A Pennsylvania waitress said a customer left her a note about face masks on his receipt in lieu of a tip after she reminded the man that he needed to cover up when he's not seated.
A photo of the receipt with the word "mask" written on the tip line was shared on the Facebook page of John Henry's Pub of Ardmore, where the waitress works.
"When your staff politely asks a customer to wear a mask until seated, this is how they are disrespected. Totally unacceptable. 'YOU' should be ashamed of yourself!!" a caption on the post reads.

Oh, well.
What a jerk
So would you be a jerk too?
The server was probably complying with company policy. Why take it out on her if she gave good service?
Like it matters if you wear a mask for the few seconds on the way to your seat. However I don’t give the waiters grief. They don’t make the stupid rules on this. Don’t do this kind of nonsense people. Don’t be the person attacking the person just doing their job.
Unless it was restaurant policy, the server should have kept her mouth shut.
Smile, take the order, give good service, and keep her opinions to herself.
Writing in zero or nothing instead of “mask” is in no way less disrespectful. If anything the customer let her know what his issue was.
(And no, I wouldn’t stiff a waitress like that)
I guess I dont really have a problem with someone promoting and enabling tyranny not getting a tip for it...
That’s how I look at it. My beef is with my idiot Governor and Tony Fauci. Not some eight-dollar-an-hour store clerk.
Road rage in restaurants and supermarkets.
Ardmore is full of rich, old money, assholes.
The employer may be making it a condition of employment that the server has to get in the grills of non-compliant customers. The server may have to do it to keep working there.
I was eating at a locally owned Mexican restaurant a few weeks ago in a suburb just west of Minneapolistan.
The waiter told us the reason we must wear a mask from the door to the table is because the fine is six grand. A few of those would put them out of business.
Actually, I can empathasize with that customer. A few weeks ago, I went to the library forgetting to put on that stupid mask. The librarian gave me this sweet little lecture about how she just wanted to keep everyone safe. (I was the only patron in the library.) For some reason, I just lost it. It was too much. I just couldn’t bear to put on that suffocating mask. I was a little bit nasty, and then I left heartily ashamed of myself. But sometimes, that mask is JUST TOO MUCH TO BEAR!!!!!!!
If I cannot be served without wearing a mask I take my money elsewhere.
I swear, it's magical!
Let's go out to eat, 2020 style...
1. Arrive at restaurant, fish three month old single-use surgical mask out of car's filthy cupholder (still slightly sticky from this morning's 84oz diet Pepsi).
2. Strap up with three month old single-use surgical mask. *MAGICAL ANTI-GERM BARRIER ENGAGE!!!*
3. Proceed into restaurant, opening door with same handle grabbed by 200 people so far today
. 4. Hostess has immediate seating for your woke party of three. Walk past entire restaurant of unmasked people. It's ok, they're sitting.
5. Sit down. *SEATED ANTI-GERM FORCEFIELD ENGAGE!!!*
6. Safely within your anti-germ forcefield, remove mask. Browse menu while making relaxed inhales of the same recirculated AC air previously inside the lungs of the 200 people that also grabbed the door handle.
7. Waitress drops off drinks bare handed.
8. Grab drink with your bare hand. Sip leisurely, secure in knowing you're within your anti-germ forcefield of seatedness.
9. Too many drinks. Need to pee. Don the magical anti-germ barrier mask as you leave your anti-germ forcefield of seatedness.
10. Walk past 40 unmasked restaurant patrons. Open bathroom with same door knob grabbed by 100 other people so far today.
11. Return to table past same 40 unmasked restaurant patrons.
12. Remove mask. Once again safe in your anti-germ forcefield of seatedness. Waitress takes your sweaty drink glass with her bare hand, refills, hands back to you. You accept with your bare hand. Grab some bread and eat it. Same hand. Yum Yum.
13. Meal complete. Mask on. Walk past 40 unmasked patrons. Make full body contact with at least 4 people waiting at the hostess stand as you squeeze your way back to the door - no matter, they're all also wearing their magical anti-germ barriers.
14. Grab exit handle, which you are now the 220th person of the day to touch. Eating out successful.
15. Breathe a sigh of relief knowing that even after leaving the protection of your home and venturing out into the scary world of the public, you are essentially sterile thanks to your state approved methods of magical germ mitigation.
copy and repost if you like😂😷
I agree. The server is a jerk.
I am running into some servers who have taken on the role of Mask Police and have gotten really rude about it.
There are two restaurants in my area where I will never return because of the rudeness of 18 year old smart mouth servers.
When I complained, the managers didn’t really care.
not hardly
