“Can I get you started off with something to drink,” does not mean
“Can I get you a beer, glass of wine, or a vodka tonic?” It simply
means, would you like something to FUCKING drink? A soda, a fucking
water, ice tea? I dont know a fucking Arnold Palmer?? So fuck the
customers who answer “nothing” to this question or even worse fuck the
customers who answer “oh no I’m fine I will just have a water!!!”

right! A “drink” is something in liquid form that you swallow! why do they ALWAYS assume you mean alcohol? seriously I hate these people!
Alcoholic drinks cost more than pop, juice or water. The more they order, the higher the bill, and (hopefully) the higher tip. I would think one would want the customer to rack up a large bill.
Yeah, Pierre, I suppose a server will be HOPING for an expensive order, but the fact remains that “Would you like a drink?” means “Would you like some liquid in a glass?”. Even if some preteens are getting burgers at a fast food joint, they are asked if they want a drink. If a mom sees her toddler in the hallway at midnight, she’ll likely ask “Do you need a drink?” It doesn’t necessarily mean booze!
If a waitress is trying to push booze, she’ll say “Can I get you something from the bar?” or “Would you be interested in knowing our cocktail specials?”
Anyone who wants water, is wanting a DRINK.
I think a similar pet peeve would be “What would you like to eat?”…”Oh, we aren’t eating. We’ll just get some dessert” *eye roll* Whattaya gonna do with the dessert, rub it in your hair? No. I think you just might be planning to EAT it! LOL!
OK, you guys are f*cked. If you ask someone what they want to drink, and they *gasp* GIVE YOU THEIR FUCKING DRINK ORDER, be it non-alcoholic or not, then they are answering your question. Don;t be such f*cktards and complain when they… wait for it… ORDER A DRINK! Get a different job if a customer specifies what they want to drink when you ask them, and you can’t handle it. That’s like complaining that you have to mow a lawn if your job is, in fact, mowing lawns.
