A WOMAN has revealed just how little she gets in tips whilst working as a Hooters girl at 32 weeks pregnant.
Cassidy Paige, from Louisiana, took to TikTok to share how much she gets from customers for a 4.5-hour shift at Hooters.

According to Cassidy, who is expecting a little girl to join her and her partner, the ”pregnancy hasn’t been the worst” – which is why she is still able to work.
”I do work a lot, I work Monday to Friday usually. And if I do have to work an extra shift, I’ll pick up a shift on the weekend,” the mum-to-be told the 49.5k followers on her page.
After running around with a baby bump for several hours, the Hooters girl revealed she had made around £43 in tips – however, the majority would have to be split between the other workers.
At the end of her shift, the waiter – who left earlier because of back pain – counted the cash foodies and visitors had left behind.
”I have an $8 tip, a $2 tip, a $4 tip, a $7 tip, a $10 tip, $20 in cash, a $10 and $4 in cash – and this one is a zero,” she showed a receipt.
”Crazy because I was literally running around for this table and they tipped me $0.
”And she asked about my pregnancy, so she knew I was pregnant,” the brunette beauty was furious in the video.
”That’s kinda f***ed up – but whatever.”
According to the Hooters girl, the location where she works at the waiters ”owe the bartenders” a total of 2% of every tip they make.
To those critics who told Cassidy that she should get her boss to ”pay better” and not slam the customers, the worker hit back, saying the visitors should not ”come to a restaurant and expect good service”.
‘Tipping nothing should actually be criminal’
The video, which has racked up close to a whopping 500k views in just one day, has left many totally divided.
While many appeared to be on the customers’ side, others sympathised with Cassidy, given the US huge tipping culture.
One was totally baffled, writing: ”a $0 tip is insane you deserve so much more especially since you’re pregnant.”
Another chimed in: ”making a pregnant server run around and then tipping nothing should actually be criminal.”
Someone else wrote: ”i swear the tables that make you run the most never tip and the ones who are chill and never need anything tip the most.”
Meanwhile, one viewer thought: ”Well your boss should pay you better, you’re his employee not the customer that is already paying a service.”
A woman said: ”I don’t understand girls that think just because your pregnant your supposed to be treated differently.”
Someone else chimed in: ”Making you run around pregnant? Do you mean you run around doing your job!!?? And you CHOSE TO BE pregnant.”
