How Nice? A
teenager working as a waiter in a restaurant got the suprise of a lifetime when
a customer whose bill was at $20 and some cents and to the waiters surprise he
got a tip for $1000.
For a teenage waiter, a generous tip can mean the world. Especially when that generous tip comes with a few zeros behind the dollar sign.
Brendan Motil, a 19-year-old server who recently began working at Smokey Barque BBQ in Frankfort, Ill., was shocked to discover something a little unusual on one of his tables’ checks.Though the bill was $20.31, the tip was a staggering $1,000.
“My jaw dropped. I couldn’t do anything. I was in shock,” Motil shares in this interview with a local Chicago broadcast station.On a slow night at the restaurant, the 19-year-old had taken the time to chat about life with a male customer, who apparently appreciated the service — a lot.
In a note written on the back of the receipt, the mystery tipper wrote, “Thanks for your kind service! You’re doing a great job as a server. I’m not sure what your hopes and dreams are in this life, but I hope this tip helps.”
He goes on to add, “My hope is that people [are] more peaceful to each other. The world can be so negative and violent, [so] I commit random acts of kindness…”
This particular act of kindness will be put toward funding Motil’s college education, a dream we’re sure the mystery tipper would be more than happy to support
