I’m a Hooters waitress and this is how much I can make off a table – but I get called ungrateful
A HOOTERS waitress who shared her tips after one shift got trolled for being “ungrateful.”
The waitress named Ali went viral after making a video where she and her coworkers boasted and complained about the tips they made in one four-hour shift at the popular American restaurant.
The original post by TikTok user @alidspicexo was uploaded on January 7, and it quickly went viral – as of January 28, the video has been viewed over 8million times and has racked up over 1.3million likes.
In the video, Ali shows clips of her friends counting their cash tips before she explains how much she’s made throughout her shift so far.
“My first table, I got a $50, which was nice. It was a four-top,” Ali said in the viral video, which she captioned “YES, we are grateful we also work our [peach emoji]’s off!!”
She then rolls her eyes as she says, “My second table, I got $11, third table I got $20, and then I got $10 from a really old couple. But, whatever.”
She then grins and shows off her larger tips – including a $100 bill “from a single guy” and a $300 Venmo deposit from one of her “regulars.”
At the end of the video, Ali shows the tip she was least happy with receiving.

“All right y’all, this one made me mad. But it’s whatever,” she said while holding the receipt up to the camera.
“They left me $10, wrote it on the bill, scribbled it out, and wrote $5 when I walked away. Why?”
In total, the Hooters waitress received $521 during her daytime shift.
In addition to the massive amount of likes, the Tiktok has also garnered over 11.7K comments by online observers, many of whom were not impressed with the attitude given by the Georgia waitresses.
