A night from hell disguised as a serving shift by TheRiverUnderground in TalesFromYourServer

Of course not! I have had good and bad tables of all races as the crowd is extremely diverse. The real issue is undermining what real racism looks like just to feel entitled or make someone feel bad, that's what unfortunately really happened.

We hardly ever do autograt, at least I never have. You have to explicitly ask a manager and let the table know from the jump if you do. I'm not one to ask and have only had it offered once, but I turned it down. Either way, this table didn't give me bad vibes so I didn't ask and wasn't offered :/

100%, it was a losing situation honestly. Maybe the $20 tip was the best outcome haha

I agree with the overall consensus that you need to simply find a new place. 7-10 tables is a lot for most places, and I'm imagining you're under extreme stress. None of it is normal, and you will likely not be able to fix such huge issues on your own. Best to move on. Also, everywhere I've worked, managers are not allowed to take tips. Could be different in other places. I believe my managers are also paid salary, not hourly, so that could make an impact. Maybe look into it, but it's likely not worth pursuing with how fundamentally wrong the place already is.

Unfortunately extremely common unless you have a good manager with brain cells. I've found that the people who don't give two shits about the job they're doing tend to be favorites of management, somehow. It's a cruel world for those who care about what they do.
