Bar staff are people too! If someone bought you a pint and then brought it over to you would you be ok with that? What were they doing immediately before and during the drink being poured?

Where? Sometimes they don't get a proper break and need to eat on shift, happened to me several times
They're only working a matter of hours, they probably don't qualify for a break.
When I did bar work I regularly did 10 hour shifts
I assume we're talking about match day at the Valley?
Oh I see, I assumed it was industry wide
Industry wide, someone doing a ten hour shift should have somewhere to sit down and have a break/something to eat.
Yes you’d think wouldn’t you! But unfortunately not always so, was usually when someone phoned in sick or didn’t turn up, the person on shift then took over from themselves and carried on, this doesn’t schedule in any kind of proper break; and the pub full of blokes having a midlife crisis strangely don’t seem to want to wait while one is taken.

Slippery slope...
hope that helps
maybe make some bunk beds in the beer cellar and just keep all bar staff there 24/7 and tazer them if they try and leave

Kebab and chips, in the back while someone's having a heart attack. No problem at all.
