Nasrudin went to a posh restaurant and ordered a cup of coffee.
He was dressed in ordinary clothes and received no attention.
While leaving he left a tip of one thousand rupees.
The next day he came dressed in a three-piece suit.
The waiters and all the staff lavished him with the highest attention thinking they would receive an even more generous tip.
After thoroughly enjoying the pampering, Nasrudin left a tip of just one rupee, saying:
"This one rupee is the tip for the service you gave me yesterday
and
the thousand rupees I gave you as tip yesterday were for the service you gave me today."
