I think the person made the $4,400 tip didn't understand that the waitress was not the only one served them, not even the one contributed the most of the labor.

I think the person made the $4,400 tip didn't understand that the waitress was not the only one served them, not even the one contributed the most of the labor. Just imagine how other workers would think to let the the waitress alone take out the big tip.
- zuminator 5y agoThe thing is, in the USA, there is a minimum wage, and waiters specifically are allowed to receive a wage much lower than the normal minimum because they're expected to subsist off tips. Other non-tipped restaurant employees get paid an actual wage for their labor. So if the waitress received a windfall, it's only fair that she get to keep it and not be forced to share with the other fully compensated staff.

- michaelt 5y agoGiven the article says the customer explicitly called the restaurant to check their tipping policy in advance; and to ensure their favourite server would be waiting on them that evening, it seems pretty clear that's not the case.
