An arrogant banker has done all in his power to enforce his position as the ‘one per cent,’ all the while reminding everyone else they’re not.
After dining on a meal at a boutique Newport Beach, California restaurant, the banker left only $1.33 on a $133.54 tab.
Adding insult to injury, he gave the server, Breanna, another tip: ‘Get a real job.’
The banker’s belligerent behaviour at True Food Kitchen was documented by his dining companion, who posted a photo of the receipt to Twitter, alerting Eater’s Receiprocity blog.
The post - and corresponding blog - was later deleted.
FutureExBanker, wrote in a now-deleted post: ‘I work in the corporate office of a major bank for a boss who represents everything wrong with the financial industry.’
The blogger said that his boss will tip exactly one per cent of the bill ‘every time he feels the server doesn’t sufficiently bow down to his Holiness.’
He didn't even have the courtesy to round up to $1.34. It'd be a real shame if this guy's name and face got around to other restaurants and there was some kind of accident where fecal matter ended up in his foie gras. Yeah, a real shame.
EDIT: Thankfully I discovered today (28 Feb) that this is hoax.

Cheapness is a shrewd strategy for staying in the 1%.
He'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.
