Man claiming to be pastor leaves waiter note: I give God 10%. Why do you get 18?
By Dylan Stableford, Yahoo! News | The Sideshow 7 hrs ago
A man claiming to be a pastor apparently tried to stiff a waiter on a tip, explaining that his work for God absolved him of having to leave one.
A photo of the receipt, posted to Reddit.com, shows a bill for $34.93 with an automatic 18 percent gratuity (or $6.29) added above a blank space for an additional tip.
"I give God 10%," the diner wrote on the receipt, scratching out the automatic tip. "Why do you get 18?" He then wrote "Pastor" above his signature, and an emphatic "0" where the additional tip would be. (The automatic gratuity, however, had already been added to the total.)
The Reddit user who submitted the image explained in the comments section that the receipt was part of a total bill for a party of 20, which is why the gratuity was automatically added.

waiter to divy up the total.
There is a report that the waiter responded with, ""My mistake sir, I'm sure Jesus will pay for my rent and groceries."
