Waiter restaurant This Italian was shocked after getting a tip from a customer. After all, this young servant earned such a huge sum!
The culture of eating at foreign restaurants is quite different from restaurants in Indonesia. In Indonesia, customers are not required to tip the serving waiter. But not overseas, where most restaurants implement a mandatory tipping system for waiters.

But this time the customer gave Lauren a $7000 AUD (Rp 72 Million) direct tip, while $3000 AUD (Rp 31 Million) was just given to other staff.
