If you’re a server who gets a $0 tip, at least you can hope you get a good story out of it. Jessica Morris of Centerville, Ohio definitely got that.
She was working at her waitress job on Saturday, and a couple that was celebrating their honeymoon in romantic Centerville, Ohio came in for dinner. Jessica didn’t reveal where she works, probably because she wants to keep her job.
Jessica says she joked around with the couple a lot and everything seemed fine, but when they left and she looked at their check, she saw the woman had left her zero for a tip.
But she did leave a different kind of tip. She wrote on the receipt: “He’s my husband! Find your own! Good luck.”
Jessica actually did find a husband; he also works at the restaurant. She was also wearing her wedding ring the entire time.
She posted a picture of the receipt on Facebook, along with a long rant about the woman. But when it started going viral she pulled it down. Luckily someone re-posted it. It’s really long, so here’s our favorite part:
“Dear Jenny, I would like you to know, the server that was in the section across from mine is my husband. I found him on my own, and he looks better than yours.
“Also, I would like you to know that I’m sorry my husband treated me to a cruise for my honeymoon and not a restaurant.
“As well as, my husband would never let me feel so insecure that I would feel the need to write such a terrible note to a server and make them feel the way you have.
“So Jenny, here’s a life tip for you from me: Your insecurity as a woman is heartbreaking. Have pride in yourself and your relationship with YOUR husband to where you don’t need to put another down to bring yourself up.
“Especially a server who lives off her tips and needs them to help her husband pay bills.
“P.S. My husband said you can sit in his section next time — that way you won’t have to be so worried about your husband ‘flirting’ with a server.”
