Dear Patrons,

Thank you for gracing our establishments with your presence. Since you’ll be annoying everyone in your vicinity for an indefinite amount of time, we’ve decided to share some insider tips to make the experience a bit nicer. It’s advice—and it’s on us.

There are numerous things that you, as a customer, do to piss bartenders off on a regular basis. Much of this should be common sense, but we’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you don’t realize it. Or you’re just that wasted. Because Complex understands the plight of the bartender, we’ve decided to share the 10 worst things you can do to a bartender. Hopefully you’ll take note. Immediately.

Sincerely,

Your Friendly Neighborhood Bartenders

P.S.—Don’t fuck with people in the service industry.
