FRAT
Man that happened to me at a Margaritas (fake ass Mexican restaurant/bar chain). I used to pre game there every Friday or Saturday in my mid20s before we'd hit the bars. Before you knew I had friends coming, friends of friends. I always gave a ridiculous tip. Always at least 20-25%. So anyway were wrapping up one night putting our tip in the leather receipt thing. I close it, then I realize I gave her a $50 instead of a $20 so I reopen it and take my $50 and put in a $20.
I go there next week and something was up, they hadn't served me yet and the place was PACKED. All of a sudden like 6 bouncers and the manger come up to me and tell me to get out. And then I. Front of everyone the bitch says 'cuz you stole from a waitress'. I was like WTF.
So we go out front, and she tells me I was dipping in the waitresses tip. I was like WAIT, I didn't give her the leather check holder thing yet and the food and drinks I paid by card. I said 'it's my money! How the FUCK can I steal my own money'. I was furious. Next I see the cops pull up and she tells them what she think and then I told the cop what happened and how she just humiliated me in a packed bar.
First time in the history of the world, the cops back me up, told her she was out of line, and it was my money until I gave it to the waitress. Then the cop asks for her liquor license (WIN!) at the time I was furious and going to take the bitch to small claims court but you can take the kid out of the projects but can't take the projects out of the kid. So I decided I wasn't going to go the judicial route.
2 weeks later I get a call from the regional manager apologizing to me. And that I should come in and the waitress and the manager would also. I made sure I came in at the same time when they shit on me, a packed Friday night. She asked me to come to the back, I said "no you asked me here and you can say what you need here" the manager had to apologize to me in front of the whole place. And my drinks were free that night.
Sorry for the FRAT
