3 Bar Etiquette Mistakes Bartenders Say You Should Avoid For Better Service

There’s an unspoken code at the bar—and if you’ve ever wondered why a bartender seems less than thrilled to serve you, you may have broken it. Manners go a long way. You don’t want to demand a drink (no matter how long a day you’ve had), and you don’t want to forget to say thank you.

For a county larger than many states, that is not a curiosity. It is evidence that a huge share of the decision was already made while campaign ads were still running and while Election Day itself remained a week of ordinary errands.
