Tipping isnt just a place in China

I love that little sign that you see when you leave some restaurants. It speaks to me and to others I think they see it as just another little known fact posted for randoms to see on the way out of eateries. I have worked in food service and i must say that without a doubt black people are the WORST people to serve. Now I wont say ALL black people but 95% of them... yup I said it. Let me give you all a little insight on the food service or restaurant business.

Yes we know exactly where we were gonna seat you as soon as you walked in the door. I would never seat a table of blacks with our best servers who of course get the really good tipping tables. They are just gonna run our best server crazy by changing the menu around, splitting the tab when there are 50 people at the table, and then only a few of them will tip and the rest will leave enough tip to even out the bill. For example if one persons bill is 19.80 they would leave .20 in the tipping section to make it an even $20.00. Lets not forget how they eat half the food then complain to get something free or the whole meal comped. The only way the seating is messed up is that table of black women that always want to sit everywhere but where the fuck you sat them in the first place. Its like you know the persona's when they walk in the door. The richest black person still wont tip. They have the nastiest attitudes with the staff and literally get up from the table and don't leave a thing but dirty dishes.

Then we all have that one friend that causes the most trouble in a restaurant knowing damn well they didn't have money to go with you in the first place. They justify not tipping because of "bad service" when really the staff was wonderful its just their ass causing trouble. I look at the bills when my friends are signing the receipts and it kills me that they don't know how to tip sometimes. Like leave 10%, 15%, or 20% if you really liked them. These people make $2.00 an hour and I'm sure lots of them have kids or are in school somewhere just like you. I always leave good tips because I know the stigma that's put on me from the time I walk into the place. Being the charming person that I am I like to flirt and have fun with them. I have seen the brokest niggas go into a eatery and ACT like they were worth a million bucks and I hate to say that some of them are my friends. I have even put a few extra dollars down on the table just to compensate for the lack of home training some of them have had in the past.

In conclusion lets all learn how to tip or stay ya broke ass home. Don't take ya broke ass to another place with your black skin making mine look bad. the minimum is 10% and 20% or more if you have had a good time. This money goes to the valet staff, the servers, AND the hostess stand. So when you get up with good conscience and don't leave a dime you are hurting those youngsters working hard to make something of themselves. If you have had bad service then I completely understand not leaving anything. Everything I have said is on the grounds that you have been given good service.
