When a Waffle House employee was having trouble keeping their eyes open during the graveyard shift, Alex Bowen was not about to stop them from getting some much-needed sleep.

Instead, he decided to take manners into his own hands.

Bowen had originally walked into the West Columbia, South Carolina restaurant at 3AM in search of something to eat after a night of drinking. After unsuccessfully waiting 10 minutes for someone to assist him in the deserted restaurant, he finally went back into the kitchen and saw the exhausted employee slumped over a table.

Bowen told Inside Edition: As soon as I walked around the bar to go to the back and I noticed one employee sleeping, I looked at her for a few seconds and I thought about waking her up but I thought this employee is probably tired, I got you fam, Ill take care of it.

Bowen then made himself his own steak and cheese sandwich, gobbled his meal down, cleaned up after himself, and quietly left the restaurant. He didnt dine and dash, however Bowen later returned to the restaurant so he could pay for his food when a cashier was present.

What would you do if you went to eat and the chef was sleeping on the job?

If he felt bad for her because she was exhausted, why did he just put her on blast for it? Is he thinking management won't find out and fire her for sleeping on the job?

So he's going to get the person fired and probably cause issues due to health code violations for letting customers cook in the kitchen. Great

It was probably the best steak and cheese sandwich that has ever been cooked there lol

Also, I probably would have at least woken the employee up before leaving since the next person to come in might not be so nice

I don't want to be that guy but I will here...

Can you imagine how flipped this story would be had a black man or man of color walked in and done the same thing? Think the media would be talking about how "creative" and "crafty" this guy was?

Careful. I got modded for saying this because "It's racebaiting to point that out"

The mods actually confessed they know it isn't breaking the TOU in the appeal but refused to overturn it anyway.
