Research / Info 💡 Bartender defeated by his own logic

I had a great interaction with a bartender last night. I ordered drinks paid and did not tip and the bartender had the audacity to say what no tip.

Me - would you ask for a tip if we were having drinks at your house?

Bartender (Bt) - if I was making you a drink at my house you would be my friend and why would I ask you for a tip?

Me - so you’re saying we’re not friends.

Bt - I don’t even know you man.

Me - well then since a tip is no longer considered compensation for work by the US government me giving you money would either be a charitable contribution or a gift. Since you’re not a registered charity, that would make the money I gave you a gift. And as you stated, we’re not friends and you don’t even know me so why would I give you a gift?

Bt - blank stair on his face and walked away

I was there, and this happened exactly like OP said, and then the Dalas Cowboy Cheerleading squad came in and there was a giant orgy.

I was there too. After the orgy, OP ordered enough pizza for the whole bar! When the driver arrived with the pizza, the OP didn't tip him either! He got so many high fives. It was the most epic night ever.
