Waiter saves the day
Here’s another story of a guy getting stood up at a restaurant. A gentleman, who was clearly in his mid-40s, ended up waiting for an excruciatingly long time for a date that wouldn’t show. The longer he waited, the sorrier the guy and his rose looked. So, to salvage his night, he ended up ordering dinner and eating silently by himself.
The OP felt horrible for the guy since it looked like he was on the verge of tears. The OP, who waited on the poor guy, dug deep into his tips that night and comped the guy’s meal. The waiter comes to save the day yet again.
