'You put zero tip and I can see that upfront': Customer's order gets held up for hours after shopper decides to teach them a lesson about tipping

One customer was 'held responsible for their actions' by a full-service shopper who felt it was their mission in life to teach them a lesson. What was this lesson about? Well, tipping.

Look, people are awful, I get it. I was a waitress once for many, many years, where I met people from all walks of life. Some were kind, some were petty, and some were downright entitled human beings. Working in the service industry really gets your hatred for humanity going, but still, by law, you don't need to tip. Should you tip? Absolutely. Is it your choice to tip? Also yes.

Scroll down to read about the approach this shopper decided to take, and how it all played out in the end. It all began with a rude message that the customer received after placing an order. Below you can find out what it said. Then, check out this engineering firm that lost big time when one of the manager's decisions to punish an employee by taking them off a project went badly.
