NC waiter fired for posting photo of Peyton Manning’s tip

Surely this didn't slip by you guys during Peytonfest


RALEIGH, N.C. — A waiter at a steakhouse in Raleigh was fired after he posted a receipt that showed Peyton Manning left a $200 tip at a restaurant near Duke University.
The receipt from the Angus Barn in Raleigh shows Manning left a $200 tip for a $739.58 tab that included 18% gratuity. The receipt was dated March 2nd.
Earlier that day Manning was filmed throwing on campus at Duke University.
According to NBC17, the photo of the signed receipt was first posted on Facebook. The owner of the Angus Barn, Van Eure, was not pleased and fired the server, according to the Triangle Business Journal.
“This goes against every policy we have,” said Eure. “It’s just horrible.”

I tip well too because I appreciate good service...

Automatic Gratuities are put on bills here with a party of 6 or more usually... Don't know their policy there.

I got a little ticked at a restaurant on the coast when we had 6 people and 3 of them were children under 10

I didn't pay it but I tipped my waitress nicely for her trouble

They should charge MORE for kids because they make terrible messes.

Don't get me started on people that take their kids to restaurants and don't clean up after themselves.

Bullshit, if you don't want kids in your place have the balls to put it on the front door...

Problem Solved

(There's usually four costumers per table, and I've juggled sections of seven to eight tables.) These responsibilities are also expected to be fulfilled throughout shifts up to eight hours. (I often worked doubles on weekends, however.)

Anyways, you drive a truck, right?

I'm very sorry the government taxes their tips, that's ****ed up. That ain't my fault. It would seem to me that waitresses are one of the many groups the government ****s in the ass on a regular basis. Look, if you ask me to sign something that says the government shouldn't do that, I'll sign it, put it to a vote, I'll vote for it, but what I won't do is play ball. And as for this non-college bullshit I got two words for that: learn to ****in' type, 'cause if you're expecting me to help out with the rent you're in for a big ****in' surprise.

I most certainly would.

I have no problem with automatic gratuities for huge parties, because when its one table you know you have to tip, but with a huge party sometimes everyone sort of slinks off thinking someone else will get the tip, or not wanting to adequately tip such a huge bill.

I wouldn't be put off at all with a lot of people, and if I wanted to tip 20% or 25% for a huge group of people, I'd understand why they have to have the automatic gratuity and just write in the extra 2% or 7%

I was under the impression they were at a nice steakhouse, where a $700 tab is 5-6 people. If it's a party of 12 or more that is different.

Room Service auto gratuities are for 1 or 2 people which is a rack of shit.

If you decide to do a good job then I decide to give a tip. You guys are doing OK. If you weren't getting tips then either the restaurant would actually pay you OR people would stop being waiters.

Automatic gratuities are wrong because you reward some people that suck at their job...

If you can't afford to leave a decent tip to someone who does you a good job then you shouldn't be eating out in my opinion...

When you do tip good the wait staff remembers you... You drinks seem a bit stronger and your food is hotter, sometimes the steak looks bigger..

Being nice pays off in the long run...

Screaming kids I agree, Kids that spill their drinks I don't ,that's your job... Deal with it.

Don't get a job dealing with the public if you can't handle the public.

And, I completely agree with that assertion, my aggravation arises from impatient individuals who seem to forget that I'm serving fifteen-thirty other customers. I once had a man grab me by the elbow (on a BUSY night, I believe it was during the Arkansas-KSU game,) to tell me he was going to storm out of the restaurant if he didn't receive his food in the next minute. (He apparently had plans to see a movie.) And, unfortunately, I encounter these individuals all too often while working as a server. While it seems simplistic on the service, (that's actually why I applied for the job.) it's actually quite a demanding and draining line of work.

However, for all of its drawbacks, overall, I've found the job to be incredibly rewarding. For every unreasonable customer, there are at least five others who definitely make the job worthwhile. I have now spent over a year serving at Village Inn and Applebees, and I plan to work at the latter throughout my time at the University of Kansas.

Moneywise, I cannot complain either, I make more in a day at Applebees than I did over an entire week at Little Caesars. (Now that job was truly horrendous.)

I don't have a job that deals with the public.

For what it's worth, I rarely have bad waiters. If it's obviously busy I don't get mad. Hell, even if I get the wrong food I don't have a problem...just as long as some effort is made to fix it. The only times I've not tipped are when the waiter is rude or when I'm getting ignored and I can see them off talking and laughing with their waiter friends. I also tip attractive females less.

For the most part, yes. But some can and do bar kids. Somebody posted one of those on here a while back, can't remember the name of the place now.
