Pizza Hut Waitress Gets $10,000 Tip
(July 13) — It was just a typical day on the job at the Pizza Hut in Angola, Ind., for 20-year-old Jessica Osborne when out of the blue, she received a gift that would change her life: a $10,000 tip from one of her customers.
“When I opened it up, I just — I thought maybe I read too many zeros and I lost my breath,” Osborne said on “Good Morning America.” “It was amazing.”
The tip of a lifetime came from a family of regular customers. Every Friday, Becky and her family, who asked that their last name not be used, come in and order the same thing: a Meatlovers pizza, half pepperoni, half black olives and mushrooms.
Becky said Osborne always came to the table with a smile on her face.
“She was sweet and bright and cheerful and never complained,” Becky said. “She was just a sweet waitress.”
