We used to joke that none of us were prejudiced till we started waiting. <br /><br />I also agree that I hate the thought of being stereotyped myself because of other people ruining my "category's" reputation. As a young mom I know almost every waiter I get takes one look at me in my flip flops, my fiance in his ratty Converses, and our baby carrier, and does a mental "Fuck this shit" motion. Or a real one in the kitchen, out of my eyesight. <br /><br />We make it a point to tip our servers, baristas, even our Sonic CarHops (who also only make 2.13 an hour) very generously, and we prebus the table as much as we can for them too, to offset the young people, parents or not, who ruin our reputation. We order water and skip the appetizer if that's what it takes to be able to leave a great tip. At Christmastime we also leave a pack of cigarettes and an ABC store giftcard. <br /><br />I've also had to write apology notes and leave "sorry my 20-something-year-old friend is a cheap ass" tip increases, because there's a reason stereotypes exist, and for some reason I'm friends with quite a few.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-26068458798954030432013-03-24T14:11:53.403-04:002013-03-24T14:11:53.403-04:00is it good to choose tattoos designsaccording to y...is it good to choose <a href="http://tattoosdesignsx.com" rel="nofollow">tattoos designs</a>according to your racetattoos designshttp://tattoosdesignsx.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-29442215135909540692013-02-25T01:37:08.292-05:002013-02-25T01:37:08.292-05:00Hahaha. this reminds me of our crazy man.

My wife and I both served in our younger days and always respect the crazy, challenge that often-unacknowledged waiters face as they take care of their customers!<br /><br />20% and a smile for good service is typical . . . plus more for anything extra (dealing with our young'un; free seltzer re-fills; take-aways).<br />.<br />And the racist thing? WTF?! Who cares {"I didn't know you were 1/4 Italian")? We all come from someplace and it's who we are right now that matters!<br />.<br />Btw, I used to live in Texas and know that many many Texans with Mexican heritage are part of the "first families of Texas" and should be proud of it. Texas wouldn't be such a great State if it wasn't for its cultural and economic ties with Mexico.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10989778489774801633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-44592670294643463792013-02-14T12:55:19.817-05:002013-02-14T12:55:19.817-05:00Personally I find a huge difference between being ...Personally I find a huge difference between being racist and making stereotypes. If my friend says "I got jewed" or "Stacey must be a horrible driver" (she's Korean) we are making jokes amongst friends using stereotypes. I make jokes like that all the time but obviously not unless I know someone. I told my gay buddy Calvin about Louis C.K.'s routine on gays (I won't use the word here b/c I don't know you) and he thought it was funny too.

Please hate me if you love him.)<br /><br />just the other day:<br /><br />"ohhhh, you must have some Mexican in you somewhere Colleen! You LOVE chilies!"<br /><br />I'm like, "dude... I'm so white the whites of my eyes look dark. I like chilies." "NO, I don't drink milk. What's the problem? stop looking at me like a confused dog."<br /><br />And my next thought was "Since when do Mexican's determine their genes solely by chili consumption?" <br /><br />The whole thing felt like such a weird race interaction, but I suppose he could have been making reference to heritage... <br /><br />Then I just laughed and went to finish rolling, because it's true, we are all a little racist.

What really gets my panties in a bunch is when people act and encourage a said negative stereotype about their race/religion/gender/sexuality/age group. I refuse to ever become one of the toddy, look my nose down, catty middleaged women (see a stereotype):) And since I would appear as a skinny bitch from far, I make sure to be super nice, super patient and super tipping.
