Jersey woman refuses to tip gay waitress, leaves offensive note instead
Just in case you were actually enjoying your day and walking around thinking that the world is a decent place and people treat each other reasonably, here's a story out of Bridgewater, New Jersey that is all too familiar and, astonishingly, still happening everywhere even though is 2013.
Just in case you were actually enjoying your day and walking around thinking that the world is a decent place and people treat each other reasonably, here's a story out of Bridgewater, New Jersey that is all too familiar and, astonishingly, still happening everywhere even though is 2013.
Dayna M. is a former Marine who serves tables at the Gallop Asian Bistro in Bridgewater. She recently waited on a family of four and things didn't go so well.
Not only was it a family with two kids, but as I introduce myself and tell them my name is Dayna - the mom proceeds to look at me and say "oh I thought you were gonna say your name is Dan. You sure surprised us!"
Ugh. Unfortunately, the way the family finished its meal won't surprise you. In lieu of a tip on their $93.55 bill, the woman left a note explaining that she couldn't tip because she doesn't agree with Dayna's "lifestyle."
Dayna's post has been shared more than 5,000 times and she's received a flood of messages of support and encouragement. Which, I guess, is the same as a $20 tip. [Have a Gay Day, h/t Gawker]
