A Guy Leaves a $1,000 Tip . . . and Goes Back the Next Day to Get It Back

This is REALLY funny, in a sadistic kind of way.  Mostly I’m just glad I’m not on either side of the story. A guy went to a Thai restaurant in Edgewater, Colorado for dinner this past weekend.  His bill was $60, and he left $1,088 in cash. So the staff celebrated, and all split the money.  The restaurant has been around for five years, and the owner said she thought it was a reward for all their hard work. But the next day, the guy came back.  He said he was DRUNK the night before, and he thought the $100 bills he was putting down were ONES.  So he asked for the tip BACK. The owner actually gave it to him.  And he was so psyched, he gave her $100 to cover his $60 bill and a $40 tip.  That’s still a 67% tip . . . but not quite the 1,800% tip the staff THOUGHT they’d gotten. They say they hope he’s going to come back and keep being a customer.
