Outback server fired over online rant slamming church for skipping tip

A Florida Outback Steakhouse worker says she filled a local megachurch’s $735 takeout order and then was fired when she ranted on social media about not getting a tip.

...

Christ Fellowship Church in Palm Beach Gardens was holding a conference and called in an order to the local Outback Wednesday for 25 steak dinners, 25 chicken dinners and 25 side orders of potatoes that Yoder said she had to prepare, costing her other tips.

...

A friend read her post and called the church to complain and was told that the person who picked up the food didn’t know to leave a tip.

“Coming in to eat or takeout, you should automatically be wanting to tip 15 percent,” Yoder said. “From there, you either go up or go down based on service.”

A church representative called the restaurant Thursday to make it up to Yoder.

Nevertheless, she was shown the door.

... Outback has a strict policy forbidding workers from posting about customers on social media, WSVN reported.

Outback even reimbursed the church for its big order.

“We did not call the restaurant to have her fired, we wanted to get the situation resolved,” church official David Lonsberry told the Palm Beach Post.

What?

You would not tip a server on take out any more than you would tip the guy behind the counter.

Someone else made that order up, you just handed them the bags.

I was at a drive through at a FF place and ordered something that totaled $1.96, I handed the cashier 2 dollars and she asked me if I wanted the 4 cents back!

“I’m a big tipper in real life”

You mean like hundreds of dollars?
