  • There's still some good people out there. Waitress gets $10,000 tip on $26 tab

    I don't know if i wanna believe it
    But a waitress in Kansas at an Applebee's got a $10,000 tip on a $26 bill.

    I must say i bet she was quite surprised.

        Damn!

        I never got a tip like that when I waited tables! Best I ever got was a $20 tip on a $6 meal.

        Applebees gets nothing out of the tips. I've never heard of a restaurant taking money from people's tips. Now the Government on the other hand...

            The Ruby Tuesday I worked at took a percentage of each waiter's/waitress' tips at the end of their shift.

                  Exactly. When I waited tables it was up to us to tip out those people. I know alot of places automatically take it out. I would NEVER work somewhere that actually took part of your tips for themselves!

                    The company is in the final stages of verifying the tip, McNee said, while also working to maintain the customer's privacy and make sure the money goes through the proper channels to get to Kienow.

                    "Nothing would make us happier than to present her with that check," McNee said. "She's been with us for eight years, and she's a great employee who does a great job."
                    Whoa is it me or is Applebee's taking credit for the tip and acting like they are giving it to her because she deserved it. That pisses me off

                      ... Its all bs.

                      Im a server and never a get a tip that size.

                      Most Ive gotten is $300 off one tab.

                      And why a 10k tip at Applebees? Best table head ever I guess.

                      Tip out 3% of your sales, sell 1,000 that night, you tip out 30. She has to claim that tip with the government which sucks, but its 10k...

                        She's going to have the taxes taken out of her next paycheck from that tip. So more than likely, she won't get a paycheck that week.

                          To bad tip reporting is required, tax on that is going to be a bitch, I dont know how applebees works but if they take a cut on top of taxes (via said required tip reporting laws) and she wont be looking at 10k anymore.
