What Are the Obligations of a Bartender to His Patrons?
FACTS John Campbell, age twenty-two, was recently hired as a management trainee for the Stanton Hotel. The Stanton features a health club, swimming pool, ski slopes, and boating facilities. The management trainee program is an eighteen-month program during which the trainees rotate jobs to gain exposure to all phases of hotel operations. There is no formal orientation, and each trainee is randomly assigned to jobs.
John's first assignment was at the restaurant/bar working with Mr. Arnold, a bartender who was fifty years old and quite experienced. Mr. Arnold commented to John that John was lucky to be working the bar during the skiing season. Mr. Arnold explained that skiers frequently come in from the slopes to warm up. He told John that all tips are shared equally and that the more it snows and the colder it gets, the better the bar business.
One day, John observed that Mr. Arnold was serving drinks to two young men who appeared to be about twenty-two or twenty-three. John overheard the men planning to ski an hour or so more and then drive over to meet friends at a neighboring hotel. One of the men appeared self-contained and unaffected by the drinks. His friend, however, was gradually getting louder, although he was not making a disturbance.
John noticed that Mr. Arnold had already served three rounds of bourbon to the men. When Mr. Arnold was preparing the fourth round, John said to him, ''Don't you think they've had enough? They're going back on the slopes.'' Mr. Arnold replied, ''Kid, you've got a lot to learn.''
Social, Policy, and Ethical Considerations
Do the drinking companions bear an ethical responsibility for each other's drinking?
