It definitely just has a different meaning here
It’s not to have a drink right there and right then.

When I had drinks bought for me, I’d have them at a time that suited me, which was never while working.

You’re making it far more difficult than it actually is and describing scenarios that haven’t happened in over thirty years of visiting pubs, here or in Calgary.

They either ring it in and have it later or take the value of the drink.
