A waitress has shared a very creepy note she received on a customer's check.
It is a sad reality that far too many servers have been subjected to unwanted advances in the workplace - sometimes by their co-workers, often by diners at the establishment.
Recently, a patron at an unknown eatery left his waitress a $1,000 tip on a $128.89 meal - sounds great, right? But unfortunately, the man massively undermined what could have been a wonderful gesture by leaving the server an uncouth message on the receipt.
He wrote: "Beautiful nipples, Princess. Call me."
The diner then signed off: "The Master" and included his Twitter handle, @gentlemanluxory - a Twitter account that is now suspended.
The receipt was originally posted on Reddit but has now made its way to various other social media platforms including Twitter and Facebook.
Needless to say, it has sparked a big discussion on customer etiquette and inappropriate conduct in hospitality venues.
One person wrote: "I don’t see anything wrong with a customer leaving a note and a number to ask a waiter\waitress out or to call them. They can always politely decline. This note however is a bit creepy and offensive, definitely inappropriate to comment on her nipples."
Another added: "All he had to offer was the tip. Sad really. Could have given her 50, and acted like a gentleman."
A third added: "‘Beautiful nipples’ what kind of response was he expecting from that? Imagine someone complimenting your nips."
A fourth commenter took issue with some of the other commenters who implied that the waitress should be "grateful" that she received such a hefty tip.
They argued: "He commented that he liked her nipples and signed it ‘the Master’. That's not some waitress being overly sensitive, that's genuinely creepy.
"I'd take the guy's money as payment for having to deal with his creepiness and I would also blast him for being a giant sleaze. She has no obligation to return the money or keep quiet about his behavior."
A final commenter agreed: “Sadly this is just another example of how some men continue to objectify women and feel that they have the right to make sexual comments about them.
“It's creepy and degrading and I'm not surprised the waitress felt dirty reading it. I see a comment below saying 'Would you still find it creepy if he looked like Brad Pitt?' and the answer is a resounding YES.
“I don't care how good looking a man is - if he says stuff like this he's a misogynist and that's never attractive. I'd keep the tip though - I'd see it as compensation for sexual harassment.”
