Been there, done that. (still do to some degree). Unfortunately in Vegas, instead of getting a college degree, people prefer the service industry because they end up making more money - atleast until their feet & knees & old age take over. I've seen lots of ignorant customers in Vegas & lots of ignorant bartenders- who for some strange reason think they are better than the customers because they learned how to pour a drink. People come to Vegas to forget their problems & stress at home. You are there to make them feel good. It's not about you. TIPS? Tips are EARNED - Amount depends on whether you're worth it. If you can't understand that, perhaps you should go and get an education and complain in another line of work - IF you can find a job. --- you obviously are not tough enough for customer service work.

While I think that anyone who has to vent this much needs a friend or maybe just stronger drinks at the end of each night to forget, I think non-service folk should see this as a learning tool. Bartenders don't come into your office and act rude or disrespectful, so don't come into their bars and be rude to them. Understanding is necessary at times from both sides. And, kjs, these people don't hate their jobs, and get through the day just fine, they just get annoyed when people act like morons (as most people in most lines of work do).

Or even better, the customer that asks every waiter in the joint for something, one right after the other, so he ends up with 20 people bringing him sugar/lemons/whatever the hell the impatient jerk just couldn't wait for! Maybe the greatest pet-peeve in this town, and purely for a guests safety, having them ask for a hot towel to wipe their hands on after coming from a dirty casino...uh, the bathroom is 20 feet away, perhaps you might want to use soap?!

Which made me very confused as to why tips were hardly mentioned in the rant. I have seen pretty much every scenario above and can say that many are extremely frustrating, and some are just downright befuddling. And for those of you servers who hate the "I know the owner" one, get out a piece of paper and ask "What's your name so I can let him/her know you came in to help support them." That'll shut them up.
