    Bartenders spill the beans on Gen Z's 'annoying' drink-by-drink payment habit. well it keeps the bar honest, harder for them to pad the bill… In my day it was cash per drink. NO CC's, I quit Drinking and Smoking over 50 years ago…..Anyone who smokes an or Drinks / Drugs are really stupid people, Quit and live a much better life.

    Working at Northern Exposure?
    Did he mean acting in Northern Exposure. Or did he mean working on the set of Northern Exposure? And is Alaska considered the mid-west?

    The guys a dickhead in the wrong business if he’s the owner of that place, he better have a hell of a good location because he’s going to drive the customers out faster than they come in !

    Sorry bartenders have bad customers but can we get automation to speed things up? That'll help out during busy times. I just want my drink … don't really wanna talk to the bartender much (if at all) 😛

    Customer – "What wines have you got?"

    Me – We actually have around 20 different types of wine..

    *I give them a menu

    Customer – "I'll have a white wine"

    *I then have to ask what type and measure

    "large, of course hahahahahaha"

    *yeh.. I can't legally just give you a large, you have to request it.

    As a former bartender, albeit in the UK, this hits home. Mercifully most of my customers were fine but, every now and again, someone had to put 50p into the dickhead.

    Great job Charlie! I bartended for a while, heard most of these from customers plus more. After a while, it gets old and you actually start spouting off what you really think! When they asked for a "beer", if we were slammed, I'd pour them a Old Style on tap.

    Going from being a beach and city bartender to a small town bartender gave me the freedom to just say whatever I want. He's just a little more obtuse.

    These ARE all the things we think about. And that nose oil trick is a real thing.
