I know that you definitely treat customers differently according to how much they've tipped you in the past. (speed of service, friendliness, patience, etc). And this is fine, I totally understand!
But do you treat different types of people differently, based on how much you EXPECT from their "Type"?
For example, a 55 year old black woman tips $1 on a breakfast tab for coffee and bagel totalling $5.25. (Assuming you found this tip fair, just for example)
Would you expect a 30 year old white man to tip more than that? And if so, would you let your disappointment show toward him next time you saw him?
I really don't mean to sound racist, but those in the food service business cannot deny my example.
To put my question most basically, "Is a certain tip acceptable for some and not for others"? (Assuming you don't know who's rich or poor, because you probably don't).
