A restaurant server appeared to hit her breaking point after a group of patrons walked out on their $125 bill.
"To the girls that ran out and didn't pay their tab, you left your glasses, b*tch," said server Jessica Guevara in a TikTok video on Saturday. The employee, whose social media indicates that she lives in San Diego, California, has racked up over 480,000 views on the clip.
Holding up a pair of glasses to the camera, Guevara proceeded to drop it on the ground and stomp repeatedly. She snapped the eyewear in two and crushed the lenses out of their frames.
"Hope these were $125," she said in the caption.
Dine-and-dashing can take a direct hit on the livelihood of restaurant workers. Under federal wage-and-hour law, a restaurant can require an employee to pay the loss from dine-and-dash customers if it does not push the worker's wages below federal minimum wage, according to Johnny C. Taylor Jr., CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
However, certain states—including New York and California—have laws that prohibit deductions from employees' paychecks for cash shortages and other business losses.
Though some viewers were taken aback by Guevara's revenge, most still took her side.
"Girl glasses are like $300 [oh my God], my soul," commented a viewer, adding, "But go you."
"I would have just called the cops," said another user.
Several viewers said they also worked as servers and empathized with Guevara's rage.
