What's she supposed to do? Look for something less obvious? It's a quick note to help her remember the table. Nothing to lose her job over.
If a customer was a man with one arm, what would you write for reference?
"Man with brown hair"?
The woman who complained about being called 'black' should look in the mirror. Maybe she thinks she is white.

Yeah, it could be that they aren't actually complete. A little sun time and they might get darker.

I don't see why not. The former description didn't help Dr. Kimble any.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

A total over reaction. But given the race climate we have now, the resturant owner probably didn't have much of a choice.
The waitress should have been able to remember the table number, but maybe she was new and didn't have a handle on the number scheme yet.
Again, over reaction by all involved including the customer (but then again, they are always right).
