A woman put DeAngelo Williams on blast for a small tip and now she won’t get any tips because she lost her job.
It all began when the bartender at the restaurant went on Facebook and wrote:
“Just now at work I had Deangelo Williams come in and I waited on while tending bar. His check was $128.25. He left me $129 with no tip but .75 cents. So there you go Stealers fans, your running back is cheap as s**t!!! Smh.”
Williams found out about the social media shaming and fired back, claiming the service was so terrible, a 75 cent tip was too generous. “I tried to leave exact change but couldn’t,” Williams said. “I waited on my food for over 1.5 hours.” The waitress claims he was only there for 45 minutes. Williams says, “She never asked for refills.” What really pissed him off? “I ordered chicken and shrimp in my pasta they put it on my salad.” When he pointed out the mistake, “They took it back and removed it from salad and put it in my pasta leaving a shrimp tail in the salad.” Williams says “terrible service” means terrible tip. “I use to wait tables and use to be a bag boy so I know what I’m doing here.”
TMZ Sports spoke with Jimmy Marcos, co-owner of Ledo Restaurant in Maryland; he says DeAngelo’s server will be terminated over her handling of the tip situation.
The restaurant policy is “the customer is always right” and tipping is a reflection of the service, not mandatory.
“We were in the wrong,” Marcos says.
He also has a message for Williams, “I want to offer anything I can do. I’ll be sure to apologize in person next time he visits and pick up his next meal.”
