A New York waitress received a wonderful surprise when she finished serving a customer one night.

When Becky Nielsen returned to the table she was serving, she noticed the customer had left her a massive tip with a touching note. 

The customer left her a 350% tip and the note read: “Life is short, a friend of mine died last night. Please enjoy a night with someone you love,” the note read.

 The customer left the restaurant before Becky had a chance to say “thank you”, but she plans to honour the request by taking her friends and boyfriend for a night out.

“It was pretty overwhelming,” she said. “I wasn’t expecting it at all … And then I got her note, and it was very touching, you know, it was amazing that she would do that in honor of her friend.”
