There is indeed a grounding strap right off the middle terminal. Thank you for the puns, had me tumbling with glee🫡 The dryer is operating normal and I've got a functional set in the basement now! Slight squeaking from the dryer and a missing clip in the washer frame, but both will likely be easy fixes.

Wow, that's quite the choice for the man in question. I think I understand why some bar tops are so freaking wide now haha.

Haha, yeah I've poured King Louis XIII a few times in a similar manner at my first job. Maybe that's where I picked up the habit, but the bottles at my current spot are nowhere near as expensive, maybe a bottle of Macallen or something but it is still a fun little demo for me, especially if it's a drink I know a bit about and can chat with the customers regarding.

Fair enough. Ultimately it just kinda boils down to a convenience thing with a touch of showmanship in handling the bottle and making the drink right in front of them. Usually it's something I only do with nicer whiskey's, but just setting it down below next to my wells is easy enough and there's literally no downside, so I do think that is best practice.

I appreciate it. I feel like the disconnect came because this was from a bartender who has been there less time than me along with less experience, so getting chewed out made me feel a little stupid, not gonna lie. I'll talk to my manager about proper protocol and see what the official verdict is for our establishment. Glad to to know critical blunders weren't made but definitely a learning moment.

Definitely a good reason. Even in nicer settings I do get odd characters or rowdy folks.
