Why would a bartender nor charge for a drink?!


Question: Why would a bartender nor charge for a drink!?
Ok, what do you make of this!?
I went for a drink with two friends in a bar where we never had been before, and had a couple of drinks!. I paid for the first round, then we ran a tab, and when we asked for the bill, one of my drinks wasn' t on it, but my friends got charged for all of the ones they had!. I mentioned the missing drink to the bartender but he refused to charge me for it!. I don' t quite get it, as I didn' t tip him when I paid for the first round, so he had no reason to be nice with me!. Was he just forgetful or shall I go back in the hope of getting more free drinks :) !?Www@FoodAQ@Com

He was probably just forgetful and didn't want to trouble himself fixing it!. I had the same experience at Wal Mart yesterday!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
