I'm the kind of server that will start conversations with people, and have had black people be like "i'm gonna take care of you on your tip" and then leave 5 bucks on a 100 dollar bill.

Now granted, there are plenty black people who do tip, but the ones that don't outnumber them. Even the black people I work with complain about how black people don't tip.

so what's the deal? does it have to do with not knowing that servers only make 2 bucks an hour, or what?
10% and lower? that is just shitty. i try to leave at least a 20% or more when i tip, cause i know about them only making like $2.15/hour. they make that much cause of the tips, but i mean shit, the person is taking my order, makin sure my sweet tea is topped off, and bringin out my food, and taking blame for the food coming out fucked up(when it happens)
servers put up with a lot of shit.
