Many people are exclaiming, “I’m in the wrong profession!” after a Hooters and a bottle service waitress have each revealed the huge amounts they earn in daily tips at their respective jobs. You’ll be shocked!
“I’m working at the wrong restaurant” – Hooters waitress reveals shocking amount she earns in tips during a normal workday
A Hooters waitress is going viral on TikTok after she shared a video post revealing the surprisingly large amount of money she earns in tips during the course of a normal workday.
Leah Fennelly, who works at Hooters while attending law school, has garnered over 10 million views as people are amazed at how much she earns, Yahoo reported.
“I’m working at the wrong restaurant,” one commenter remarked.
Counting off her tips, when all was said and done, Fennelly revealed she had pulled in $382 during an eight-hour shift.
One user did the math that Fennelly earned $42 an hour. But what seemed to impress users the most was how, as Fennelly counted off her tips, she showed equal appreciation for the small tips.
“The ONLY person i seen that appreciates little tips no matter what,” one commenter wrote.
“It’s so refreshing to see you being so grateful even for the not so large tips,” another commenter said.
Bottle service waitress earning massive money in tips
Another story going viral at the same time as the Hooters waitress tips video is another TikTok video from a bottle service worker who is pulling in 4-figure tips during a normal day, often on a single check.
For those who aren’t familiar with the term, bottle service is a sales technique at bars, nightclubs, and lounges, usually for super VIP areas, in which guests purchase a bottle of liquor and are provided with reserved seating, a bottle server, and a variety of drink mixers.
A bottle service waitress who goes by Nina Geruntho on TikTok who works at a club in Scottsdale, Arizona, recently shared a video post revealing just how much money she can earn in tips from a single table, Yahoo reported.
The club where she works has a poolside cabana for all-day festivities, and her shifts seemingly start at 10 AM.
In her TikTok video, which she called a “bottle girl vlog,” she showed two checks, one with an $1800 tip and another with a $3000 tip, which seemed to come from large parties that paid for bottle service.
It was unclear how much she gets to keep from the tip, as it could be possible the club or other waitresses also split some portion of it.
“I’m in the wrong profession,” one commenter wrote.
