NJ Diner Leaves Anti-Gay 'Tip' for Lesbian Waitress

[yuiyoshida]

A New Jersey waitress and former Marine says she was "offended" after a customer left an anti-gay note on a check in place of a tip because she is a lesbian.

Dayna Morales, a server at Gallop Asian Bistro in Bridgewater, N.J., said a family dining at the restaurant Wednesday night skipped the tip on their $93.55 bill and scribbled an explanation why.

1. How are all these customers determining the sexual orientation of their servers? . . .

I just can't wrap my mind around it.

I can't, even with reasonable doubt, conclude much of anything about another human being in the very few minutes they might be next to me while they take my food and drink order. There's just not enough interaction, not enough time, to learn much of anything about a server beyond "are they pleasant?", and more importantly, "can they do their job"? And even there, I cut waitstaff a lot of slack, since I don't know everything going on for them at that moment.

Damn. I'd make a terrible bigot.

4. Despicable.

People with no class should be forced to wear a sign in public, "I have no class". Just to warn the rest of us.
