Tip jar

Let's dive in.

So until recently, I worked a job where I was allowed to keep a tip jar on the counter.

I was very good at this job, I was very friendly, and established a great rapport with my customers, so this tip jar was usually very full of ones, fives, and coins.

One morning, I'm messing around, cleaning and chatting to the regulars, and in comes a very well-dressed and rich-looking family.

They approach the counter, and the little boy who's with them loudly exclaims, I want chocolate milk and cookies, while grabbing at the selection of baked goods.

She currently places an order for some things that we don't carry, and I regretfully inform her of this.

and then tell her about a great breakfast place around the corner that does.

The woman then asks for directions and I'm in the process of giving them when I hear her kid exclaim, money, and I see a little hand go inside my tip jar.

Business owners in Jamaica Plain are coming together, trying to find the couple accused of stealing the tip jar at a local eatery.

It happened on Thursday night at the Picapoyo restaurant on Washington Street.

Surveillance video posted by Eagleston Square Main Street's shows a worker putting together a food order while a man removes money from the tip box on the counter, handing it to a woman next to him who pockets it.
