My mother was having lunch with a friend and they were talking with a
couple at the next table. They had lots of time to talk because the
service was so slow, even though they were the only two tables. When
the meals arrived some of the food was cold. When the other table left
the guy left a really small tip. The waitress ran out after them and
screamed and cursed at them. My mother, rather than being intimidated
by that behaviour, left an equally small tip.
