Michigan server who got $10,000 tip says she was fired in ensuing dispute

Linsey Huff's lawyer says restaurant's owners sacked her for refusing to name names in conflict over money

A Michigan restaurant server who recently received a $10,000 tip on a $32 tab says the establishment has since fired her amid a dispute over how many of her co-workers deserved a share of the remarkably large gratuity.

The story of the tip that Linsey Huff earned while waiting on a table at the Mason Jar Cafe in the western Michigan community of Benton Harbor on 5 February initially went viral on corners of the internet dedicated to uplifting news because it had been left by a patron who wanted to honor a late friend.
