Applebee's has put out yet another statement addressing its decision to fire the server who posted a pastor's rude receipt online. Explaining the decision again, the company adds: "Please note that we are also not excusing the Guest's behavior in this matter and the unacceptable comment she wrote on the receipt, which is offensive to us and all our hard working team members. To be clear, the 18% gratuity added to large party tickets was paid by the Guest's party. This is a regrettable situation, and we wish it had never happened." [Facebook, Previously]
