What do you do when a customer offers to give you a alcoholic beverage???

I had a case this weekend where the customer poured me a triple shot of vodka...not once but twice...

how the hell do you get out of drinking it? after it has already been poured??

You lose professionalism, offer to have one another time off duty. I'm sorry Mr. customer but I have other appointments that I need to do and the alcohol will effect how I clean. All you need is the word out that your company drinks while working. But its your choice.

I'll also add...he felt bad...didn't have any more cash for a tip...so he was telling me to put 20 bucks on his CC...I refused told him that was ok...

So then he insisted that I should at least have a drink for the amazing job I did...

how can you refuse the request of a dying man
