Noah!

My sister Julia and I are with a whole slew of her friends at our St Patricks Day open bar. They splurged and got a table which means we have our own server. Luxury. The bar sent out an email last night reminding us that gratuity was not included, so I made sure to pack some cash.

We’re nearing the end of our time at the bar - aka quite a few rounds in - when I call the server aside. “Noah, Noah!” I beckon him over. “Here!” I slide him a 20.

“Oh, no no. You all have been way too kind already!” He tries to wave my bill aside.

“Well, I haven’t given you anything!” Admittedly, I am intoxicated. And very generous when I am intoxicated.

He laughs and takes the money. Smart man.

It’s only later that we all get to talking and find out that Noah made about $200 in tips off of us today. Safe to say we were his favorite table.
