Same reaction as you. You know eventually they can't drink them all, there working, they don't wanna get wasted... And why would i waste money on something that will pretty much give me nothing? A dancer i can understand if you think you gonna have a better lapdance, lol, but a barmaid? Nah... no point at all. To me paying a barmaid sounds like giving a tip to an officer that just gave you a ticket...
Sorry but for me it was a first ( or that i heard about the water thing)...i have to say for a barmaid cause i always tips then paying them drink!!!..!Sounds i was a fool to pay ..MY BAD...But no need to put my nose in it and rub it...
P.S.Trust me i learn my lesson of being nice on that part
