To be totally honest, it was so long ago, I don't remember what color the card was. It was a corporate card. She'd just never seen one before. *sigh* This was before they integrated the schools, and boy wasn't that fun. The only "black" problem in the exchange was the color of the gentleman that handed it to her. I totally believe that if the customer had been white, we wouldn't have had that problem at all.
A little while after that, I got to make change for Frankie Valli. I also got to listen to a bass player (I wish I could remember the name of the famous guy he was playing with, but I can't) rant because he couldn't get served a cup of coffee. When I finally smiled and said "feel better now?" he grinned at me. I went back to the kitchen, got a bunch of coffee, and he spent half the day leaning against the counter talking to me.
I really sucked at having a misspent youth. Coffee and conversation with rock musicians. *sigh* If I only knew then what I know now....
