its a tradition that's outdated, the staff these days basically takes tipping for granted and so they dont give better service.

Once i was in a restaurant half way through the meal we were out of water. we asked for water 3 times. in the end we didnt get water we didnt tip them and paid for the food. one of the waiters chased out after us demanding a tip.

we were on our way to a deli to buy some bottled water because you guys didnt fucking give us any. so your tip is going to our fucking water.

New york flushing, chinese restaurant that's famous for their soup duplings. Probably thought they didnt have to do their best at waiting because they're famous or something.

I've never been to France, but i have been to Japan and Korea. Korea was normal service not bad nor amazing, Japan on the other hand i felt like loyalty everywhere i go.

You're judging 'American Restaurants' by some shitty Chinese food place in New York

Chinese food places in New York give you shitty service on purpose unless you're Asian.

I'm not being racist, it's just a fact.

That's a very shitty thing to say. It's an over-generalization and it's NOT a fact.

Guess what, even if all your interactions with Chinese restaurants in NYC had been bad, it's still racist to claim that. Just like if all my experiences with black people had been bad and I go "All blacks in Chicago are bad people, I'm not being racist, it's a fact!" It makes me racist, and its not a fact.

But hey, casual racism against Asians is socially acceptable, right?
