A waitress at the Lamp Post Diner in Camden County, New Jersey, got a very sweet surprise February 15th from one of the police officers there. His meal came to $8.75, but he left her a $100 tip. He did this after learning that the young waitress was expecting her first child.
He also left a note for her that said: “Enjoy your first. You’ll never forget it.”
The waitress’ father, Brian Cardigan, posted about it on Facebook, and this is what he said: “You always hear about how bad the police are, how they treated you like dirt, how they are on a power trip. Yes, I am sure there are some bad apples, but most of them are just doing their jobs, they deal with the worst of society every day and have to keep going back [every day] and deal with it all over again.
My daughter is a waitress at a local diner, she is also 7 months pregnant and working still to save as much money as she can.
What a wonderful person to not only leave a VERY generous tip, but a lovely message. I don’t know you [Mr.] Police Officer, but you made my little girl cry, and made her year.
Thank you, I always had the utmost respect for officers, but you went above and beyond, not just an officer, but a beautiful human being. God Bless.
You always hear about how Bad the Police are, How They treated you like dirt, how they are on a Power Trip, Yes I am…

We love our police officers, and they are always cast in a bad light, sometimes justifiably. I’m just glad that people see that they are real live human beings behind the badge, and strive to do good.”
