Almost everyone is aware that tipping waiters is customary, especially if they are excellent hosts. While the general rule of thumb is to tip 15 to 20% of the bill as a gratuity, Maurice Green went above and beyond, tipping his waiter $100. Green was persuaded to reconsider after witnessing the server’s reaction to the money.

Green was having dinner at a Don Pablo’s restaurant in Dallas, Texas at the time. And he’d noticed how hardworking and friendly the waiter who’d served him had been during that visit. The employee in question was a young man named Johnny, who, unfortunately, had been having financial difficulties.
