Haven begins the video by filming herself doing her server checkout.
“I’ll show you how much I made after I put all these in,” she explained.
Her charge tips totaled $609.76 after a total sale of $2,027.03.
“I don’t think I’ve ever claimed that much on any shift,” Haven exclaimed.
Then Haven goes to the bar tip out the bartenders and collect her total tips.
Smiling, she continued her video. The Daily Dot reached out to Haven via TikTok comments.
