IF the story is true (big IF), the response she is getting from “donors” is overdone. Smells like BLM has found a new bag of tricks.

‘Millennials’ are also very rare tippers .
It’s like they have been raised having no clue of what it’s like to work hard to survive and pay bills .

She was probably rude to the customers and they left her no tip, rightly so. She decides to play the race card to get even and get her face on the news. Why does someone like this resort to lying and stupid tricks for 5 minutes of fame?

Probably a hoax here, but VERY REAL in the other direction.

As it is, with the $15 minimum wage, I don’t tip anymore, regardless of skin color.

Three possibilities:
  1. It happened as described probability 0.000001
  2. It never happened probability 0.5
  3. She wrote the note herself to get sympathy funding probability 0.499999

My better half is in the service industry as well. Blacks don’t tip her too well either if most of the time at all, and she’s considered black by demographic standards! Run of the mill black people, with the exception of successful or military, generally don’t tip anyone, and they might as well be saying F U as they get up to leave.

I am not going to call it a hoax out of hand.

I'm absolutely calling it a hoax. I demand that this waitress straight-up PROVE that a customer wrote this note. I think that's impossible to prove. So we are that the Fake News stage, the "some folks say" that a customer wrote the note stage. I no longer accept such crap. Lacking rock-solid proof, I call this a hoax and I encourage her to shut up and go away. I no longer sanction this crap. I will not be a victim of the race hustlers.

I think these young persons read about the previous incidents on Facebook or something, but they don’t ever see the part where analysis or witnesses proved it was fake. They believe the previous people got away with it.

Has there ever been one of these stories that didn’t turn out to be a hoax? I don’t think so.

I know a Japanese American who avoids rendering physical services to Japan Japanese because they don’t tip .

Personally I find that more & more Japan Japanese are tipping , and are generally , very sweet, cheerful and appreciative people . It helps to speak a little Japanese

That is very accurate. My better half rarely if ever got tips from other black customers.

utmost respect for our great black folks that serve in the military I wouldn’t taker a tip even if offered , they along with ALL in active duty service have already earned the merit of us helping them out , without any gratuity involved , accepted or expected . They have already paid in full .

Yep, hoax again. Of course by the time the fact that this is a hoax is determined, 3 or 4 days will have passed and the MSM will have moved on. As has happened many times before, no mention will be made that this is a lie but teh perception will be left in the minds of the low information crowd.

My daughter worked as a waitress until last year (about 3 years in total). She said that many times, Black customers would leave very scant tips or even not tip at all. On top of that, they were far more likely to have complains about the food, service and/or demand refunds than White customers, Apparently, this is very common. But you’ll never see a news article about it.

Hoax until proven otherwise.

Odd handwriting. Sort of ambiguous but not typically male.

Also a little odd that they capitalized “Black”.
