Letter to Applebee’s boss [Letters]

You may (or may not) have missed an small but bizarre news report out of the US: When pastor Ms Alois Bell who was at an Applebee’s restaurant got the bill, instead of either leaving a tip or just ignoring it, she wrote “I give God 10%, why should you get 18%’ referring to the 18% tip printed on the bill. The poor waitress posted a picture of the bill on a social networking site (with no other reference than the customer’s signature). Applebee’s decided that the act was worthy of the watiress’ dismissal. The dismissal prompted a backlash against Applebee’s action, including this letter from a Michael T Zybura, a furious regular customer who is also a part-time pizza delivery guy.
