I don't tip...
Mr Blond So you don't care that they're counting on your tip to live?
Mr Pink Do you know what this is? It's the world's smallest violin, playing just for the waitresses.
Mr White You don't have any idea what you're talking about. These people bust their ass. This is a hard job.
P So's working at McDonalds, but you don't feel the need to tip them. They're servin' ya food, you should tip 'em. But no, society says tip these guys over here, but not those guys over there. That's bullshit.
Mr Pink has a good point here. Tipping is a big part of why anyone would work in the food service industry, and yet we are highly inconsistent in this matter.
Mr Blue They work harder than the kids at McDonalds.
P Oh yeah, I don't see them cleaning fryers.
Another good point. Table staff work long hours for little pay, but there are others working in the smae industry who have much more unpleasant working conditions.
B These ladies are taxed on the tips they make. When you stiff'em, you cost them money.
W Waitressing is the number one occupation for female non-college graduates in this country. It's the one job basically any woman get, and make a living on. The reason is becasue of tips.
Mr White makes a very strong case in favour of tipping. Mr Pink doesn't have ready answer, instead he sticks to his principles:
P Fuck all that.
A little later, Joe returns from paying the bill, and notices that the tip is a dollar short.
Joe You don't tip? Why?
Mr Orange He don't believe in it.
J (to Orange)He don't believe in it. (to Pink) You don't believe in it?
O Nope.
J (to O) Shut up! (to P) Cough up your buck, ya cheap bastard, I payed for your goddamn breakfast.
I smacked one of my roommates friends on the back of the head last week for giving the Pita Pit delivery guy a 7 cent tip and took 3 dollars from his pocket so I can give it to that guy next time he comes to deliver... I don't think he likes me anymore

It's not a race thing, unless you consider being a celebrity a different race.
There are a lot of celebs in my area and I can tell you that if they can get away with it - they'll not pay the bill at all - they want to be "comped" for everything so getting a tip, is a joke.

tipping is customary in the United States.
it's factored into comp for waitstaff and other service industries.
if you paid attention to dullboys posts, you would know that dullboy owns or partners in various service establishments in nyc and gets out plenty. too much, probably.
Taken from Froders (the most recognized international travel insdustry guide):
United States
At restaurants, a 15% tip is standard for waiters; up to 20% may be expected at more expensive establishments. The same goes for taxi drivers, bartenders, and hairdressers.
Coat-check operators usually expect $1; bellhops and porters should get $1 per bag; hotel maids in upscale hotels should get about $1 per day of your stay.
A concierge typically receives a tip of $5 to $10, with an additional gratuity for special services or favors.
On package tours, conductors and drivers usually get $10 per day from the group as a whole; check whether this has already been figured into your cost.
For local sightseeing tours, you may individually tip the driver-guide $2-$5 if he or she has been helpful or informative. Ushers in theaters do not expect tips.
