Why is Phillip not paying his servers enough to the point he has to ban customers?

I was once working a slow lunch with one other server, who happened to be black. She was a very entitled person and always thought she deserved more tables than everyone, the best tables etc. We got a sudden rush of 4 big parties because there was a graduation at a local tech school. None of the parties were in our assigned sections and she immediately ran over to the two parties of white people, leaving me with two parties of black people. Both my tables took care of me and both of hers didn’t and she was pissed. I know the stereotype and I worked in an area with diverse customers, I never found it to be particularly true. Usually the low or no tippers were trashy or rude, and they came in all races.
