I agree. My experience has been the same. When I was a bar novice, I would ask for drinks that the bar tender never heard of and they would get rather ticked off. I can only imagine that from their standpoint, it is a waste of time to stand around and try to dictate a drink recipe while you could be mixing and making mor $$ in that amount of time. But, I've asked a few bartenders, who know me as a semi-regular, to mix a few custom drinks and they have no problem with it.
