Nah, that just ends up being bad karma for you, then. Just let them be, give them the least amout of service possible, and get it over with as soon as possible. The only other women that tip worse than black women are women from India. There's a term for Indian women: Rice, Spice, and no ice.

"Rice, Spice, and no ice" 
I usualy don't like to generalize but I've heard about taxi drivers not picking up black people cause of bad tips? Is that true?

That's not necessarily true. Alot of Europeans don't have to tip, in their home country, so they are kind of ignorant of the procedure, if they are just visiting. Most know our customs, though.

Yeah, it is. I try and not generalise either, but you start to get a feeling about people after being in the industry for awhile.

I would have tipped better if I hadn't just paid $40 for 2 martinis and a plate of curry which came on a serving table that had edges crusted with salt like an inch thick in the corners. Maybe I just ate somewhere out of my price range but I couldn't afford to tip and I was grossed out a bit by the tray it came on.

Booooom said: Foreigners don't tip worth a damn
I usualy got great tips from kids and foriegners, both are claimed to be lousy tippers, my best 3 ever were from some kids that left eerything in their pockets including gum, string, a DK button and about a buck (the girl I worked with thought it was an insulting tip)
another was a $100 from someone that never tipped most waitresses, he didnt wanna hear anything about their problems, just pour his coffee, serve his food and pleasant chit chat
the other was an inter-racial couple that was treated like shit everywhere they went, I just treated them like I do everyone else, they left 3 dollars but gave me a note that was worth much more than the money, I almost cried

I guess another difference is here people serving food are paid at least $8 it's not like they're depending on tips it's just a nice bonus. I think at the end of a shift the tips are usually split.

there are a few places like that here, unfortunately corporate americ has managed to have a great deal of influence in political decisions and managed to keep the wage low, now with the inflation rate, people here cant even aford to drive to work if their job isnt paying well

Ive had so many arguments with young black women, the older ones are usually very nice. Its amazing how a mass of people can be steretypical, dont get me started on the Insane Housewifes.
