This is from an old story, back in the '90s, in the days when an
ice cream sundae cost much less. A 10 year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop
and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him
"How much is an ice cream sundae?" the little boy
asked.
"Twenty Five Rupees,"
replied the waitress.
The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the
bucks he had. "Well, how much a plain ice cream cost?" he inquired.
At the same time, more people were waiting for a table and the
waitress was getting very impatient. "Fifteen Rupees," she roughly replied.
The little boy again counted the bucks he has. "I'll have
the plain ice cream," he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away.
The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress
came back, she began to cry. As she wiped down the table, there placed neatly
beside the empty dish were "Ten
Rupees".
You see, he couldn't have the sundae because he had to have
enough money to leave her a tip.............!!!!!
