A Customer Wants To Make A Waitress' Life Miserable. So The Waitress Blurts Out The Truth.

Not-so-fun fact: A waiter's minimum wage in America is $2.13 per hour plus tips. Waiters are three times more likely to fall under the poverty line than average workers, and women are three times more likely to be a waiter. They average $18,590 annually in income. Which ain't much to live on. Which is why this waitress has something blunt and kind of hilarious to say.

Thank you for posting it and for the facts about wait person pay. Too many people don't treat their wait persons as human or tip decently.

Watch how they behave toward wait staff or other customer service employees. It doesn't matter how nice they are to you. If they run roughshod over them; they're assholes.
