An American server was sacked from her job after scoring a whopping $10,000 tip, sparking a stir among co-workers who missed out on the cash frenzy, and lawsuit threats. Linsey Huff, who also goes by the last name Boyd, a waitress from Michigan, was fired after receiving the bonus of a lifetime but refused to tell on her co-workers, who had complained about not getting a cut. Linsey also claimed the restaurant’s owners where she worked threatened to sue her.
Linsey had reportedly collected the super generous gratuity off a bill amounting to a total of $32.43 from a customer named Mark at the Mason Jar Cafe, where she worked, while he was in the area for a friend’s funeral earlier this month.
Mark, who left the now-viral tip in honor of his late friend, had requested the $10,000 be split among the service staff, as eight of the servers walked away with approximately $1,200 each, The New York Post reported.
