Customers rally around beloved waitress stiffed by white couple who ‘don’t tip black people’

Raw Story

Kelly Carter waited on a white couple Saturday during a breakfast shift at Anita’s New Mexico Style Café in Ashburn, but they left a racist note instead of gratuity, reported WJLA-TV.

“Great service don’t tip black people,” read the handwritten note.

Carter said the couple, who appeared to be in their 20s, didn’t behave differently than any other customer and gave no indication they were unhappy with her service, and she said the woman even complimented the food.

“He didn’t hurt me, he only hurt himself — he only makes me stronger,” said Carter, who added that she’d be willing to wait on the couple again. “Just me serving them will let them know they did not get the best of me — and I truly mean that.”


What the hell is wrong with people?
