Taking A Cheap Shot

(I am tending bar for company with 600 in attendance, so I can’t serve in glasses as we can’t wash them that fast. A customer asks for a shot of whiskey, which I very generously free pour, for which this private club is/was famous. Of course in a 10 oz plastic cup it does look anemic.)

Customer: *in a loud booming voice* “When I order a f****** shot of booze, I expect a f****** shot of booze.”

(So, I turn and pick up a shot glass and pour it full from his plastic cup. I then dump about the same amount out of same cup into the sink. Finally, I pour the shot glass back into the cup and inform him:)

Me: “There you go, sir. You now have your f****** shot of whiskey.”

(He did not complain the rest of the evening.)
