Luckily, amid these trying times, there are still some generous people who are more than willing to extend a helping hand. This happened to the staff of “The Starving Artists” in Ocean Grove.
According to an article from CNN, the owner of the restaurant, Arnold Teixeira stated:
The customer and his family ate their meal and left without saying a word,” Teixeira said. “When the waiter serving them saw the tip, she just started crying.
Then another one of my staff members saw it and started crying, too. And then I see it, and I couldn’t help but cry. It was just extremely emotional because it’s been a really difficult time for us.
A customer left a heartwarming note on the back of the bill with a massive $1,000 tip attached to it. The note read:
Thank you so much for working through this tough time.
We are grateful for your delicious food, warm smiles, and great atmosphere… Please know we appreciate you all very much. It wouldn’t be a good summer without the Starving Artist
The customer asked that the tip be divided among the staff. As per the article, Teixeira split the bill between seven of his employees excluding himself from the split.
