An entitled restaurant owner steals the money I was giving to one of his waitresses, as a Christmas gift for a job well done.

But as a result, he only gives her a small portion of the money that I gave to her in a sealed Christmas card,

claiming that tips are shared throughout the restaurant, and that she had no right to the money in the first place.

And I was so upset that I approached this guy and made a scene, and demanded that he give her the money back.

Here's what happened.

So I go to a local lunch spot a few times a week, and I am waited on by the same young woman every time I eat there.

She is always very polite, and she knows I have limited time, so she lets me leave cash on the table for my bill,

rather than stand in line at the register.

I always leave her the change, probably about $6 on a $14 tab, something like that.

Last week, I dropped off a Christmas card for her.

I tucked a $100 bill in the card, thanking her for her service throughout the year.

She wasn't there, so I left the sealed card with the owner.

Yesterday, I went back for lunch, and my favorite waitress was there.

As soon as she saw me, she smiled, and thanked me for my Christmas card, as well as the $20 that I gave her.

And when I heard that, I was shaken up a little bit.

I told her, no, I left you $100, and that's when she told me something that absolutely blew my mind.

She said that the owner opened her card, and since all tips are shared by the staff,

he gave everyone a share of the $100 bill that I gave to this one waitress.

And when I found this out, I was absolutely floored.

This meant the guy had opened a sealed card that I delivered.

He took the $100 out and put $20 back into the card.

As I was leaving, I saw the guy coming out of the back, and I asked him to speak with me.
