You may be right about no one in their right mind chasing a patron like that.
Maybe the person was not in his right mind. Taking on a compulsory tip <?> of
18% might be the first clue that he wasn't.

My mother was in a restaurant with a friend and the service was abominable.
The couple sitting at the next table had equally bad service. My mother asked
the waitress was asked to bring clean utensils because the knifes and forks at
her table were dirty. Their soup was cold, the main course was cold. The
other couple left a small tip, and my mother was glad that they got out of
there before the waitress saw her puny tip, because the girl had run out to
the street to yell and scream at the other couple.

She did not deserve a decent tip, and apparently, she was not in her right
mind.
