Why limit entitlement to simplistic alcoholic beverages?
Terrible take. I'm sure the whole tipout situation has been explained to you, and you might even understand it, but that is not the whole story. When I am working in a bar, I have a duty of care towards every single person in the bar and am liable for damages that may occur due to irresponsible service. Added to that, I am sometimes out in situations that could be physically harmful for me, but it is a part of my job to ensure everyone else's safety. I have paid for and taken courses in this regard, and there is more to it then you might think. You cannot compare someone tipping between licensed and unlicensed establishments.
