Oh man, what next? How about suing because they don’t give you a discount? Hey, I like that one...

African Americans are notoriously bad tippers. Sorry, I really don’t mean to be racist, I think it’s just a wired cultural thing.

Call me crazy, but I don't think that I'd
want to eat at a restaurant where the help hated me.

I wonder; did the lawyer demand payment up front?

A friend of mine is from Australia. Tips are included in the tab there and she was horrified to find out (after she questioned why I left so much money on the table, most of the time people don’t leave cash on a table-just put the tip on the card receipt) that not only do waitresses and waiters make like $2 an hour instead of the minimum wage, but that the gratuity is not included in the check here in the states. She said “Oh my GOD! I’ve been shafting people for months now!!”

Yes, I'm suing Wal-Mart because the “less than normal” greeter failed to give me a shopping cart. I was forced to get one myself!
Gawd, the humiliation!

Well even if she wins, she can never eat there again. God only knows what would end up in her food. Other restaurants might do the same thing now. *gag*

Covington said in a statement to WXII. "I have always left a good tip at Kanpai Restaurant , even when I was given poor and less than honorable service."I highly doubt that is true. Waiters and waitresses do a slow burn when a customers keeps returning and stealing from them each time. I tip so I end up subsidizing the greedy a-holes that don't

Maybe she did not tip because the food or service was lousy. Then you wonder why would she go back? Methinks there is more to this story than being reported.
We always tip 20% IF the service and food is extra good. Then we get extra service the next time we go back. 15% if it is average. And if it is not, we do not go back, ever.

It seems like all I am reading this morning is news about ‘poor, unfortunate victims’ who just out of the blue have terrible things happen to them. And are going to sue.
Turns my stomach. The Land of ME.

The restaurant has a right not to serve her.
But if the service is so bad, why does this lady return? I bet she’s some sort of nut.

Here’s an idea. How about the restaurant pay their waitstaff enough so tipping isn’t expected. I’ve been to places that specifically state NOT to tip and the service, surprise!, is much better.

I just want to know who decides on the "standards" for tipping. In the 70's it was typically 10%. Somewhere in the 80's it went to 15%... even though prices had also gone up. In the 90's, the "expected" rate started to creep up again... now we're at this 18-20% level. It's getting pretty nasty when you already have an expensive meal, often a special restaurant or service industry tax, PLUS 20% for your servers (whether they earned it or not).
The result? I typically avoid the sit-down restaurants.

“Yes, because we can’t keep continuing to serve her anymore because the servers and chefs are not willing to serve her,”
If I own a resturant... and one of my employees refuses to serve a customer, they’re fired.

Tipper Gore?
Remember it was reveled prior to the 2000 election, Al and Tipper, on an income of millions gave almost NOTHING to charity.
And with carbon futures crashing, maybe they don’t have anything left.
