On Thursday, I saw a penny face up on the floor at a department store. I told myself that I'm going to need luck for my math test next Thursday.
Then, my boss called me to work on Friday. I was going to work with L (coworker) and Bobby (the boss assistant), I thought the assistant will get his share of the tips but near the end of L shift at 9 pm. I learned he does not get any tips because he is paid more than us. At the end of my shift (at 11pm), guess how much tips I got? $50.75!! Usually, I get $15 per six hours shift and $20-$25 per eight hours shift. 2 hours of tips for myself feels great! Whenever I see someone dropping their change at my tip bowl, I feel even more happier.
The next day, Bobby told me to work from 9 am to 5 pm instead of my usual 3-9 pm shift. I got $25 and the next day (Today), I got $25. Total tips for three days of work : $100. Yes! That money is going straight to my trip this summer. (Will talk about it on my future post)
By the way, I'm quitting my job in about two/three weeks. After three years of working at Tim Horton, I figure it's time to move on to something else and I'm going to miss this place a lot.
Hope the penny will bring me luck on Thursday test but I need to study hard.
$100 tips in three days? Thank you lucky penny!
