I also want to apologize for my group. Because we were new to the situation, our 13-year-old minds didn’t really know how to handle the bill. You were very helpful in splitting the bill and accepting our cash.
The bill was fair, but we had totally forgotten (and honestly didn’t know) what a tip was, or how much to leave. So we checked our pockets and found we had a total of $3.28.”
“We didn’t realize how small it was, so we left without knowing the impact it would have on all your hard work.”
Later, we understood our error and felt really bad. We understood we had to fix it.
In this envelope, you will find a tip of 18% of the total bill, plus a little extra for being great. We are grateful for your assistance and understanding, and we appreciate you for making our evening enjoyable. “Thanks!”
The total cost was about $100, and leaving a $3.28 tip is less than four percent of the bill. Fortunately, the teenagers understood their error and took the necessary steps to deal with it correctly.
The server shared a photo of the note online with some uplifting and friendly comments.
“I have been working for a long time, and nothing like this has ever occurred to me or anyone else.” I don’t know how you found out about tipping, but I really appreciate your effort and kindness. I hope you had a great time at Homecoming!
Not everyone makes the effort to correct their mistakes, but when they do, it can have a big impact. This dedicated waiter truly deserved the recognition.
