As restaurant workers struggle during the pandemic, a waitress in Pleasanton received a huge surprise from a customer -- a $1,200 tip of a lifetime.
The tip could not have happened at a better time for Allie Geissman, just days before new COVID orders went into effect temporarily forcing her out of a job.
“This is $1,200 we know you are shutting down soon, thought this would help,” said Marilyn Weinstein of Pleasanton.
Geissman still can’t believe the first-time customer at Brava Garden Eatery in Pleasanton gave her that big of a tip.
