Lindercles 0 #5 January 2, 2009 Without knowing more about your situation, it's impossible to say. Blowjobs are actually a pretty good reason. Another possible reason is this: If you don't make women pay for their drinks, women come to your bar. If there are women in your bar, men come to your bar and spend money. It's simple business, really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone experienced that? I tip pretty well on comped drinks. When I lived in NYC and frequented bars more often, I would typically tip an extra $2 or 3 per free drink. If the full price drinks cost $10 or 12 than it's a bargain for me. Most of the bartenders at places I frequented knew they would go home with more in their pocket if they hooked me up once in a while.Killing threads since 2004.

My guess it was in appreciation of a 15% gratuity on a to go order. People often don't tip on to go orders.Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!
