Bartender at Applebee's gets $10,000 tip -Hutchinson, KS

http://msnbc.msn.com/id/14598504/&GT1=8404


Bartender gets $10,000 tip on $26 tab
‘I couldn't move,’ Applebee's staffer says after customer's generosity

Updated: 2 hours, 25 minutes ago
HUTCHINSON, Kan. - Two weeks ago, one of Cindy Kienow's regular customers left her a $100 tip on a tab that wasn't even half that. This week, he added a couple of zeros.

Kienow, a bartender at Applebee's, got a $10,000 tip from the man — for a $26 meal — on Sunday.

"I couldn't move," Kienow said. "I didn't know what to say. He said, `This will buy you something kind of nice, huh?' And I said, `Yeah, it will.'".....

you guys.....maybe she is a good bartender, better than the others and the customer just really appreciated her. Either the check is gonna bounce or he's just a kind gent. Maybe they'd had conversations where she'd opened up about a hard life or kids that needed stuff and daddy's that wouldn't help. I think it's kinda sweet........that is, if the check doesn't bounce!!

I'm thinking there has to be some ulterior motive!

Wow that is totally awesome. I was sitting here reading this post and it came on the channel 6 news.

I would be so WOW and dumbfounded as she stated in her interview.

I just think it is someone that has lots of money and no one to spend it on and maybe he likes her and would like to share it with her as a friend and hopes it turns into romance, maybe. I don't really know but it is totally awesome LOL!

If the check doesn't bounce... She better.
