Being treated like a machine

(bartending in the UK)

Been getting really tired of people "inputting" their order and being confused and/or irritated when I have follow up questions. The other day a girl was kept shouting "no, stop!" at me, about four times, because she thought I was making her drink wrong. Finally I snapped "it's not yours!" and her whole entourage took a step back. It's like they really thought I would just stand there and be shouted at without reacting.

A woman ordered a gin and tonic with the question "does it come in a big glass?" Ma'am, do you mean "could you put it in a big glass?" It doesn't come at all unless I make it

Thanks for letting me vent :)
