Restaurant calls out young girl on Facebook for stealing tip

In surveillance video, a girl is seen finding a $5 cash tip that was left on the table by previous customers. The girl shows the bill to her mother before hiding it under the kid’s menu ...

Owner Benji Arslanovski saw the surveillance footage and posted it on Facebook.
“Do you mind bringing back the server’s tip? She would appreciate it. We know how people can accidentally mistake tips as their own.”

Arslanovski says the tip was meant for his waitress, and that money is part of her livelihood. He said he gave the waitress the $5 from his pocket after the incident happened.
“She’s pregnant. She has two children,” he said. “She really needs that money. She’s going to be off for a while.”

... the money was returned after the Facebook video was put up. The mother of the girl who took the cash said she did not realize her daughter had taken the bill and called it a misunderstanding. Arslanovski took down the video after the money was returned.

Good start to a few 'dimes' in prison later in life, and/or an untrustworthy person to anyone who happens to fall in love with her someday. Not cool mom. Not cool at all.
