Higher Education
My dad told me a story about when he worked the night shift at a restaurant to get some extra cash in his 30’s. He said one of the servers had been feverishly serving a very cranky woman but had not lost their temper once (he witnessed the whole thing). At the end of the meal, the lady handed the waiter the check and said, “Here’s the bill. I’m not putting any tip on this, because I don’t want to reward you for being uneducated.”
The waiter handed the money back to the woman and replied, “Actually ma’am, I’m working here to pay off my student loans and am currently in graduate school. Have a nice night.”
