Why are black people such bad tippers? (Page 2)

Question

I work as a restaurant server, and black people are far and away the most difficult customers we have. They complain more than others, they're more rude than others (i. e. making rude and personal comments), but the biggest thing is that they tip much less than people of all other races. Every now and again I'll serve a black couple in which the man will tip well, but that's maybe 1 time out of 20. Most black customers will tip at most $3 regardless of their total, and black women are most likely to leave no tip. People of other races tip me very well. What gives?

Racism and ignorance smh well I think your wrong and its an individual thing everytime I go to a restaurant I leave $10 or more and I'm black do um yeah fuck you

Your observation can result from many different factors like location, client satisfaction, the people visiting the restaurant or even your own attitude.
Thus: "Why are black people in the restaurant were you work such bad tippers towards you?"

Maybe its just your stank attitude. Ignorant trash.

Damn... Racism and ignorance at its finest.
Just because a few black people tip less money means you can generalize all black people as bad tippers? You don't do that!!
Take your racist s**t somewhere else.

LauraMarx · Answer

you stole all their fucking money by being white though

shy-awkward · Answer

because white people are trash, and black people have started to wake up and smell the injustice and racism embedded in society. and by the way, no one is discussing this in a 'rational' manner because racism is irrational, stupid, and ignorant all rolled into one white, privileged, used toilet paper.
with a racist attitude like that, you won't tend to be tipped as much by the people you are rude to.

Not all black people give crappy tips, its just a generalization that blacks are bad tippers. I give 5-7 dollars if the service is good.

I consider $3 dollars to be a MASSIVELY LARGE TIP!!! I usually tip $1 - $1.50 dollars. If I have extra change, I will give it to a homeless person or a friend who recently experienced a death in the family. Why should I give it to a waiter or waitress who already has tones of money being thrown at him by other customers?

Demographics has much to do with it. I have mostly black friends down south and hate to admit it but they do tip badly but at the same time many of the white people down south also tip badly. My black friends up in the north east tip accordingly for the most part. I think it's more about geography, finances of black people, your attitude and your restaurant.

It's because they didn't get their mules. When you don't get your 40 acres and a mule those ribs & chicken need to be perfect to dull the pain.

black people are way more polite than whites from my experience

Because they haven't got any money.

I used to bus and wait tables and I always found that to be true as well. I'm not sure why.

EvilPimp · Answer

I've been a server and got tipped shitty by whites after giving them the best service. Should I generalize and say that all whites are shitty tippers?

WillL · Answer

If Blacks are bad tippers, it is because the service sucks. If you think Blacks suck as tippers then your service is going to suck and you aren't going to get a tip.  It's called a Feedback Loop

Ihav2fart · Answer

I thought the Chinese were the worst tippers.

Anonymous · Answer
