84. I Gave Him The Worst Service Ever

I was waiting tables one lunch shift. This middle-aged guy came in as one top. When I got to the table, there were five one-dollar bills laying on the table.
He proceeded to tell me that this was the maximum I could get as a tip from him, and he would take one away each time he felt I wasn’t delivering top-notch service.
I left the table with a smile, told my manager, and she said to give him the worst possible service. So I did. I would leave his glass empty.
Put his order in late. I didn’t care about the tip. Got zero from him, and it was really nice knowing I had manager support.
