Went to an Italian restaurant to get a quick lunch/dinner pizza before checking out of my hotel and going to the airport.
Waitress walks up and asks "can I get you started with something". I reply "just water is fine". She wants to know "sparkling or still or tap". As soon as I hear the first two options I immediately start to answer "still" before processing that there is a third choice. As she walks I say I think to myself that maybe I should've gone with tap, but I figure it's okay, I can pay a few bucks for a small water bottle.
She comes back with a full freshly opened liter (1.06qt) water bottle and pours me a glass. I think to myself "surely not...".
Having drank exactly one glass of water by the time I'm done with my pizza, the check comes out and sure enough, Acqua 8.00.
I ask "you're charging me for the whole bottle?"
"Yes, that's the only size we serve, sorry. But it's okay because, see, you can put the cap back on and take it with you". It's not a plastic cap. It doesn't actually seal.
I'm sure that will work great in my luggage.
Note that every table in this restaurant has a small size bottle on it (probably .3 liters or there about) of this exact same brand, with a flower in it.
Anyway, am I the idiot for not realizing that I was going to get a full bottle? I would've hoped she might say something like "since you're just by yourself, are you sure you want to order a whole liter bottle of water?"
But nope.
Anyway, it's fine, just mildly infuriating to me.
