Uncle Psychosis Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 1 hour ago, Cardinal Richelieu said: I used to work with a guy (a total arsepiece btw)... we used to go for drinks after work - say about 6 of us. He was drinking vodka and cokes while the rest of us were on pints, so invariably he'd be finished long before us. After about 3 rounds he was obviously a bit fed up at waiting 10 minutes to get his next drink so he'd offer to get the drinks in. But instead of just getting the round in, he would ask each of the people who'd already bought him a drink what they were having, and steadfastly ignore anyone who was yet to get their round in. This put everyone out of sync round-wise ... and of course, the guys who had yet to get their round in - not being wankers - would buy a round for everyone - and vodka+cokeguy would happily jump on board. At which point he'd leave. So on the surface, everyone had bought one round of drinks - but the sneaky fucker had managed to save a few quid by only buying 2/3rds of a round. Not the worst behaviour on the Jimmy Savile scale - but it still rankles me to this day. That's proper dickhead behaviour but six people is probably too many for a round, especially on a work night. Two rounds of three makes it much less likely that someone gets hard done by either way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
