   Praying for you, at the bottom of receipt. This did not sit well with Judd, the 20-year-old waitress who got stiffed. Judd, who is a lesbian, crossed out the customer’s name and posted the receipt on her Facebook page. I don't care what anyone says, this is the most disrespectful thing you can do, she posted. Don't pray for me darling, I have everything I could possibly want and need in my life. (The post is no longer visible to the public. Judd has either deleted the post or changed her privacy settings.) — SPLC (@splcenter) April 15, 2016 I never expected a hateful gesture like this, Judd told KAUZ. I've had a guest leave me a pamphlet to their church as a tip one time, but I didn't feel as if they were being hateful towards me.
