+1 to being rude to service staff Also MAGA apparel or citing Jesus/God constantly

It depends. I run a bar and also frequent bars. I see a lot of behavior from wait staff I'd fire them for. Wait staff endlessly bitch about customers but its a two way street, staff develops a blind spot to their own behavior due to spending so much time in a bar.

Bro they are working in a high intensity environment. You are there to have fun. They are talking behind your back. (So how does that affect you?) Versus actively being a jerk to someone just doing their job (which is, unfortunately, to engage with you). It's not the same.

Are you really trying to explain running a bar to me? Anyways your answer is horseshit. I work in that high intensity environment and see the blinders go on. Innocuous requests by customers turn into staff acting like it's a massive imposition. They openly talk to me because they've been at my bar, served by me, and I know who's I'd hire and I wouldn't from the free talk.
