What a racist.

Gosh, I wonder who they're voting for.

There is nothing worse than a person who doesn't treat service people well, except for a person who doesn't treat service people well on account of a pre-existing characteristic.

Did she get the name from their credit card? Someone should doxx the hell out of them.

The solution of course, is to rid ourselves of the ridiculous tipping culture and just add a service charge to the restaurant bill. Make the prices tax-inclusive, too.

Or, you know, pay servers the same decent wage as everybody else in the service industry, instead of passing on the cost of employment from the employer to the customer.  Like everywhere else.

If we got rid of tips, what do you think would happen? And the customer bears the cost regardless.

Errrrm, maybe hold off on that. If this is real, then that person is obviously a racist scumbag. Unfortunately (fortunately?) like 9 out of 10 of these types of stories turn out to be hoaxes.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

So they left a note behind instead of telling this to her this in face?

Brave!

[Antonio the Sixth]

Ugh.

If you click on the story, then you will realize that this was quite real.

Sometimes I wonder if these would still be happening even if a certain man (who shall remain unnamed) had decided not to apply for a specific, powerful job. The sad truth is that in 9 out of 10 cases, the answer is yes. What makes it even worse is that sometimes, the answer is no.

This morning while I was driving to work there was a lane merge and some guy drove all the way up as far as he could in the shoulder lane and then butted in to the front of the line while we were all waiting.

Should we start a thread about him too?  Since when is random people being assholes newsworthy?

[TDAS04]

Disgusting.

[Associate Justice PiT]

Brave!

     It doesn't surprise me that the person who did this was a coward that couldn't tell someone off to their face.

That really is the right way to merge though, zipper merge (not merging until you have to), not merging 5 miles back and creating an even worse backup.

Not if you're using the shoulder as an extra lane.

[Bismarck]

Well this is horrible, not particularly newsworthy though.

[progressive85]

People are scum.

[jamestroll]

Yea... No...

Clearly there are logical reasons to oppose illegal immigration. However, when I am at a restaurant, I honestly do not care what their immigration status, race, etc are. Depending on the service they give, I will tip accordingly.

This would be for another thread, but I feel like the whole tipping culture in the United States is bad.... charge meals what they should cost to cover employee's wages, imo.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

The "angry diatribes being put into tip lines on bills" trope is getting old. Ever since the customer wrote "lose some weight" on his bill and gave it to the waitress, it seems that every waitress/waiter in America is under assault.

I'm calling BS. It's not the story itself, just the increasing volume of them, that makes this an easy target. I ought to get a waiting job and forge something like this. I'm sure some do-gooder millennial Bernie chick in Nevada will set up a Go-Fund Me for something for me. Free cash, why not?

[Green Line]

Someone wrote a mean thing thing about someone else in America. Zomg it must be a national news story.  If only we could have a "conversation about race".
