You don’t feel she violated his privacy and held the guest up to ridicule? How is that being service oriented?
The large table monopolizes the waitress from earning elsewhere. Then to use Jesus as an excuse to not pay for the service is IMO low class.
I think I'd rather give a tip to the waitress than 10% of my wages to this pastor, that is for sure.
I think the pastor got her license from Popeye's Chicken or something. No way that was an educated Pastor who wrote that dumb statement.
Never leave a note in PUBLIC you don't want in the public.
You don't feel the customer reacted in anger to the Applebee policy and in doing so embarrassed his/her church (not to mention God)? What kind of witness is that?
I'm having a problem with this line of thinking right from the start of this.
The customer wrote a message on a business transaction document. How is that in any way considered private?
The transaction is taxed, which is a public activity.
If the bill was paid by credit card, then the customer is authorizing a third party to settle the account with the restaurant on the customer's behalf. That loan could be assessed a finance charge if the customer doesn't pay the credit back at the end of the month. That interest becomes income to the credit card company, which is also taxed, a public activity.
After all that activity involving third parties and several layers of public taxation, the customer is still crying about "privacy?"
