She returns and says I have you down for two crown and cokes from me and two from the other waitress then two beers from me again. Did she really think I was that lit from that small amount of alcohol? I asked if she mistakenly made the drinks doubles or something and she said no that I drank 4 mixed drinks before switching to beers. This is exactly why I hate going out I am already overpaying for drinks in most cases then over and over people try to pull this shit. I give props to the legit business owners but it is so hard to keep a watch on all the employees (if the owners even care). What does this girl gain by this? overcharge me almost 15 dollars to get 15% of that as a tip? I will now punish all waitresses by making them ring out every drink order separately.

(sorry not directing this to you specifically, I'm just saying I would spend more or be less careful of my spending if I could order a round for me and friends from a vending type machine or some other automated system)
I totally understand what you mean. That should not happen and if it does, you need to call the manager and she needs to be on notice. Unless the owners are shady like that. Then you never go back to that bar.

I had an invention idea to do something like you wanted for Hotel Pool Sides. All on computers and you order it, pay it and they just bring it.

But it's on my list of ideas.
