    It’s like the one person did it once and since then everyone has followed

    How does one person form a queue?

    But, yes, everyone else following is definitely how it would happen.

    I don’t see the problem here.

    Does it decrease profits when people are served in an orderly fashion?

    Edit - genuinely, I don’t understand. Why the downvote?

      Service takes longer because bar staff can’t handle multiple orders at once, and if there’s multiple staff it takes additional time to get them to come round.

      Doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to adjust how you serve to accommodate having a queue though

        But that doesn’t make sense. First in line gets the first bartender available, who takes the order, fulfils, and takes payment. Next in line please?

          That’s less efficient than having a stack of 3-4 orders you can work on, this is true in many jobs, and I assume true in bartending as that’s the standard worldwide.
