They’re therapists, janitors and they also serve as a security guard of sorts – they’re washroom attendants at Chicago’s swankiest clubs. And here’s what they have to say about the best tips they’ve ever gotten.
“50 bucks! A girl cut herself on some glass one night. I used my first aid kit to clean her up and bandage her. She came back at the end of the night and tipped me with a $50 bill.” –Gabriela Ruiz, washroom attendant, Shay Lounge
“$100—just because I listened to him talk. Drunk people can be very nice sometimes.” –Ricardo Nieto, washroom attendant, Parliament
“The best tip I ever got wasn’t money. One time I started talking to these girls who ended up being friends of Joakim Noah. They brought him by to say hello. He’s a total sweetheart.” –Clee Pope, washroom attendant, various clubs
