It takes 10 seconds to fill that glass of beer or 20 seconds to use the liquor gun to put together a drink. By all means, let me use the gun. I'll mix it myself!

I've never really felt the need to tip bartenders using drink guns either. The few bars that I've frequented more than once have all been little Irish type joints and the bartenders were really cool people and definitely deserved a good tip.
