Bartender Rant #8
If I only had a dollar for every time the place is mostly empty, yet people go sit at the only dirty table. Unless it's an especially good table, why do people do this? Do they enjoy sitting on other people's crumbs and looking at their gamey leftovers and crusty napkins? Now I have to clean it up around you. God that's annoying.
You're at the bar, doing your thing, and you leave your drink behind to go do whatever. Not a full drink, mind you, but a mostly empty drink that is by now mainly melted ice or an inch of flat beer. And it sits there. So your server, whose job is to keep the bar clean, busses it. Then you go back to where you were, notice your drink is gone, and bust a gut. "You stole it! You stole my drink!" Yeah dude, I'm auctioning it on Ebay as we speak. Now you're demanding another one, free of course. Sure, the "theft" of your milimeters of backwash really entitle you to a full free drink. If you still wanted it, why did you abandon it? I especially love it when customers who actually left the premises come back in and do this. Best part is, if the server didn't bus it, she's accused of being lazy and not doing her job. Really fair, huh? Sure is nice of you to put her in that situation. Since you must have every last droplet of your drink, how about you keep it with you, or finish that last little bit before you wander off? Wow, what a concept. By the way, only a complete shithead would call someone a "theif" over that.
