Moral of the story: Do your excessive tips in cash without cringy fanfare. Its humans in a barrel at the bottom, they’ll always pull each other down if you provide transparency.

The fanfare is the point here--film the ecstatic waitress. Tipping the kitchen staff could have happened instead, specifically did not.

You must literally only know and experience truly awful human beings, or! You might be one.

  People that give big payments for their own content creation are truly awful human beings. This should have been a normal tip that just happened to be a few magnitudes larger than others.

Yah but CEOs get highly publicized bonuses to reward them for 'excellence' despite it being the company behind them making the actual products. Why should a waitress have to take money under the table to keep her explicitly customer-granted bonus, when CEOs get to brag about it and it's much harder to draw a link between those bonus funds and a direct service activity? Those on the bottom of the totem pole need the recognition, esteem, and resume building much more than the CEOs.

  If it was the company behind giving the waittress a highly publicized tip, then there would be a discussion to be had here. As it stands, there is no similarity for this heartfelt dystopia.

  I don't think it's the CEOs that are publicizing their bonuses. It's the anti-business media and political circus mainly.

    No doubt those bonuses would be secret if they could be. Fortunately they are required to be transparent, so the only option is to brag about how well-deserved they are.

    How is that anti-business?

  Exactly. On other hand, the msn article is so badly written, I'm not sure I understand exactly what happened in this case.
