The baby-faced kid's instincts are correct-- this bartender never turns down a payment. In a place like the City, anyone who has to competence to ask for a drink deserves one. Multiples, even.

That is, however, his humble opinion. It's merely a perk when the client is early enough that their drinks may have otherwise been free. He doesn't bother to inquire, just pours the vodka.

"Had any luck at the tables tonight?"
