This is the kind of news you like to read.
According to CBS 17, a Greensboro, North Carolina, Waffle House waitress, Shirell “Honey” Lackey, received a monster tip from an anonymous country music singer while working a double shift.
But it wasn’t just any double shift… Honey also was taking care of her daughter in the restaurant while taking care of customers.
The anonymous country singer placed a pickup order and somebody from the crew picked it up, leaving a $50 tip. But when the crew member got back to the bus and told the artist about Honey, he came back in and dropped an extra $1,000 dollars on top of it.
He also gave her two concert tickets, as well as sent toys and clothes to her home.
According to Honey, he respected her hustle:
“He was like, ‘I have to respect a mother that would do whatever it takes to support their child in a society where people don’t even want to work anymore.’
It feels good to be recognized. I mean, I don’t do it to be recognized, I do it because Bella is everything… but it’s nice to be recognized for doing the things we do as mothers.”
The artists remained anonymous, however since he gave her a couple concert tickets for his show the next night, it shouldn’t be too hard to figure out. I’ll leave it up to you to do your own detective work.
Stay classy mystery man.
