La camarera Emily Young esperaba atender algunas mesas y marcar la salida. Luego, un cliente que había estado viajando por todo el estado esperando este momento cambió las cosas. “Fui a cobrar la cuenta, se puso de pie y me preguntó si podía hablar conmigo”, dijo Young, de 30 años, de Portland, quien ha trabajado para la empresa de pasteles durante cuatro años. Dijo que sabía que no era una queja porque la gente de otra mesa estaba sonriendo. Seth Collins, un residente de Kentucky de 34 años, le dio a Young la propina número 82 de $500 en su misión de viajar por el país, dejando grandes propinas en memoria de su difunto hermano, Aaron, quien murió a los 30 años. Collins ha repartido $41,000 en todo el Medio Oeste , Sur, Pacífico y Mountain West y espera llegar a los 50 estados. En el testamento de Aaron Collins, se guardó una solicitud bastante extraña para el final: le pidió a su familia que dejara una propina "increíble" de $ 500 para un mesero o camarera. Collins habló con Bangor Daily News sobre su búsqueda el fin de semana pasado mientras visitaba Bangor. Young había oído hablar del informante en serie, pero no sabía que Collins estaba en Maine. “Me dio la pista y me explicó sobre el viaje por carretera”, dijo Young, a quien le entregaron billetes de 20 dólares y una postal sobre la odisea. “Es una historia noble que su hermano tenga ese deseo. Estoy emocionado de que me hayan dado una gran cantidad de cambio”. La infusión de efectivo que llegó justo antes de las vacaciones se aprovechó. “Le di propina a todos, a un mesero y a la persona que trabajaba en la cocina”, dijo Young, quien hizo su propia versión de devolver el favor. Más tarde invitó a sus amigos a cenar y pagó la cuenta. “Eso no es algo que suelo hacer”. Hay un video muy bueno aquí también...

I started using waiter wallets when I broke into fine dining. It's helped me so much, especially with the extra pocket insert. I have a place for all my signed receipts as well. Will continue to buy for years to come.

Works great for most of my needs. Two things though... needs a space for table numbers on the order pad + order pad slot needs to be open on one side so tickets can be tucked under.
Thanks for the feedback! A couple of suggestions.
1. In the far left column, write the table number and circle it. Then below it (in the same area,, write the first position number. Then, in the next rows, continue to write the table numbers for every guest on a new line. Repeat for the next table, on the next line (after the last guest at the previous table.)
2. The wallet area was desined to hold your tickets on one side of the credit card divider, and your cash on the other side.
Hopefully these tips help make the Waiter Wallet work even better for you!
This Waiter Wallet is awesome! Its durability is amazing. Its a perfect fit for all the things I need to have for service but not overly bulky. It has a nice look and feel. The insert see-through page will come in handy for new drink menus and lists that change! I love it!

I write with my left. I’ve been looking for a book that would be comfortable and efficient with ample storage. Writing this review after my first night of using the Waiter Wallet, I can confidently say this product is the right choice for servers.
