It was a female Pastor who enjoys getting 10% of the wages from her flock who thought it was wrong to give an 18% tip to a waitress for serving her LARGE table full of people.

How do you know the tipper was a female pastor? If so then that really is pathetic. To call the restaurant and demand someone be fired? This person should be shamed and then some. Were I a member of whatever church I would find another church. This person does not represent my Lord.

James 2:19-20

You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

It was referenced in other places, that it was a clergywoman. Here are the two involved:

This is Alois Bell, someone who characterizes herself as a Pastor. If she is, she isn't a very good one. She may have had a "bad day", but her actions reflect poorly on clergy, and give ammunition to those who want to discredit Christianity.

This is Chelsea Welch, someone who characterizes herself as waitstaff. If she is, she isn't a very good one. She may have had a "bad day", but her actions reflect poorly on waitstaff, and give ammunition to those who want to discredit those who serve for a living.

I maintain that it is this turkey of a waitress who committed the key error. She was in her professional setting when it happened, it wasn't even her customer, but she still felt compelled to make hay out of it by posting stupid crap on the Internet.

As I opined to another poster, it is the one in the professional setting who has to adhere to employer's guidelines. If the positions had been reversed, say the "Pastor" had been performing church services and was rude to the waitress above in her role as a parishioner, the shoe would most definitely have been on the other foot, and I would have supported any efforts she made to have the "Pastor" disciplined or dealt with in some fashion. But that wasn't the way it went down.
