If you are going to walk out on your tab, at least dress boringly.

I had a walkout on a $40 tab--- FIVE ROUNDS OF DRINKS.

The girl was wearing a very distinctive dress. We referred to them as "the couple where the girl is wearing the gorgeous blue and white dress." We'd had them move to another room because of a private party and then comped them a round of drinks for their trouble.

But this is even better: the girl was walking towards me in the bar, and I go, "Oh! Do you need your tab?"

And she goes, "Oh, no, I'm just going to the bathroom."


We have had so many walkouts this week (four), that we have made it a policy to take credit cards with the first round order.

 Also I had a guy leave me his $1.25 in change. His bill was $38.75, and he gave me $40. So I gave him his change back. This was at 1:30, right when I gave last call.

At 1:50, he asks me for a Bud Light.

I say, "Sorry, I gave last call 20 minutes ago."

Then, HE GOES UP TO THE BARTENDER and asks for one.

He pays for just the beer.
