Really? I always get good service at Denny's.
It's usually a elderly black woman. I'd give like a $10 tip because they're so nice..
But like the majority of you.. Bad service = No tip. Simple as that.
Bad customer service because your young and a minorty Unappreciation

And if its a local restaurant, from your own community.Originally Posted by Forgot About Jae
This whole crappy customer service problem has alot to do with the people who are serving you..alot of them are from OUR generation..the iGeneration which of course is made up of alot of loser/slacker dudes and good for nothing spoiled girls. Young people tend to be more impatient as employees from what I see.
This thread reminded me of the bad/slow service I always get when I go to Dennys with a friend of mines. He's a cheap bastard and doesn't leave tips. So everytime we go with him to eat at Dennys, our food takes forever to come out. Everytime we leave him out, we get our food back in about 5 minutes justafter our drinks. If its a restaurant I frequent then I tend to be friendly with the staff and leave good tips just so that they remember me. If I get badservice at a place, I either a) don't return to that place or b) make a complaint to the manager and make them aware of the issue.
For that person with the 19 person party, wasn't gratuity already added to the bill?

I feel you OP I'm black and sometimes I just have to leave a place if the service is bad, but this happens too often...but even if service is bad I feel Ishould tip well as a reflection of who I be..

Stereotypes are going to always exist as long as there are different races mixing it up. Get over it. As long as there are the stereotypical people doing thestereotypical things, nothing is going to change. Each race or gender has to work against a lot of adversity in different situations. Even though I am white, Iam stereotyped to leave fat tips whenever I go to a nice restaurant, even when the food and service is sub par with some of these overrated "nice"chain restaurants (i.e. Cheesecake, PF Changs, Bonefish Grille).
I used to work at a grocery store where Indian people would ask for discounts on everything from grapes to cereal to milk. SMH.
A friend of mine worked at bestbuy where Indian people would ask for "10% discount" or "let me speak to your manager about that discount".Indian people are by far the cheapest people I have encountered.

You're more at fault for assuming she said it because you're black.

I get terrible service constantly. It ends up always being with an issue, because more often than not im with a proud black woman who don't stand for that+@!@. I just can't understand that mindset "black folk don't tip well, so they won't get my best service." Then at the end of their mealand crappy service you go complaining to your co workers "they didn't even tip". Like you think we can't see you giving the white couple twotables over better service?
I do tip well for excellent service though.
are you slow? there are restaurant workers in this post admitting to giving poor service due to the patrons being minority.

Can you read? Obviously it IS an issue if actual restaurant workers in this very thread admit the practice is true. Hell, I was a waiter and I know it isfirst-hand. So don't say something like "stop using the minority excuse, blah blah blah", as if it adds anything to this conversation. You'rewrong...

I'll call it how I see it, and you can take it how you want.
1) You won't get good customer service if you look broke.
2) Younger crowds are prone to not tipping, so they also get the cold shoulder.
3) There's a stigma that African Americans don't tip and if they do, it's not the standard 15%
4) If you don't want to tip, than get take out. Simple as that, no one is there to serve you for free. Servers livelihood depend on those tips, as theirhourly rate is about .50 cents to 3.00 an hr.
5) All minorities don't get the cold shoulder, from my observation it's just the African Americans that get the brunt of the horrible service.
