Customers often visit the same bars frequently for the same cocktails, and they look for them to be served in their specialty glasses. “Those people aren’t going to be happy when I say, ‘Hey, we can’t serve that cocktail because we don’t have enough glasses for it because everyone keeps stealing it.’” When glassware runs low, service slows down. Ultimately, “If you are interested in a glass, feel free to ask the bartender. A lot of places will sell you glassware,” she says.
Badass Bartender might make a compelling argument, but the internet might not be buying it. As of this writing, HaleyDito’s TikTok has 895.7K likes, while Badass Bartender’s longer, second video has 79.4K likes, although, notably, the latter was posted about a month later. Comments are divided, too, with some TikTokers falling on HaleyDito’s side, and others on Badass Bartender’s side. User Hazza writes, “Take that glass miss ma’am and tip your bartender well. Karen will be okay!” However, TikToker Halee also stands in criticism of HaleyDito’s behavior. “As a former bartender, don’t. You don’t get paid when you’re out of glassware to make drinks and guests leave. This was always the worst,” Halee wrote (via Daily Dot).
In the end, Badass Bartender stands firm with her plea. “Don’t do that. Just overall, don’t steal glassware.”

Then, impressively, she goes point-by-point, claiming first that many drinks are designed to be served in certain glasses based on measurements of ice and liquor, therefore, they cannot be served in other glasses when the primary glass goes missing.
