After a gay server at a New Jersey restaurant said a customer denied her a tip and wrote her a hateful note on the receipt, a local family contacted NBC 4 New York and said their receipt shows they paid a tip and didn't write any such note.
Dayna Morales, a former Marine and a server at Gallop Asian Bistro in Bridgewater, posted a photo on Facebook earlier this month, showing the bill with a line through the space for a tip. The photo of the receipt showed someone had written, "I'm sorry but I cannot tip because I do not agree with your lifestyle."
Morales indicated in her Facebook post, and in subsequent media interviews -- including with NBC 4 New York -- that the customer wrote that line.
But a family contacted NBC 4 New York claiming their receipt from the restaurant shows they did leave a tip, and provided what they said was a credit card statement as proof.
The husband and wife, who asked to remain anonymous, showed NBC 4 New York a receipt that appeared to be printed at the same minute, on the same date, for the same $93.55 total, except with an $18 tip.
They also provided a document they said was a Visa bill, which appears to indicate their card was charged for the meal plus the tip, for a total of $111.55.
The couple told NBC 4 New York that they believed their receipt was used for a hoax. The wife says she is left-handed and could not have made the slash in the tip line, which she said looks to be drawn from the right.
"We've never not left a tip when someone gave good service, and we would never leave a note like that," the wife said.
The husband said he and his wife have both worked in restaurants and believe in the value of tipping, and noted that he didn't vote for Gov. Chris Christie because the governor doesn't support gay marriage. "Never would a message like that come from us," he said.
Morales told NBC 4 New York on Monday that she was certain she did not receive a tip, and insisted the handwriting on the receipt was not hers. When asked if there had been some sort of misunderstanding, she said, "I don't know, all I know is what I've been saying."
A manager and the restaurant owner insisted they had the original ticket for the $93.55 charge, but would not produce the receipt for NBC 4 New York and could not explain why the family's credit card was charged for more.
The restaurant later said in a statement it was aware of the allegations and had no comment pending an internal investigation.
99.99% of all “hate crimes” are bogus.
This family should sue the restaurant and the server.
Into the ground!
Of course it’s another hoax.
Just like that library vandalization awhile back that was done by an employee.
And the hoax assault on the lesbian.
And various similar things.
They’d be better served just keeping their traps shut and not faking things.
A restaurant is conducting an “internal investigation”? Denny’s has a police force?
What did the lesbo waitress wear a shirt saying ‘other women turn me on’ ???
Jeeeze, these people play act as if its 1960 and they are blacks in the South,
I guess the waiter/waitress had a sign “Hi, I’m your homosexual/lesbian server.” I don’t know how to tell if sexual preference of those who wait on me in a restaurant, and I don’t care. What I do care about is good service and tip appropriately. And will also mention especially good service to the manager.
ha!
That's not all she knows.
She knows that the waitress that last got this type of publicity raked in several thousand dollars in donations from sucker....er, enlightened liberals.
If I read correctly, this waitress also raked in similar donations.
Yes, it's a hoax.
Sounds lie a fraud was perpetrated on behalf of the gay and lesbian lobby.
Aaaand once again trying to relegate themselves to an objectified pejorative ......
I wonder how all the saps who sent in money to the waitress will feel when they hear this news.
Curiouser and curiouser....
>>I wonder how all the saps who sent in money to the waitress will feel when they hear this news.<<
Stupid, used and screwed I hope.
Just like right after they voted for obozo.
More proof of mental disorder. As if there isn’t enough proof already by their perverted sexual desires.
Wasn't there a case just last year involving a supposed arson attack on a female homosexual household that was quickly determined to have been self-inflicted; a basement carpet was slightly burned and some sort of dumb slogan was painted on the wall, but there was no sign of forced entry anywhere in the house.
Then there was the case a few years ago where the female homosexual had written or carved a hateful word on her body, but the word was written backward, revealing that she had done it to her self whilst looking in a mirror.
I have the impression that there are cases in which female homosexuals are incensed that no one cares about their private lives, and that drives them to act out just to call attention to themselves.
It doesn't seem - at least to me - that male homosexuals do this nearly as much.
The restaurant is new. The decorations are strange. My best guess is that the owner is gay and needed some publicity....real bad. If so, well, he got it.
Former marine...she worked in the legal department. you tell me...
They seem to need the sympathy or notoriety of being a victim.
Probably look at it as helping out another gay...AND advertising the wonderfulness and caring of gays.
