\nWhen you\u2019re a waiter, you receive immediate feedback about how well you\u2019re doing your job in the form of tips.<\/p>\n

In theory at least, the better you do your job or the more you do it with a smile, the more money you\u2019ll make.<\/p>\n

But sometimes, your tips aren\u2019t about you \u2014 they\u2019re about your customers. And they can make you lose faith in humanity \u2014 or restore it.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what a waiter from Los Angeles, California recently found out when he received a $3.28 tip.<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing more frustrating than when I get little to nothing for a tip and the customer is smiling and thanking me profusely as they exit,\u201d the waiter wrote.<\/p>\n

The stingy tip came from a group of four teenagers and it made the waiter question the way the teens\u2019 parents raised them.<\/p>\n

But 10 days later, a letter came that completely changed his mind.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been serving a long time,\u201d the waiter wrote. \u201cNothing like this has ever happened to me or anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

The waiter added on Imgur, \u201cThese kids came back another day and left this for me at the front desk with $18 and some change.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also had a message for the teens themselves. \u201cI don\u2019t know how you learned or educated yourself on tipping, but I really appreciate the effort and kindness. I hope your Homecoming was fantastic!\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, the teens\u2019 letter has gone viral, with people everywhere praising them and their parents.<\/p>\n

What do you think? Did this letter also restore your faith in parents and the way they\u2019re raising their kids? Share it to inspire others and give these teens the credit they deserve!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
