When dining out, things can sometimes get a bit tricky. Everyone’s had that moment where things don’t go as planned, right? On one side, you’ve got diners wanting their meal and experience to be just right, and on the other, there’s the staff dealing with reactions when things fall short.
Enter a story from Reddit user u/Mental_Manager_4814, who shared it on the r/AITA (Am I the A**hole) subreddit. The title? “AITA for leaving itemized tips to compensate for my wife’s behavior.” Yeah, you read that right. The dude’s wife has a knack for, let’s say, being “particular” when they’re out eating. She’s the type to send stuff back or ask for things that aren’t on the menu. And OP? He’s always trying to make things right with the staff. So, he started leaving itemized tips based on each hiccup in the evening.
Honestly, it sounds like a comedy show. Can you imagine? Sure, we’ve all had our moments where we test the server’s patience. But this guy took it to a whole new level in this Reddit AITA saga trying to balance things out by leaving itemized tips like this.
