Went in on a busy night, the bartenders were clearly busy. Went up to the bar and was waiting about 15 minutes patiently to be helped (which I am completely okay with). I was next in line, however the bartender was definitely in the weeds, and I thought he might miss me and move on to another customer. I've worked in restaurants and know that I've done that plenty of times. I tried to get his attention with a friendly wave, smile, and "Hey man!" He responded with, "Yea no way I'm taking your drink order after that shit." Shocked, I said, "What did I do wrong?" He says "You don't fucking wave at me!" I don't really see what is wrong with politely getting someones attention, it's not like I snapped at the guy or anything, but regardless I didn't want to cause a scene so I said, "I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be rude, I just thought you may have missed me." He says, "Yea well you ARE being fucking rude! I SEE YOU, okay? I SEE YOU!" I just said, "Well jeez man I do genuinely apologize if I offended you that was not my intention." He proceeded to grumpily say fine and ask me what I wanted. I just wanted a beer. It took him all of two seconds to grab it. Still tipped the guy anyway. Extremely rude bartender on a power trip.
