A crisp $10 note left by a diner is a welcome sight for any server.
But when one waiter went to pick up one such note left tucked under a customer's plate recently, he was outraged to find it was not cash but instead a 'real tip' on a bogus $10 note.
'Some things are better than money' it said on the back, 'like your eternal salvation that was brought and paid for by Jesus going to the cross.'

Ripping off the working community for bacon and eggs , how pathetic? I am sure these "cheap" Christians have already forgiven themselves of their latest crime spree.

The fact that this was even printed as something to give instead of a tip is quite malicious.
The christians that do this are slime. Period.

How cheap, and rude. >:( wow I cannot believe someone would do this, what a vile slimeball. If it was a pastor or a rev. doing this Id be even MORE furious, esp since he's avoiding paying taxes. ugh! what a dirty rotten cheapskate. I always tip well for good service, and unless the service was horrible, I always tip.

Turning the world atheist, one tip at a time.
Heh! And they probably don't even realize they're doing it!
I'll bet the schmuck who left the fake $10.00 tip actually thought he was doing a good thing.
Spreading the word & all that nonsense.
The waiter, who makes $2.65 basic pay an hour, did not take well to getting the 'advice' and posted photographs of the scene to the social newspaper Reddit.
In it he added: 'P.S. I have never been more atheist.'
$2.65 an hour should be a crime!
They should at least get minimum wage, plus any tips they earn.

Anything that turns the mind away from dogma opens it to reason. That seems like a good thing to me :)
As far as the 2.65, I've never heard of a waiter having much higher base pay, they work for the tips. I always try to remember that.

Just goes to show, were they put their values.

It really is a matter of values: Some people blindly live for some self-satisfying fantasy of what comes after this life, and therefore defile the world we live in. They have values, but they are anti-world values - values that cosset callous disregard for what's here-and-now, indurate to the impact of their self-satisfying behaviors on others.

That crap bill has been around since at least the early 80's. I used to find them dropped all over the ATL airport.
However, it is a new low to use it as a stealth tip dodger.

I liked this comment on the article's comments section:
well the solution is simple, mosey on down to the local church on Sunday and deposit it back in the collection plate, see if the can survive on it
That would solve it damn quick.

Perfect solution.
See how they like worthless tracts as payment for their services. They might see it for the cheap, deceptive and slimey practice that it really is, and stop deluding themselves that they are doing anything remotely helpful or good.
