Stained Apron

What's your experience with pro athletes? Please comment below.

"My son waited tables at Cracker Barrel while he was in college in Valdosta, GA. A recognizable NFL player came in and sat in his section; two couples at one table and four children at another. He anticipating a large tip and gave them special service. They left a single dollar bill on each table.

I told him he should have caught them at their car, give back the money and said, 'You must need this more than I do?'" 😂

Alexander wanted us to share one of his favorite cartoons, but he wasn't sure who created it. It was Clyde Lamb originally published in the The Saturday Evening Post April 18, 1953! 🤣

Thanks to Danielle Markel for this 2005 article featuring many references to The Stained Apron. Sorry we missed it originally! Look for our website re-launch soon. 👍

A FEW TIPS FROM YOUR SERVER If you eat at restaurants, you may be part of a problem you are unaware of, and you might be publicly humiliated for it. Restaurant employees from around the country are sharing their uncensored grievances on the Internet, and their main complaint is ... you. It's not hard to find stories about wait...

"What evil lurks in the hearts of waiters? Now you can find out. But can you stomach the results?" asks Julia Moskin of the New York Times, who mentions Stained Apron in the 2005 article. The article has been reprinted several places.

Is all this venting childish or is it necessary to prevent something even more gross, or even dangerous? What do you think?
