, Lamar. 🤜 🤛
