Modern Day Kamikaze

We extend congratulations to Andrew Millbrooke of Wahiawa, who with a few bad days on the job and a hasty click of the “Send” button has managed to unite the five branches of the military here in Oahu, something that hasn’t been done since the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.
Seems our Mr. Millbrooke is a waiter at a very popular North Shore eatery who had the unfortunate idea to write an op-ed letter to the Honolulu Advertiser in which he stated that all members of the military are bad tippers. Well, the military and non-military alike took up the cause and fired back over the course of the week, one of my faves being, “It seems that you don’t like your current job…May I suggest you show your true patriotism and join the military?” In his original missive, he all but said the name of the restaurant, and the owners had to send their own rebuttal on the subject, saying they do not share his views and the military is always welcome. No word on whether or not he was still employed there, but we can guarantee if he is, he is often requested.
