They’re trying to give you more for your money, which is usually what people want

this is rarely a problem. i find most drinks are just overpriced soft drinks.

Because alcoholism is pretty rampant and regular drinkers will complain if their drink is too weak.

This is also why I don't generally order cocktails. It's like drinking a giant shot.

Bartender is looking out for social security solvency.

Most people want more for their money. By pouring extra, the bar tender is giving the customer what most people would be excited about. In return, the customer would give the bartender a good tip.

I let the ice melt and drink it watered down in that situation.

Because she is kind and that’s what she assumed you wanted! Or maybe she wanted a tipsy tip

Just left a happy hour. Wanted only one quick drink with some colleagues before heading to daughter’s event at school. Bartender absolutely poured a TRIPLE shot over the rocks when I just ordered a simple bourbon and she charged me practically nothing. Now I’m sort of bombed waiting for my daughter’s event to begin.
