I went into Legends this past Sunday for the Laker game, and noticed something weird about the pour spouts on there bottles, I asked the bartender to see it, and he showed me what is a microchip pour spout to regulate there pours, I being a local bartender couldn't help but laugh. Big Brother can stay out of my bar. As a seasoned bartender I can assure you that occassionally topping off a drink for a good customer only maximizes profits. Patrons stay longer, spend more & come back. If a certain bartender is over pouring to attempt to maximize his or her tips, the other bartenders WILL report it because it puts them in the position of having to explain why they too have to ask the manager for another bottle of brand X booze even though they have only sold a minimal amount from the last bottle. Customers will quickly avoid bars that use this technology, bartenders will go elsewhere & naive owners who over invested in this mistrustful technology will go bankrupt trying to pay for it. Why would I want to work for someone who ? assumes ? I?m untrustworthy?
