So, we're waiting in the bar at the Empress Pavilion for Dim Sum today (for about an hour, but worth it) and I was dumbfounded to watch the barman pour the last remaining inch left in a bottle of Smirnoff into a bottle of Absolut!
 
He did this in full view of anyone who cared to watch and seemed oblivious to the idea that this might not be appropriate behavior.
 
Granted, this is more of a service bar than a cocktail lounge but, still in all, this is pretty outrageous conduct.
 
Does anyone have other examples to share of this kind of nonsense. I've always thought it was silly for people to order top shelf vodka for a Bloody Mary, since you could hardly taste the differnce through all the tomato juice, Worcestershire and Tabasco, but God help the poor fool who paid for an Absolut on the rocks.
