Anyone who has ever worked as a waiter or waitress, knows that while it looks easy, being a server is an incredibly demanding, tiring, and thankless job that pays next to nothing.
Because the job pays so little, most servers rely on the generosity of their customers to make enough money to get by, unfortunately, however, most servers earn just a few extra bucks from cheap customers who refuse to pay for good service. So when one waiter from a Texas restaurant went to collect the check from a table that had just finished their meal, he hoped to make at least a ten to twenty percent tip.
Yet when the waiter, who is originally from Ireland and is also expecting his first child, looked down at the check, he was speechless when he realized the table left him a $750 tip. “Hopefully this can get you back to Ireland for the holidays,” the generous customer wrote.
“My boyfriend got this tip last night at work,” the waiter’s expecting girlfriend, Taryn Keith, shared on Facebook. “He’s from Ireland and is trying to take us back there once Killian is born so we can meet his family. Thought I would share to show everyone there’s not only hate out there. Truly blessed.”
