Pastor refuses to tip "I give GOD 10% why do you get 18%"

Unhappy with having to pay a restaurant's auto-gratuity of 18% for parties of eight or more, a pissed-off pastor used his receipt to express his indignation.

"I give God 10% — why do you get 18?," the man wrote above the autograt line before crossing out the pre-printed tip and signing the receipt "pastor."

The St. Louis-area server who posted a pic of the receipt on Reddit said the pastor was dining with a party of 20, and asked to have the $200+ bill broken up into smaller increments in a failed attempt to avoid paying the 18% tip.

"They had no problem with my service, and told me I was great," the server said. "They just didn't want to pay when the time came."

Redditors have been trying to track down the less-than-charitable Christian, but have so far been unable to identify the culprit.

At least one pastor was forced to issue a response denying responsibility, and the server herself has asked fellow Redditors to stop posting personal information of random people "who don't deserve a Reddit mob banging down their Internet door."

UPDATE

Edit: Pastor has now apologized -- waitress fired.

Carry on with the chastising....

Heh, nice. I really feel bad for them because I worked with servers in their 30's. That's the town I live in. It's not just a bunch of kids.

And I've written down the "**** this guy in the neck" part to use at a later time. I love well thought-out insults!

To be completely honest, I was taught by a very special guy that this was the way to behave.

And lo and behold, it works! It works whether it's the limo driver to pick you up in Vegas or for the server at a fine restaurant or for just about anything.

Now, I realize that not everyone has the means to do so but if you're on vacation or have a special weekend set aside, an extra $20 here and there can go a long, long, long way into making that weekend or vacation special.

It's simple common sense: The more you appreciate others, the more they'll do for you in return.

I swear, i'm ALWAYS shocked at not only the amount of posts, but the passion in them in these tipping threads... want a red hot 100+ post thread? make it about tipping

If i cant leave a solid tip, i wont go out to eat, its a pretty simple rule to follow.

Having been a server and bartender, i know just how much you have to rely on them to make any kind of a living.

You have the right to not tip, or to tip meagerly... but if you frequent the same place often enough, word gets around and you WILL be the very last person to get what you want if your server can help it.

The shit you post, if it were actually funny and entertaining, could be reality show material.

Unfortunately, you're just boring and stupid.

The sad thing is that $6.29 is 18% of his income

Eating out is already way overpriced. They could cut most restaurants rates in half. Rather cook it myself. Every time I go out to eat I lose my appetite due to the exorbitant price of the food.
