Oh, well.
What a jerk
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...
Road rage in restaurants and supermarkets.
Ardmore is full of rich, old money, assholes.
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.
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.”

Boss your customers around, fewer tips. Right or wrong, that’s how people are.
I’m still learning how to fit food through the tiny pores of the mask that I’m wearing. Maybe if I aerosolize the food first, or dissolve it, and take it intravenously.
I was at a local bar/tiki last weekend. Our favorite bartender/waitress was working without a mask. I asked her about that, she said she is DONE with masks, through them all out, none at the house, none in her car.
All the other waitresses were wearing a mask. We go here pretty much every weekend. Nobody wears a mask going into the establishment or out. Been that way for a few months.
What proof is there that this actually happened?
I love these stories where someone left a tip that upset a waitress so she alerts the media and they run with it.
Yeah, I can’t stand being told to pull my mask up. When ordering, I pulled mine down slightly to make myself heard in answering a question. The order taker quickly told me to pull my mask up in a panicked voice. Yeah, I didn’t tip them. I’m being generous tipping on a to-go order in the first place. I don’t want to be berated about having my mask down slightly.
Outside of a grocery store; I am not spending money ANYWHERE. Sales tax receipts have got to be plunging in states that charge one.
If asked courteously you should respond courteously. Otherwise, consider leaving.
That waiter is not the one mandating masks.
What an asswipe.
