Tell me more about these paper clips

Some customers like to touch my stuff. Technically it's not MY stuff. All the bartending tools belong to the restaurant, so maybe I should be zen about it. I'm not.

Yesterday a couple is at the bar. The guy calls me over. He is holding a jigger and a bar spoon,

"What are these for?"

I grab them from his hand and put them back on my bar mat.

"For making drinks."

"Is this to measure shots?"

"To measure anything."

"Oooh."

Bartending tools are shiny, odd shaped and begging to be played with, but I do not come to your office and fondle your stapler. As much as I would like to.

There seems to be some overlap with office supplies.
