B-Man Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Oops. Restaurant Calls Photo Of Banker’s 1 Percent Tip, ‘Get A Real Job’ Message A HoaxFebruary 27, 2012 A wealthy banker set off public outrage after he allegedly followed up a $133 meal by leaving his waitress a one percent tip and a personal tip – “Get a real job”. But the restaurant where it supposedly happened said it is all a hoax. According to Huffington Post, CNN and several other news sites, a person claiming to be an employee of the “wealthy” banker took a photo of the receipt and posted it on a blog, “Future Ex-Banker”. The blogger paired the photo with their own caption: “Mention the ’99 percent’ in my boss’ presence and feel his wrath. So proudly does he wear his 1 percent badge of honor that he tips exactly 1 percent every time he feels the server doesn’t sufficiently bow down to his Holiness. Oh, and he always makes sure to include a ‘tip’ of his own.” The blogger surmised that the post would probably mean losing his or her job. Not surprisingly, soon after the blog started getting a lot of public attention it was taken down. The post set off a hailstorm of online comments that touched on the 1% vs. 99% class warfare embodied by the Occupy movement. The Huffington Post posted a correction to their story, indicating that the restaurant called the blog’s photo “altered and exaggerated”. The restaurant told CBS2/KCAL9 that they have been receiving hundreds of phone calls and e-mails from people outraged over the reported story. They have confirmed that the receipt was changed and that the original receipt lists the meal as just over $30, with a 20 percent tip and no message aimed at the waitress CBS - LA .
